  • Build strong relationships with employees, management, and the leadership team across the Product and Design organization 
  • Deeply understand your business in order to provide customized consultation (not simply apply HR best practices)
  • Influence our People Team strategy and programming to meet business objectives for the R&D organization 
  • Leverage strong operational skills or Workday expertise to streamline processes and execute People initiatives effectively
  • Successfully influence by providing direction, knowledge, and support to create a high-performing organization (creative problem solving, not just ‘by the book’)

  • Provide guidance and input on major People initiatives within the department such as succession planning, compensation, promotions, lateral transfers, re-leveling, benchmarking, etc
  • Provide creative and interactive solutions while being comfortable with ambiguity

The HRBP role at Carta focuses on building those strong partnerships with the business, consistently seeks opportunities to problem solve for leaders, and provides both strategic and operational support to those leaders, knowing when to adapt to each. You will execute our People initiatives in a way that works for the organization you support, provide great customer support, and work with business leaders to establish, drive, and constantly evolve their People strategy in a way that is still connected with the rest of Carta, but uniquely ‘fit for purpose’ in their client group.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
