About the role
ABOUT THE ROLE
Landeed is growing fast, and this is its first People and Operations hire: one person who owns everything that lets the team do its best work, and who builds the function from zero as the company grows.
It is a rare seat for someone early in their career. You will hire, onboard and look after people, and you will also run the office, inventory, the vendors, the travel and the money that flows through all of it. In three years you will be leading the function you built.
This is not a typical HR role, and not a comfortable one. It is a builders role that happens to include HR.
WHAT YOULL OWN
Hiring that moves at the speed we interview, and onboarding that has someone productive in week one
The office, its vendors, equipment and travel, running so well nobody thinks about them
Payroll, reimbursements and statutory work, done right and on time
Events, off-boarding employees, etc
In general, clearing bottlenecks and enabling growth of the company, whatever it takes.
WHAT WERE LOOKING FOR
Zero to three years of experience, and evidence that you have made something run: a college festival that actually happened, a family business, an internship where they gave you the keys, a team you organised when nobody asked
You measure yourself by whether the company moved
You notice what is broken before anyone reports it, and fix it before anyone asks
You are as comfortable negotiating with a landlord as sitting with a new hire on their first day
Discretion is second nature; you will know salaries and exits before anyone else
Fluent English and Telugu or Hindi. Based in Hyderabad, at the office
We will teach you payroll, statutory work and everything else with a rulebook.
COMPENSATION
5L 7.5L fixed, plus equity.
WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE
90 days nothing about the office, hiring or people is on a founders list
1 year a process for every initiative you pick up
3 years you lead the People and Operations function you built
INTERVIEW PROCESS
Intro call (30 min)
Case (60 min) three real situations from a month at Landeed; you tell us what happens by Friday
Founder conversation (45 min)
About a week, end to end.
About the interview
Intro call (30 min) a conversation about what you have run before, and why this role.
Case (60 min) the day before, we send you three real situations from a month at Landeed: a hire that has stalled, a vendor that is late, a new joiner without a laptop. You tell us what happens by Friday, in whatever order you would actually do it.
Founder conversation (45 min) with the founders, about how you think and what you want to build.
We move fast. The whole process takes about a week, and we tell you the outcome of every stage within two working days.

We are now actively growing our engineering and product teams to expand our title coverage to more Indian states and build an enterprise platform for government bodies and corporates alike.
