About the team

At HackerRank, we’re proud to have a high-performing, mission-driven team that truly, madly, deeply cares about their work. Our goal in People Operations (or POps, as we like to call it!) is simple: to empower every HackerRanker to reach their highest potential—both individually and collectively.

We are committed to creating an environment where people have the tools, resources, and support they need to do their best work.

About the role

As the Senior Manager, People Business Partner, you’ll play a key role in supporting the growth of HackerRank’s global Go-To-Market (GTM) team. You’ll work closely with stakeholders to ensure the team has the right talent in the right roles. By focusing on key areas such as talent density, employee development, compensation, and organizational design, you’ll directly impact leadership development and individual career growth.

This role is based in the US and will also oversee the AMER HR Generalist, including managing benefits and compliance. We’re looking for someone who is both nimble and detail-oriented-a leader who can roll up their sleeves when needed and thrive in a fast-paced environment.

What you’ll do

  • Serve as a key member of the GTM leadership team, offering strategic guidance on people-related initiatives and execution.
  • Collaborate closely with leaders on workforce planning, organizational design, performance management, and leadership development to support the business’s high growth.
  • Lead company-wide talent programs within GTM, including talent calibrations and compensation reviews.
  • Address complex employee relations issues with discretion, providing coaching and gathering feedback.
  • Partner closely with other PBPs, HR Generalists, the Talent Acquisition team, and colleagues across the People team to design and implement effective, people-focused solutions.
  • While focused on the Global GTM team, this role may also provide counsel and support to other teams as needed.
  • Oversee benefits and compliance for the AMER region.
What you bring
  • 8+ years of experience in HR business partnering, including at least 2 years of managing a small team.
  • Deep expertise in managing AMER benefits and HR compliance.
  • Proven experience as a People Business Partner, supporting executive leaders, senior and entry-level managers, as well as individual contributors.
  • Bonus: Experience partnering with GTM or customer-facing teams in a high-growth, global organization is highly preferred.
  • Bonus: Experience supporting AMER, EMEA, and APAC regions in a remote setup.

Current base salary range: The base salary range for this role is ($165,000 - $180,000), plus a target (15%) annual bonus tied to individual and company performance. You will also receive equity stock options and a comprehensive package of cash and non-cash benefits.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
