Waterloo, Canada Pontosense Full time

**About Pontosense**:
At Pontosense, we have a groundbreaking mission: saving lives. Our wireless sensing modules are at the forefront of this life-saving technology, the only one of its kind in the world; offering unparalleled medical-grade accuracy for crucial biometrics.

Imagine a sensor that can wirelessly monitor vital signs like heart rate, breathing, and even advanced biometrics. This sensor becomes your personal guardian angel, promptly alerting your car or house at the first sign of an emergency. With Pontosense, you can ensure the safety of your living space like never before. Today, we are fortunate to work with the most prominent automotive and smart home companies - think of one; chances are, we are their partner.

Founded in Waterloo, we have grown to offices in Toronto, Japan, China, and Germany. Our founding team has invented over 500+ patents (more than Airbnb and Snapchat combined) and built three different unicorns ($1B+ market cap), and wireless sensing is our passion - we want to change the world for the better.

**About the Role**:
We are looking for an experienced HR Manager to join our team and drive HR initiatives that align with our strategic goals. You will be responsible for overseeing all aspects of HR operations at Pontosense.

- Maintain HR records and systems, ensuring accuracy and confidentiality.
- Stay updated on employment laws and regulations, and ensure company policies and procedures are in compliance.
- Collaborate with department managers to address staffing needs and optimize team performance.

**What we’re looking for**:
To be successful in this role, there are a few things that we are looking for. This is by no means an exhaustive list, if you do not meet most or all of these points, we still encourage you to apply.
- Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or related field (HR certification is an asset).
- A minimum of 5 years of proven experience in HR management roles.
