The Role
FloQast is seeking a sophisticated, strategically-minded Senior People Business Partner to serve as the dedicated resource for our R&D Group. In this pivotal role, you will bridge the gap between complex technical objectives and human capital strategy. You will operate as a trusted advisor to the Chief Technology Officer and the broader R&D leadership team, ensuring that our organizational structure, leadership pipeline, and talent initiatives are perfectly synchronized with our product roadmap.
The ideal candidate possesses a deep fluency in the software development lifecycle and a proven ability to navigate the unique cultural nuances of a high-growth technical environment. You will not merely manage HR programs; you will architect the people-systems that enable our most technical minds to perform at their peak.

This role has a requirement of working in office 3 days per week, which may be subject to change based on team and business needs, as determined by the department leader. Please note that this requirement is subject to ongoing review and may be adjusted in the future.
What You'll Do:
- Strategic Technical Partnership: Act as the primary consultant to the CTO and SVP of Product, and their respective organizations. Align people strategies (workforce planning, org design, culture initiatives) with the technical roadmap and release cycles.
- Performance & Career Architecture: Lead the evolution of our technical career ladders. Ensure engineers and product managers have clear, transparent growth paths from Individual Contributor to Principal/Architect levels, and dual paths into Management.
- Engineering Culture & Engagement: Foster an R&D environment that balances high-velocity delivery, customer demands, and roadmap deliverables while continuing to harness and develop the R&D culture to be relentless, competitive, and balanced
- Leadership Coaching: Coach and mentor technical leads and managers—many of whom are brilliant technologists growing into first time people leadership—helping them master the art of feedback, conflict resolution, and team motivation
- Data-Driven: Analyze engagement data, turnover trends, and hiring metrics specifically within the R&D group to provide actionable insights to leadership
- Build strong cross-functional relationships with Total Rewards, Talent Acquisition, People Ops, and other partners to ensure People programs and processes are effectively implemented and aligned to business needs
- Partner with Finance, Talent Acquisition, Total Rewards and People Ops to align on headcount strategy, workforce planning, and organizational scalability
- Support the execution of People programs — including performance cycles, compensation planning, promotions, and talent reviews — within your assigned groups
- Any other tasks that may be assigned to help the company meet its goals
What You'll Bring:
- R&D Literacy: You understand the nuances of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). You know the difference between a DevOps engineer and a Backend engineer and can speak fluently about sprints, technical debt, and shipping code
- Experience: 6+ years of HR Business Partner experience, with a significant portion (3+ years) directly supporting Engineering, Product, or Design organizations in a high-growth SaaS environment
- The "FloQast Way": You embody our values: Authenticity, Ownership, and Collaboration. You are comfortable with candor and move with a sense of urgency
- Analytical Mindset: You approach people operations like an engineer—identifying root causes, building scalable processes, and measuring outcomes
- Growth Mindset: Experience helping a technical organization through large-scale growth and global expansion.
The base pay range for this position is $116,000 - $204,000. Compensation is not limited to base salary. FloQast values our Total Rewards, and offers a competitive and elaborate Benefits Package including, but not limited to, Medical, Dental, Vision, Family Forming benefits, Life & Disability Insurance, Unlimited Vacation, and participation in our Employee Stock Program.
