Job description

We're looking for the VP of HR who notices the line item everyone else scrolled past and asks why it doubled. This CA role reads like an upgrade — $271,000 - $367,000, remote hours, 12 years valued, and a path that does not dead-end.

• Carry a clarity-seeking business problem from whiteboard to working pilot in Santa Rosa, CA
• Author the playbook so the next VP of HR doesn't start from a blank page
• Chase down why margin slipped and come back with a fix, not a theory

What You'll Bring

• Self-motivated and able to work independently with minimal oversight
• The kind of curiosity that reads the docs before asking
• Sharp organizational skills and an ability to juggle multiple workstreams
• Demonstrated ability to teach what you know to someone greener

• Vp-caliber judgment about when to elevate and when to absorb
