## Job description

## Why Harvey

At Harvey, we’re transforming how legal and professional services operate. By combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise, we’re reshaping how critical knowledge work gets done for decades to come. This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point. We have strong product-market fit and world-class investor support. We’re scaling fast and defining a new category in real time. The work is ambitious, the bar is high, and the opportunity for growth — personal, professional, and financial — is unmatched. Our team moves fast, takes ownership, and is deeply committed to the mission — operating with intensity, staying close to our customers, and pushing each other for excellence. We live by three values: Decisiveness, Simplicity, and Job's Not Finished. We act quickly on clear judgment over perfect information, we believe simplicity is what scales, and we're never satisfied with where we are. If you want to do the best work of your career alongside people who share that drive, we'd love to build with you. At Harvey, the future of professional services is being written today — and we’re just getting started.

## Role Overview

Harvey is transforming how the world’s best legal professionals work. As we continue to scale, we’re looking for a People Business Partner to support our Product and Design teams, based in San Francisco, with the potential to support additional technical orgs over time. In this role, you’ll partner closely with Product and Design leaders to help them build and scale high-performing, high-ownership teams. You’ll work side-by-side with leaders as they navigate growth, evolve their org structures, and operate in an environment where priorities shift quickly. This role reports to the Head of People Business Partners and works closely with leaders across the technical org as well as the broader People team. The right person brings strong judgment, can quickly build credibility with technical leaders, and is comfortable operating in a fast-moving, often ambiguous environment.

## What You'll Do

Partner deeply with Product and Design leaders

- Work closely with leaders as they build and scale their teams, advising on org design, team structure, and how to operate effectively through rapid growth and change.

Coach and challenge leaders

- Support leaders in navigating complex people and organizational decisions. Provide direct, thoughtful feedback and help raise the bar on leadership across the org.

Drive performance and accountability

- Partner with managers on performance, feedback, and development, ensuring teams are operating at a high bar and addressing gaps quickly.

Navigate complex people situations

- Handle employee relations matters with sound judgment, balancing empathy for individuals with what’s right for the team and the business.

Stay close to the work

- Develop a strong understanding of how Product, Design, and Engineering teams operate, from how decisions are made to where friction exists, and use that context to guide leaders effectively.

Operate in ambiguity

- Help leaders navigate shifting priorities, evolving org structures, and new problem spaces, bringing clarity where things are not yet fully defined.

Help scale how we work

- Partner with the Head of PBPs and broader People team to evolve and implement practices that support high-performing technical teams.

## What You Have

- 6–10+ years of experience in a People Business Partner role, ideally supporting Product, Design, or Engineering teams.
- Experience working with technical leaders - you understand how product and engineering organizations operate and can build credibility quickly.
- Strong judgment and the ability to navigate ambiguity - you’re comfortable operating without perfect information and making decisions in real time.
- Ability to influence and challenge senior leaders in a thoughtful and direct way.
- Experience supporting org design, performance management, and team scaling in high-growth environments.
- High emotional intelligence and strong communication skills, especially in complex or sensitive situations.
- A pragmatic, no-drama approach - you focus on what works for the business and move things forward.
- Ability to work from our San Francisco office at least three days per week.
