About Nametag
Nametag is building the future of secure digital identity. Our mission is to protect every human identity to restore trust in the AI era. We bring workforce-grade identity verification into the enterprise to verify the human behind accounts and critical actions. Today, global enterprises use Nametag across their workforce to prevent social engineering and deepfake impersonation attacks.
The role
We’re hiring a Head of People to own the full employee lifecycle and build our People function for scale. You'll be the human face of People at Nametag — the person employees call, trust, and turn to — while building the systems and automations that mean you're rarely doing the same thing twice. You’ll lead a TA hire who executes day-to-day recruiting while you architect the strategy, systems, frameworks, and operational infrastructure that let Nametag hire and retain great people as we grow. This is a builder-leader role: equal parts strategic design and hands-on execution, with a clear path to expand the People team.
What you’ll do
People Operations & Infrastructure (60%)
- Own and optimize the People tech stack: HRIS, ATS, onboarding tools, and benefits platforms—selecting, implementing, and maintaining systems that scale with the company.
- Build the policy and documentation framework: employee handbook, job architecture, comp bands, performance review cadence, and PIP process—designed once, scalable forever.
- Design a remote-first onboarding experience that embeds culture and accelerates ramp; ensure multi-state compliance for a distributed U.S. workforce.
- Lead engagement, internal communications, and culture programming—including quarterly off-sites—grounded in data (eNPS, pulse surveys) not intuition.
- Default to automation: build self-service workflows, eliminate manual repetition, and document systems so the team never depends on tribal knowledge.
Talent Acquisition (20%)
- Manage and develop a TA hire who runs day-to-day sourcing, interviewing, and coordination across Engineering, Product, and GTM.
- Own recruiting infrastructure: ATS configuration, interview loop design, scorecards, offer frameworks, and employer brand positioning.
- Set and maintain the hiring bar: calibrate
