Overview
Hi F44B from the Kombo team. Were looking to hire a People Operations Partner who will own our day-to-day people operations as we continue our next phase of growth. Your challenge is to build and run the operational backbone that enables Kombo to scale from 75 to 150 people while preserving the speed, culture and employee experience that got us here in the first place. Youll be the first dedicated owner of the People function, ensuring that Kombo remains a great place to work as we grow, without introducing unnecessary complexity or bureaucracy. This is a highly hands-on role. Youll be running core people processes, supporting employees and managers, and continuously improving how things work as the company evolves. In this role, youll operate much more like a builder than a traditional HR manager: youll identify friction, design practical solutions, implement them, and iterate over time. After 1224 months, you will have built and shaped the people operations foundation of one of Europes fastest-growing software companies experience that will be incredibly valuable for your future career. If you enjoy bringing structure to fast-moving environments and making things run smoothly behind the scenes, wed love to hear from you.
F4F1 About Kombo
Kombo is building the unified API for ATS, HR and payroll systems. Instead of companies spending months integrating with dozens of different systems, they can integrate once with Kombo and instantly connect to 100+ platforms. We abstract away the complexity of handling different data schemas, authentication methods, and API quirks. Since going through Y Combinator in 2022, we:
- Grew from 0 revenue to 10+ million ARR and hundreds of customers at a pace that puts us among the ~top 5% of VC-backed startups
- Scaled to process data for the equivalent of 20% of Germany's workforce
- Raised $30M+ from Y Combinator, 468 Capital, and other top-tier investors
- Grew to a team of 60+ working across Berlin and NYC
F440 The Opportunity
As companies grow, operational complexity grows with them. Every new hire, manager, process, office initiative, policy, and system creates additional complexity. Left unmanaged, this complexity slows companies down and creates frustration for employees and managers alike. We believe there is an enormous opportunity to build a people function that combines operational excellence with startup speed and an AI first mindset. Today, many of these responsibilities are distributed across founders, managers, recruiting, finance and external partners. While this worked decently so far,...
