HR Manager, NYC

About the role

This position is based in New York City (hybrid, 3 days a week in our NYC office). About GitGuardian: GitGuardian is a global cybersecurity scale‑up. The company is based in Paris, New‑York City, Boston. Among our early investors who saw our market value proposition are the co‑founder of GitHub, Scott Chacon, along with Solomon Hykes, Docker's co‑founder. American and European top‑tier VC firms have also invested in GitGuardian, which raised its series C early 2026. GitGuardian leads the way in securing the credential layer, helping organizations protect the secrets that let code, machines, and AI agents access systems with broad detection, identity context, and remediation at scale. Already trusted by 600K+ developers worldwide and by 50 of the Fortune 500! About The Team And The Mission: The People team owns the full employee lifecycle and translates company strategy into hiring, performance and development plans, across Europe and the US. Our US team is about 35 people today and will grow to 60. Our CEO is moving to New York, and more of our leadership will be based in our NYC office. We need an HR Manager to be the main partner of our Go‑To‑Market managers and to own the US employee experience end to end, from the moment a Guardian signs to the moment their last paycheck clears. This is a generalist role, the kind you take when you want to be the HR person who does it all in a fast‑growing startup. A lot is already in place (payroll through our PEO, multi‑state setup, performance reviews, engagement surveys), and a lot is still yours to shape. As volume grows, we plan to bring in a dedicated US HR Operations hire, so the role can move further toward business partnering. You will be part of our 10‑person team, reporting to the Chief People Officer based in France, and work closely with the other People Partners, Talent Acquisition, People Ops, managers and Execs across the company and regions. The role requires traveling to Paris
