The Role in One Line

Build and lead HR for a fast-growing, AI-first group. Hire great people, lead a young and energetic team as one of them, and make HR a function that drives revenue and profit, not just cost.

Who We Are

NUVEXA is a founder-led, bootstrapped and profitable group of four companies, based in Bengaluru with manufacturing in Hosur. We work in three areas:

• Health & consumer brands: RUGD MEN, SuperBeing Nutrition, Super Titans, Super Envi and AAurveda: nutraceuticals, pharma, skincare and wellness, sold D2C, online and on marketplaces.
• Technology: Generative AI, Agentic AI, AI SaaS and automation.
• Marketing: AI and performance marketing, creative and content.

We also deliver large-scale AI, technology, marketing and D2C solutions to clients in India, the USA, the UAE and other global markets. We run lean, use AI everywhere, and care about results: low customer acquisition cost, profitable growth, repeat customers and long-term clients.

Why This Role Is Different

• You build, not maintain. You will set up HR systems, policies and teams from scratch, across four companies.
• You lead a young team. Most of our people are Gen Z and Millennials. You will be part of the team, not behind an HR desk.
• You use AI every day. AI resume search, screening, onboarding and reporting are part of how we work.
• You drive the business. HR here is measured on revenue, profit and output, and you will help create new revenue lines.
• You work directly with the founder. Fast decisions, real ownership, and visible impact.

What You Will Do

1. Hire the Right People, Fast and at Low Cost

• Hire across very different roles: R&D, regulatory, pharma, nutraceuticals, skincare, D2C, AI/tech, marketing, creative, finance, supply chain and sales.
• Run AI-powered resume search and screening (Naukri Resdex, LinkedIn Recruiter, ATS tools), and build our own searchable talent database.
• Keep cost-per-hire low through referrals, campus, communities and direct sourcing. Use agencies only for hard roles.
• Run a fast, fair hiring process with practical tasks, quick feedback and honest offers. AI helps, but people make every hiring decision.
• Build our employer brand on LinkedIn, Instagram, campuses and communities, using real employee stories.

2. Lead, Motivate and Keep a Young Team

• Be approachable and visible. Mingle with the team, know every person, and understand what drives them.
• Organise the team into clear roles, squads and routines, with weekly goals and simple tracking.
• Keep energy high: quick recognition, team rituals, hackathons, launch celebrations and learning sessions.
• Hold everyone to clear targets, quality and deadlines. Friendly, but always accountable.
• Show every person a growth path, run regular one-on-ones and stay interviews, and act before good people leave.
• Coach managers to give feedback, delegate and retain their people.

3. Run Payroll, Performance and Rewards

• Build our core team as full-time employees on monthly salary, with an appointment letter for everyone.
• Run accurate, on-time monthly payroll with PF, ESI, PT and TDS, compliant with Indias new Labour Codes.
• Set up goals, monthly check-ins, probation reviews and appraisals.
• Design salary bands and fixed + variable pay that rewards results, plus bonuses and profit-sharing for top performers.
• Handle underperformance fairly: coaching first, then improvement plans where needed.

4. Staff Our Brands and Client Projects

• Plan who works on which brand and client project, and keep utilisation and bench visible.
• Build teams quickly for large client projects in India, the USA and globally.
• Keep key people on client accounts, with backups and handovers, so we never lose a client because we lost a person.
• Train client-facing teams in communication, data security and working across time zones.
• Support hiring abroad through Employer of Record partners and our Dubai entity.

5. Make HR Drive Revenue and Profit

• Help bill our experts to external clients and turn bench time into revenue.
• With the founder, build new HR and talent services for clients: AI recruitment, leadership hiring, AI/tech staff augmentation, hire-train-deploy programmes and corporate AI training.
• Claim government hiring incentives with Finance, such as PM-VBRY, the Section 80JJAA deduction, apprenticeship support and state schemes.
• Run employee programmes that bring growth: customer and client referrals, a creator and affiliate programme for our brands, and an intrapreneurship programme for new ideas.
• Cut cost into profit through AI, automation and shared services across the group.
• Build a monthly people P&L that links people cost to output, revenue and profit.

6. Keep Us Compliant and Well-Run

• Keep all four companies compliant: Labour Codes, PF, ESI, gratuity, POSH, maternity benefit and the DPDP Act.
• Write the employee handbook, HR policies and code of conduct, and run onboarding with NDA and IP agreements from day one.
• Maintain audit-ready training records for our pharma and nutraceutical teams.
• Run grievance, disciplinary and exit processes fairly and with discretion.
• Send the founder a clear monthly HR report: hiring, attrition, cost, productivity, compliance and risks.

Your First 90 Days

• By day 30: audit records and compliance, close open roles, and set up the HRMS, AI resume search and our candidate database.
• By day 60: launch the handbook, core policies, NDA/IP agreements, the POSH committee, org charts, role scorecards and the payroll process.
• By day 90: launch the performance cycle, salary bands and monthly HR report; present the 12-month workforce plan, the people P&L and a plan for HR services revenue.

How We Will Measure Success

• Hiring: time-to-hire, quality-of-hire, offer-to-joining ratio and cost-per-hire.
• People: retention of top performers, first-year attrition, engagement and team productivity.
• Business: revenue and profit per employee, payroll as % of revenue, revenue from billable talent and HR services, and incentives claimed.
• Clients: time to staff projects, key-person retention and client satisfaction.
• Compliance: salaries always on time, zero statutory defaults, and 100% signed agreements.

What You Bring

Must have

• 4-5 years in HR, with hands-on experience in hiring, HR operations, payroll and performance management.
• An MBA/PGDM in HR or equivalent.
• Proven hiring for technical and non-technical roles, ideally across different domains.
• Experience using AI tools for sourcing and screening, and an HRMS (e.g., Zoho People, Keka, greytHR, Darwinbox).
• Working knowledge of the Labour Codes, payroll and statutory compliance.
• A record of hiring, motivating and retaining Gen Z and Millennial employees, with numbers to show for it.
• Strong communication in English, and comfort working directly with founders.

Good to have:

• Early-stage startup experience.
• HR experience in pharma, nutraceuticals, FMCG or manufacturing.
• Experience staffing client-delivery teams (IT, consulting or agency), especially for US or global clients.
• Experience with a revenue-generating HR line (recruitment, RPO, staffing or training) or with claiming government hiring incentives.
• Kannada, Hindi or Tamil.

You Will Fit In If You Are

• An owner: you finish what you start without being chased.
• One of the team: energetic and approachable, but you still hold everyone to high standards.
• Commercially sharp: you understand cost, revenue and profit, and can show how people decisions make money.
• A systems builder: you turn one-off fixes into simple processes.
• Fast-learning: you can switch between pharma, AI and creative hiring in a day.
• Discreet: you handle confidential matters with integrity.

What We Offer

• A leadership role building HR for a four-company group from the ground up.
• Direct work with the founder, with real ownership and fast decisions.
• Fast-track growth for strong performers, with performance bonuses and long-term incentives.
• Continuous learning, including AI upskilling and certifications.
• Group health insurance and statutory benefits.
• A young, energetic team, and the chance to shape its culture.

Our Hiring Process

• Application review: we read every application and reply quickly.
• Screening call (30 minutes): your experience and what you are looking for.
• Practical task: a short, real HR case from our business.
• Founder interview: your task, your approach, and how you lead people.
• Reference and background checks, then the offer.

We judge candidates on evidence, not claims: roles closed, attrition reduced, systems built, costs saved and teams grown.

We are an equal-opportunity employer.
