Executive Prosus Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Emergent builds autonomous coding agents that replace traditional software development by generating, testing, and deploying production applications directly from plain-language intent. Our systems run in production at global scale and are used to build millions of real applications.

Since our public launch, we've crossed $100M in ARR and grown to over 10M users across 190+ countries. We're backed by Khosla Ventures, SoftBank, Google, Lightspeed, Prosus, Together, and Y Combinator.

We're solving the hard part of AI-driven software creation: correctness, reliability, security, and scale in real production systems. The team is built by repeat founders, Olympiad medalists, IIT & IIM alumni, and leaders from Google, Amazon, and Dropbox.

We're hiring builders who want ownership, speed, and impact at global scale.

The Role

We're hiring a Talent Partner in San Francisco to manage and own the people function for our US office. This is a foundational role at a pivotal stage of growth. You'll be the go-to person for everything from recruiting top talent to shaping the employee experience, ensuring our US team scales with the same speed and intensity that defines Emergent. You'll work closely with founders and global leadership to translate Emergent's culture and ambition into a best-in-class people operation on the ground in SF.

What You'll Do:

• Own end-to-end recruitment for the US office: Partner with hiring managers across functions to drive full-cycle recruiting, from role scoping and sourcing to offer negotiation and close. Build pipelines for engineering, product, GTM, and operations roles with speed and quality.
• Build and manage the employee lifecycle: Own onboarding, performance management, employee relations, offboarding, and everything in between. Ensure every Emergent team member in the US has a seamless, high-quality experience from day one.
• Be the US policy and compliance anchor: Maintain deep, current knowledge of federal and California employment law, HR compliance requirements, and benefits administration. Ensure Emergent operates with full legal and regulatory integrity as we scale.
• Drive compensation and benefits strategy: Partner with leadership to design and maintain competitive, market-aligned compensation bands and benefits programs for US employees. Manage relationships with benefits providers and brokers.
• Shape culture and employee engagement: Build programs and rituals that reinforce Emergent's values, foster belonging, and keep engagement high in a fast-moving environment. Act as a trusted resource and confidential sounding board for employees at all levels.
• Build HR infrastructure and tooling: Implement and manage HR systems, processes, and documentation that scale with the team, from offer letters and employment contracts to policies, handbooks, and HRIS workflows.
• Partner globally: Work closely with our India HR team to ensure consistency in people practices across geographies while maintaining US-specific compliance and standards.

Who You Are:

• 3-5 years of HR experience, with significant time spent in fast-growing tech startups or high-growth companies in the US.
• Deep knowledge of US employment law and HR compliance, particularly California-specific regulations including wage and hour laws, leave policies, and termination requirements.
• Full-cycle recruiting experience: You've personally run searches across technical and non-technical functions and know how to close strong candidates in a competitive market.
• Hands-on and process-oriented: You can move fast without breaking things. You build lightweight systems that scale and know when to add structure without creating bureaucracy.
• Strong employee relations instincts: People trust you. You handle sensitive situations with discretion, empathy, and sound judgment.
• Excellent communicator: Clear, direct, and human in both written and verbal communication. Comfortable working with engineers, executives, and everyone in between.
• Startup mindset: You've worn many hats, enjoy ambiguity, and take pride in building things from scratch. You don't wait to be told what needs to exist.

Why Join Us:

• Build the people function for one of the fastest-growing AI companies in the world, from the ground up.
• Work directly with founders and leadership on decisions that shape the culture and future of Emergent.
• Real ownership and a high-trust environment where your work has immediate, visible impact.
