We are looking for a Senior HR Business Partner to serve as an embedded strategic people partner for our Guadalajara organization.

The right person for this role is a confident, credible HR professional who thrives in a fast-moving tech environment, builds trust quickly with leaders and employees alike, and brings deep expertise in Mexican labor law without losing sight of the business.
