Location: Los Angeles | On-Site — non-negotiable, local candidates only

SprintRay is seeking a business-first Human Resources executive who brings operational insight and HR expertise to the table. This leader will act as a strategic partner to the President and executive team—guiding HR initiatives that directly support business performance, growth, and cross-functional execution.

This role is more than HR—it’s about shaping business outcomes through people.

We’re looking for someone who can think like an executive, advise the C-suite, and translate strategy into actionable people initiatives. This position demands a sharp commercial mindset, the ability to influence across functions, and the urgency to drive meaningful change.

Reporting directly to the President, you will shape the future of SprintRay’s workforce, culture, and performance—guiding our People Services teams in the U.S., India, EMEA, and across international markets. As SprintRay celebrates its 10th anniversary and accelerates into its next phase of global growth, this is a rare opportunity to help shape our future from the inside out—at the intersection of innovation, transformation, and culture.
