That’s where you come in.

We’re looking for a high-impact People Generalist to power the experience of the extraordinary individuals behind this mission. You won’t just support the employee lifecycle—you’ll help build the People systems and culture that keep our teams moving fast and flying high.

  • Deliver core HR programs (onboarding, performance, engagement and development) with precision and empathy—ensuring every touchpoint reinforces our culture and momentum.
  • Partner with People team leads on org design, compensation reviews, and talent planning—adapting programs to meet the needs of a growing, evolving organization.
  • Operationalize strategic HR goals by breaking them into processes that effectively work—balancing speed, accuracy, and employee experience.
  • Use data and insights to spot trends in engagement, retention, and performance—and help shape proactive, high-impact solutions.
  • Act as an HR trusted guide—ensuring best practices are followed, managers are supported, and Boom remains in lockstep with employment laws and internal standards.
  • Roll up your sleeves during change—supporting communication, adoption, and alignment as we roll out new initiatives, structures, and processes.

The Ideal Candidate

  • Thrives in fast-paced, ambiguous environments and adapts quickly to shifting priorities.
  • Builds trust and credibility across all levels with strong communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Has a solid grasp of fundamental HR knowledge, practices, and compliance requirements.
  • Balances detail orientation with a bias for action and practical problem-solving.
  • Brings a growth mindset and is eager to expand into more strategic business partnership.

What Will Set You Apart

  • Experience with Rippling, Greenhouse, and Google Suite. 
  • Skilled in balancing employee advocacy with business needs to drive thoughtful, people-first outcomes.

Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
