Gigs
About Gigs
At Gigs, we're building the operating system for mobile services - a platform that enables tech companies to seamlessly embed connectivity into their products.
Just as Stripe enables businesses to embed a payment button into any product, Gigs enables businesses to add a connect button and issue SIMs with a single click or API call. From fintechs launching mobile services to HRIS platforms offering work phone plans, we automate phone plan provisioning.
We're solving complex technical, operational and regulatory challenges to make connectivity truly effortless. We've grown to a team of around 90 people across the US and Europe, bringing together an experienced team of early-stage engineers, product builders and business athletes from companies like Stripe, Airbnb and Shopify. We know what it takes to solve hard problems.
With almost $100MM in funding from Ribbit Capital, Google and Y Combinator, Gigs is one of the fastest growing tech companies. Building on our strong foundation, we’re looking for exceptional candidates who want to do the best work of their lives in a high-paced environment, surrounded by a highly talented, ambitious team.
You’ll be joining at an exciting inflection point in our company’s history. At sub-100 people and with a year of hyper-growth ahead of us, opportunity is abundant.
The Role
At Gigs, we’re building the world’s connectivity platform — and like any ambitious company, we know our success comes down to our people. We’ve built a strong foundation, but now it’s time to level up: we’re hiring our first-ever People Partner to help us scale thoughtfully, sustainably, and with a strong bias toward performance and clarity. This role is about embedding deeply into the business, partnering with leaders to grow and support high-performing teams, and building the systems that will enable every Gigster to do the best work of their careers. If you’re energized by ambiguity, like to get your hands dirty, and know how to build from scratch, you’ll feel right at home here.
What You Will Do
- Partner Closely with Leadership & Managers: Act as a trusted thought partner to founders, execs, and team leads — supporting org design, performance, team health, and leadership development
- Build the Foundations for Scale: design and roll out the systems we need as we grow: performance management, career frameworks, management training, succession planning, and more
- Create Clarity from Ambiguity: ensure visibility into people priorities and progress. Identify and surface people risks and opportunities before they become problems. Use data and intuition to inform decisions, not just follow requests
- Drive Culture Through Systems: help Gigs remain fast, clear, and high-performing as we scale — not by holding onto culture as a vibe, but by translating it into scalable behaviors and systems. Build scalable people systems aimed at improving the team's performance, while remaining lean
- Enable Managers to be Great: build lightweight but effective programs to help managers grow, navigate tough conversations, and develop their teams
- Support a Global Team: help us navigate complex cross-border setups, especially as we grow in the US and EU, and ensure we're compliant without being bureaucratic
What We Are Looking For
- 5+ years of experience in People roles, preferably as People Partner, HRBP, or equivalent supporting tech or product orgs at high-growth companies.
- Strong business acumen — you’ve partnered with senior leaders and know how to tie people initiatives to business outcomes
- Hands-on and humble — you’re excited to both zoom out and think strategically, and roll up your sleeves to get things done
- Experience supporting org design, performance cycles, career frameworks, and building programs that support talent development and retention
- You’ve worked in high-performing, fast-paced environments, ideally companies known for talent density and operational excellence
- Excellent coaching and influencing skills — you can work with managers at all levels and aren’t afraid to push back or offer a new perspective
- Comfort with ambiguity and building from zero — you don’t need a playbook, but you know how to create one others can use
- Experience working with global, distributed teams — you know how to navigate multi-country employment setups and work with external partners (e.g., legal, payroll, PEOs)
Remote Work at Gigs
At Gigs, we’re remote-friendly, with a strong emphasis on meaningful in-person collaboration. While most of our work is done remotely, we encourage our team to connect regularly in our hubs, whether for focused teamwork, customer meetings, or brainstorming sessions that drive creativity.
- Gigs Pads: Our hubs in San Francisco, London, and Berlin are vibrant spaces where Gigsters come together to connect, collaborate, and create.
- Gigs Republic: Twice a year, the entire company gathers for in-depth team bonding, strategic sessions, and shared experiences to reinforce our culture and drive growth.
This blend of remote work and in-person collaboration ensures we maintain a dynamic, connected, and innovative team environment.
What We Offer
At Gigs, we believe in rewarding excellence. You’ll receive competitive compensation and stock options to ensure you are truly part of our growth. Benefits/additional compensation for this role may include stipends for upgrading your home office or work setup, learning and development budgets to support your career growth and a free phone and international data plan (naturally).
If you’re excited about pushing boundaries and helping us shape the future of telecom, we’d love to hear from you.
