About Bluecopa

Bluecopa is building the AI-native operating system for enterprise finance. Our platform runs intelligent workflows across order-to-cash, procure-to-pay, and record-to-report, with humans and AI working together to run the finance function rather than just report on it. Our customers are some of the most demanding, high-volume organizations in the world. Our investors are top-tier funds who bring real operating expertise to the companies they back.

We have built this company brick by brick over four years. Hustle first, customer obsessed, technically ambitious. That energy got us here. We are now at the point where companies with real ambition make the step from fast-growing to category-defining. Raw hustle has to be joined by real organizational depth, without losing the drive that made it work in the first place.

Why This Role, and Why Now?

This is not a traditional HR role, and it is not a pure operational one by design.

Bluecopa's next phase will be shaped by the people decisions we make from here. How we build our leadership bench. How we structure teams as the platform deepens. How we bring rhythm and clarity to a company that has so far run on the founding team's energy and conviction. These are some of the most consequential problems in the business right now, and we are looking for the person who wants to own them.

You will be our first dedicated People leader, building the people operating system for a scaling enterprise software company from first principles. If you have spent your career waiting for a mandate this big and this real, this is it.

What You'll Own

Organization design and leadership depth. Partner with the founders to design how Bluecopa is structured as it scales, where leadership is robust, where the gaps are, and how we build the senior bench the next phase demands. *This is the heart of the role.

Operating rhythm and people metrics.



Bring cadence and discipline to how the leadership team and the broader org operate. Build the input, output, and outcome metrics that let founders and investors see organizational health clearly and make people decisions on evidence.

Rewards, policy, and operations. Build compensation and benefits frameworks and people policies that are simple, compliant, and employee-friendly, and operationalize them cleanly across teams.

Performance and growth. Establish our performance philosophy, goal-setting and OKR frameworks, career paths, competency models, and succession planning. Define and create the systems that turn a talented team into high-performing leaders.

Culture and experience. Protect and evolve Bluecopa's essential character as we grow: the high ownership, accountability, and pace that define us today, while adding the structure that scale requires tomorrow. Design onboarding, engagement, and recognition that accelerate people rather than slow them down.

Talent systems that scale. Design the hiring engine, including strategy, employer brand, candidate experience, and the metrics behind it, across Product, Engineering, GTM, and Customer Success. Build the machine and the team to run it.

How You'll Work

You'll own this function and run it with real independence. It's a build-from-scratch mandate, and you'll shape most of it on your own judgment. Where it counts, you won't be doing it alone. The biggest calls, like leadership structure, org design, and hard sequencing under constraint, are ones you'll think through directly with the founders, investors, and advisors, because they are calls the whole company has a stake in.





That close interface with a seasoned founding team and experienced investors is one of the real privileges of this seat.

Who You Are

This role suits someone whose trajectory is still steep. If you're looking for a seat to settle into, this isn't it.

- 10+ years in People, HR, or Talent, ideally through the Series A–D scaling journey of a fast-growing technology company.
- Evidence you've consistently operated above your title, taken on scope before it was formally given, and earned the trust of senior leaders without positional authority.
- A builder who is genuinely energized by ambiguity and the absence of a playbook, not merely tolerant of it.
- Strong organizational-design instinct and business acumen. You think in systems, and you can hold your own in a strategy conversation with founders.
- Excellent communication and coaching skills, and the judgment to know when to decide and when to escalate.
- Enterprise SaaS or B2B technology experience is highly valued.

What Makes Someone Successful Here

- You build trust before you build process, and you add discipline without smothering the hustle that got us here.
- You balance genuine empathy with a high bar, and you use data without losing the human read.
- You're as comfortable designing an org with founders as you are onboarding a new joiner well.
- You have the ambition and self-belief to grow with the company, and the humility to build the foundations first.

Why Join Bluecopa

You'll have the rare chance to build a company, not just join one. Your work will shape every future hire, every leader, and every cultural decision. The systems you build now will define how Bluecopa operates for many years to come. You'll do it alongside an ambitious founding team, investors of genuine calibre, and seasoned advisors, at a company solving one of the hardest problems in enterprise software.
