Director, People Business Partner - Product, Technology & AI

Partner with the EVP of Product & Technology and the three General Managers to design and embed the GM operating model:

• Define decision rights across the GMs, the EVP, and shared functions (who decides, who is consulted, who executes) so accountability is clear and decisions move faster.

• Design how each GM business works with shared functions such as Engineering platform, Product Ops, Finance, and the People team, including interfaces, governance forums, and escalation paths.

• Adapt org design, talent, and performance practices to the GM model: span-and-layer design, leadership roles and capability gaps, succession, goal setting, and how performance and rewards reflect GM-level accountability.

• Lead the people side of the change, including sequencing, leader readiness, communications, and adoption metrics.

•

Use what the GM transformation teaches us to shape people programs and practices across Delinea:

• Turn what works in P&T into repeatable principles, playbooks, and tools for decision rights, org design, and performance practices.

• Partner with the Global PBP team and the People COEs (Talent, Total Rewards, People Ops) to adapt and scale these approaches to other functions where they fit.

• Act as a thought partner to the VP, Global PBPs on enterprise org effectiveness, and help build operating model and org design capability across the PBP team.

•

• 10+ years of progressive HR experience, including 5+ years as a senior HRBP supporting Engineering, Product, or R&D in a B2B SaaS or tech company

• Experience partnering with C-suite or EVP-level leaders

• A track record in org design, workforce planning, and change management

• Experience partnering with an organization that runs a GM or business-unit model, ideally during a move into one. You understand GM accountability, decision rights, and how GMs work with shared functions, and you can coach leaders who are new to the model as well as those who have run it before.

• Working knowledge of how software teams operate (agile, product/engineering career paths, technical leveling)

• Curiosity about AI and how it's reshaping work, roles, and skills

• Strong judgment in employee relations, plus sound knowledge of employment law in multiple countries

• Comfort with data and with HR systems (e.g., Workday)
