The CPO will be responsible for designing and executing the people strategy, with a strong focus on building and scaling a high-performing, globally distributed team. This includes creating AI-native people systems and processes, leading the talent and HR function, and supporting regional and country HR teams. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record in full-cycle recruiting, experience in LMIC contexts, and the ability to design and maintain a culture of high performance and accountability. The role demands a builder with strong analytical instincts, a deep understanding of AI tools, and the ability to navigate the complexities of a fast-growing organization.
