About Veho Veho’s mission is to power the future of commerce by making shopping, shipping and returns seamless for everyone. We are building a modern, end-to-end logistics infrastructure designed entirely for the ever-evolving needs of ecommerce brands and everyday consumers. Powered by next-generation technology and a vertically integrated supply chain, Veho gives brands and their customers unprecedented control over their deliveries and removes the pain from the ecommerce post-purchase experience. We make delivery the ‘extension of the brand’ and leverage it to create deeper loyalty and trust between brands and their customers, driving customer retention and lifetime value. Our rapidly growing client list includes leading consumer brands like HelloFresh, Zara, Macy’s, Sephora, and more. To truly build an iconic company, we strongly believe that our people and values must be aligned with our mission. As such, we take pride in our championship team, merit-based culture. We seek team players who want to compete, win, make an impact and build a legacy, and we reward performance and impact players with generous equity and incredible career growth opportunities. About the Role At Veho, we're changing how packages move from brands to customers through a technology-driven delivery network. Our Engineering and Product teams play a critical role in making that possible. We're looking for a Principal, Talent Business Partner who can help these teams become some of the best in the industry. Someone who understands what makes a great team, isn't afraid to challenge leaders, and knows how to turn talent decisions into better business results. This role goes beyond traditional HR business partnership. You'll work closely with Engineering and Product leadership to raise performance standards, plan for future talent needs, solve organizational challenges, and make it easier for leaders to lead. We want someone who understands the business firsthand. That means learning how our technology is built, how our teams work together, and how their decisions affect warehouse operations, delivery partners, and customers. You'll bring strong analytical skills, sound judgment, high emotional intelligence, and a willingness to build solutions rather than rely on established HR practices. You'll also use AI and automation to work more efficiently and help leaders do the same. We're open to backgrounds in People, Business Operations, Strategy, Program Management, and Organizational Effectiveness. We're most interested in what you've built, the problems you've solved, and the results you've delivered. Your goal is straightforward: Raise the talent bar, make our leaders more effective, and help Engineering and Product become teams that exceptional people want to join and stay with.

Be a Strong Business Partner and Leadership Advisor • Build relationships with Engineering and Product leaders based on a deep understanding of their goals, challenges, and teams. • Coach leaders through performance concerns, difficult conversations, team conflict, and sensitive people decisions, providing direct feedback even when it's uncomfortable. • Partner with Employee Relations, Legal, and People Operations on investigations, accommodations, policy concerns, and employment actions, ensuring issues receive appropriate attention and follow-through. • Help leaders create environments where employees feel respected, can challenge ideas openly, raise concerns, learn from mistakes, and are held accountable for results. • Serve as the connection between business leaders and the broader People organiz
