Great Question is the all-in-one customer research platform for understanding your customers. Run interviews, surveys, and prototype tests; query support tickets, app store reviews, and sales calls; and use AI to analyze it all in one place.
We’re a well-funded, seed-stage startup backed by Y Combinator and Funders Club, working with some of the most innovative companies in the world like Gusto, Experian, Canva & Brex.
Our company thrives on high trust, high agency and high EQ people. We believe in work being fun (you spend a lot of time there!), and you should enjoy the people you work with. We’re mostly remote but looking to establish regional hubs through 2025 (something we will need your help with!).
At Great Question, we're building the future of customer research — and to scale the right way, we know that building a world-class team experience is just as important as building a world-class product.
We’re looking for an experienced, agile, high-agency Talent and People Operations Manager to join our fast-growing, fully remote team. You’ll be the first dedicated People & Culture hire, playing a crucial role in shaping how we recruit, develop, and support our team as we scale.
This role touches every part of the employee journey — from streamlining recruitment and onboarding, to building performance and compensation processes, to elevating our company culture and employee experience.
Yes, it’s a lot.
And yes, it’s exciting.
This is a rare opportunity to help lay the foundations for a company growing quickly and thoughtfully.
We’ve prioritized the most urgent needs first — and expect your focus to evolve over time as we grow.
