Overview Granica is redefining how enterprises prepare and optimize data at the most fundamental layer of the AI stack—where raw information becomes usable intelligence. Our technology operates deep in the data infrastructure layer, making data efficient, secure, and ready for scale. We eliminate the hidden inefficiencies in modern data platforms—slashing storage and compute costs, accelerating pipelines, and boosting platform efficiency. The result: 60%+ lower storage costs, up to 60% lower compute spend, 3× faster data processing, and 20% overall efficiency gains.

Why It Matters Massive data should fuel innovation, not drain budgets. We remove the bottlenecks holding AI and analytics back—making data lighter, faster, and smarter so teams can ship breakthroughs, not babysit storage and compute bills.

Our Mission:

We’re building the default data substrate for AI, and a generational company built to endure.

The Role This isn’t a standard People Ops role- it’s an opportunity to

build the operating system for a 10x company . As Granica scales from a world-class startup into a generational company, this person will architect the systems, programs, and culture that make that possible.

You’ll own the full employee experience, from onboarding and operations to engagement and development, serving as the

connective tissue

that helps every Ninja (our teammates) do their best work. You’ll operate as both

architect and builder : strategic enough to design for scale, yet hands-on enough to roll up your sleeves daily.

This is a

high-impact, in-office role

based in Mountain View, blending tactical execution with strategic influence as we grow from ~40 to 80 employees across multiple locations. You’ll partner closely with leadership to ensure our people programs are not only compliant and efficient, but also reflect our values of

ownership, curiosity, and excellence .
