Human Resources Manager

Garage.App is an AI-powered SaaS and entrepreneurship platform. We move fast, operate lean, and expect people to own outcomes—not wait for instructions.

We are hiring an independent, sharp, no-hand-holding HR Manager who can run the HR department end-to-end and keep pace with a startup that builds, hires, and iterates continuously.

What You Will Own

HR Operations (End-to-End Ownership)

• Run complete employee lifecycle: onboarding → documentation → confirmations → exits
• Create, implement, and enforce HR policies (not just file them)
• Maintain compliance, statutory filings, and HR hygiene without follow-ups

Leave & Attendance Management

·      Own end-to-end leave management: policy enforcement, approvals, tracking, and reporting

·       Monitor attendance, late logins, absenteeism, and misuse of leave

·       Ensure leave data is accurate, transparent, and aligned with payroll

·       Act early on patterns impacting productivity or discipline

Hiring & Talent Execution

• Drive hiring coordination across tech, product, business, and interns
• Screen candidates, schedule interviews, close offers—fast and clean
• Work with founders, recruiters, and agencies to meet hiring timelines

People, Performance & Discipline

• Track attendance, leaves, performance cycles, and reviews
• Flag people risk early—performance gaps, attrition, morale issues
• Ensure accountability across teams without micromanagement

Culture & Startup Reality

• Be the first line of clarity, not escalation
• Handle employee issues with maturity, discretion, and firmness
• Help build a performance-first, no-nonsense culture

What We Expect (Non-Negotiable)

• Strong bias for action—things move because of you
• Comfortable working directly with founders
• Clear communicator who can say “no” when needed
• Can manage confidential matters without drama
• Thrives in ambiguity and pressure

You are Likely Succeed If You Have

• 2–5 years as an HR Generalist / HR Ops professional
• Startup, SaaS, tech, or consulting experience
• Solid working knowledge of Indian labour laws & compliance
• Experience hiring tech/product roles is a strong plus

Why This Role Is a Career Accelerator

• Direct exposure to founders and decision-making
• Real ownership—not a support role
• High learning velocity in an AI-first startup ecosystem

Apply only if you are ready to move fast, take responsibility, and operate independently.
