People's Head — Founder's Office

GoCredit · Bengaluru (On-site) · Full-time ABOUT US GoCredit is an AI-first fintech platform out of Bengaluru, growing fast and investing hard in serious AI. Our edge is our people — the engineers, researchers, and operators we bring in. We're scaling quickly across the company, and we're looking for the person who owns how we hire.

THE ROLE We're hiring a People's Head for the Founder's Office — the person who owns how a fast-growing AI company finds, hires, and keeps exceptional people. This is a hands-on individual-contributor seat: you ARE the people function, working shoulder-to-shoulder with the founders. If you can close a senior AI engineer and run a clean compliance ledger, this room is yours.

One great hire here unlocks fifty across the company. WHAT YOU'LL OWN (END TO END) • Technical & leadership hiring — the hard roles.

Own the searches that move the company: senior AI/ML, engineering, and leadership. Sourcing, outreach, evaluation, and closing.

- The recruitment engine — build and run the full funnel: JD to sourcing to screening to interview loops to scheduling to offer to close. Fast, instrumented, and a candidate experience people talk about.
- HR operations & the employee lifecycle — onboarding, HRMS, payroll coordination, policies, performance cycles, offboarding. The whole lifecycle, run cleanly.
- Compliance & vendor management — statutory and labour compliance (PF, ESI, POSH, contracts), background checks, and every HR vendor and tool. Audit-ready as we scale.
- Culture & employer brand — shape why exceptional people choose us and why they stay: the EVP, the founder story, and retention of the talent you fought to win.



WHAT YOU BRING • A proven track record hiring technical and high-quality leadership roles — senior engineering, AI/ML, or leadership — at a high-growth startup.
- Mastery of the full recruitment funnel: sourcing, ATS/pipeline discipline, interview-loop design, scheduling ops, offer negotiation, and the close.
- Genuine HR generalist depth — onboarding, HR ops, performance, and Indian statutory compliance (PF/ESI/POSH), plus comfort managing HR vendors and payroll partners.
- An individual contributor who thrives owning end-to-end — you'd rather run the function yourself than manage a layer that runs it for you.
- Founder's-office temperament: high ownership, high trust, low ego, quick. You want to build the entire people function of a high-tech company, not a slice of it.
- Bengaluru, on-site.

Bonus: you've hired in AI, deep-tech, or fintech. WHAT YOU GET • Top-notch salary + performance-linked ESOPs — we pay at the top of the band for the right person.

- Founder's Office, zero layers — a seat on the decisions that shape the company.
- A greenfield function — build the people machine from the ground up; your playbook becomes how we hire for years.
- Real ambition — a company scaling fast with real problems worth solving. You'll hire for impact, not headcount. HIRING PROCESS Intro call (30 min) → working session (a live hiring case) → founder round → offer within 48 hours. Typically 7–10 days start to offer.
