The Role As the People Operations Lead you’ll lead and develop the existing People Ops specialists, own the systems and processes that hold the function together (HRIS, payroll, compliance, contractor risk), and build the durable operating mechanisms, documentation, reporting, and self-service workflows that let Lovable keep moving fast. We’re an AI-native company, and we want our People team to be AI-native too. That means using AI to thoughtfully scale service delivery, improve data quality, reduce manual work, and make great decisions faster — while keeping a high bar for privacy, compliance, and employee trust. This role combines scaled systems thinking, operational excellence, data rigor, compliance judgment, and a high-quality employee experience. You’ll be the first dedicated leader of this function who builds a consistent global People Ops model across regions.
