About us
Humaans is building the next generation of infrastructure for the workplace; software designed for companies that are scaling fast, operating globally, and pushing into new boundaries. What started as a system of record has evolved into a broader platform for operating people globally. With Athena, our agentic AI layer, Humaans moves beyond data management into intelligent orchestration, connecting workflows across HR, IT, Finance, and Operations so organisations can act faster and with greater confidence, redefining how work gets done. We work with ambitious teams across Europe and the US, from AI-native companies like Lovable, Poolside, Fyxer AI, and Tandem Health, to established, high-growth organisations scaling internationally and through acquisition, including Quantexa, Sellpy, Manychat, Gigs, Croud, and Threecolts. These teams don’t buy software for features, they buy leverage. The ability to run faster, cleaner, and with more control as complexity compounds. To date, we’ve raised $20m in venture funding from some of the most respected founders, operators, and funds in technology: Lachy Groom (Physical Intelligence), Stewart Butterfield (Slack), Tobias Lütke (Shopify), Dylan Field (Figma), Jeff Weiner (LinkedIn), Claire Johnson (Stripe), Oliver Jay (OpenAI), Jay Simmons (Bond) as well as Y Combinator, Moonfire, Frontline Ventures, Pathlight Ventures, and Exor. If you have massive ambition and want to work on a hard problem, with a small team that moves fast, at a moment when the category is genuinely up for grabs - this is it.
The Role
After proving our product and operating model internationally, we're now expanding into the US from San Francisco. This role is about bringing Athena AI Agents there first. As Founding GTM Lead, you will own Athena’s commercial momentum in America. You’ll close our largest and most meaningful US logos, define how Athena is positioned and sold in the enterprise, and set the standard for what “great” looks like as we scale. This is a hands-on role with real ownership. You will run deals end to end, work directly with founders and product, and help shape the future US sales organisation - from messaging and motion to hiring and culture. You won’t be inheriting a playbook. You’ll be writing it. And the decisions you make here will compound for years.
What you’ll own
- End-to-end ownership of Athena revenue in the US
- Closing early-stage and design-partner deals with HR, Finance, Ops, and Transformation leaders
- Defining ICP (Ideal Customer Profile), segmentation, and positioning for the US market
- Creating the first Athena GTM assets: decks, demos, POVs (Points of View), outbound angles
- Acting as the voice of the customer back to Product and Engineering
- Establishing the cultural bar for US sales: urgency,...
Humaans helps companies move beyond rigid systems with a best-in-class HRIS and an Agentic AI Workforce that executes admin work end-to-end.
