About Lyzr
Lyzr is an enterprise AI agent platform helping companies deploy production-grade AI faster than anywhere else. We're growing fast across product, engineering, and go-to-market and we're looking for a People leader to grow and develop the function.
This is a rare chance to own the entire people agenda at a company that's past the experimental stage but still early enough that your decisions will shape culture for year
What You'll Own
- Design and build Lyzr's people function from the ground up strategy, systems, and team.
- Lead talent acquisition across engineering, product, sales, and operations in India and the US
- Own the full US and Canada employee experience: compensation benchmarking, health & benefits administration, 401(k), equity, and compliance
- Manage India HR operations including statutory compliance, payroll coordination, and vendor relationships
- Build performance frameworks that are lightweight, fair, and actually drive growth
- Shape culture in a distributed, async-first team defining what great place to work means at Lyzr
- Partner with founders and leadership team on org design, headcount planning, and leveling
- Establish onboarding and L&D programs that help people ramp fast and grow continuous
What We're Looking
- At 7-10 years in HR or People roles, with meaningful time at an early-stage tech startup (Series AC range)
- You've seen a company grow 2x5x headcount and know what breaks if you don't build ahead of it
- Hands-on experience hiring for technical and non technical roles in India and US
- Solid working knowledge of US employment law, benefits (health, dental, vision), insurance brokers, and equity administration. You don't need to be a lawyer, but you know when to call one
- Equivalent fluency in Indian HR operations: PF, ESIC, gratuity, POSH compliance, and labor law basics
- You've selected and implemented HRIS tools and built people processes without a big team behind you
- Clear, direct communicator with candidates, with employees, and with leadership
Who Thrives Here:
We're a small, focused team that moves fast and holds itself to high standards. The people who love working at Lyzr tend to share a few things:
- They prefer building over maintaining. They're comfortable with ambiguity and good at deciding what to prioritize without being told
- They bring warmth and rigor in equal measure : people-first values with operational precision
- They're curious about AI and excited about what it means for the future of work
- Think long-term while executing short-term
