Staff HR Business Partner

Tenstorrent is hiring a Staff HR Business Partner to advise senior leaders across its North America teams on organizational design, leveling, performance, calibration, and sensitive employee matters. The role owns people-related problems from start to finish and helps build the HRBP function as the company grows.

Responsibilities:

• As a Staff HR Business Partner, you'll work directly with senior leaders across our North America teams on the people side of that growth: org design, leveling, performance and calibration, sensitive employee matters, and the hard conversations in between
• You'll join a small HRBP team with no layers of specialists behind it
• You'll own problems from start to finish and help build how this function works as you go
• Get to the real cause of people problems. When leaders are frustrated with each other, find what's underneath (a missing role, an unowned handoff, unclear decision rights) and fix that
• Help leaders change how they work as the company grows, including on issues that cross into orgs you don't directly support
• Make org design, leveling, performance and promotion calls that are fair and hold up when they're challenged
• Get leaders who want different things to a decision they'll all carry out, and put the broader team's outcome ahead of any one client group

Requirements:

• An HRBP who has partnered directly with VP-level leaders and supported a full function or large org, ideally at a company somewhere between a few hundred and a few thousand people
• Hands-on. You've run investigations, calibration cycles, reorgs and sensitive exits yourself rather than handing them to a specialist team
• Willing to tell a senior leader something hard about their org, or about them, and then stay to help them act on it
• Curious about technical work. You can explain what your client org builds and why it's hard, and that understanding shows up in your people decisions
• Get to the real cause of people problems. When leaders are frustrated with each other, find what's underneath (a missing role, an unowned handoff, unclear decision rights) and fix that
• Help leaders change how they work as the company grows, including on issues that cross into orgs you don't directly support
• Make org design, leveling, performance and promotion calls that are fair and hold up when they're challenged
• Get leaders who want different things to a decision they'll all carry out, and put the broader team's outcome ahead of any one client group
• The offer may be contingent upon your citizenship/permanent residency status or ability to obtain prior license approval from the U.S. Commerce Department or applicable federal agency
• Experience supporting sales, go-to-market or operations teams is a plus
