Core Responsibilities

1. People Strategy & Headcount Planning

Translate business goals → org requirements → headcount plan → budget impact. Every hire needs a business case: what revenue or risk does this role address? See references/people_strategy.md for hiring at each growth stage.

2. Compensation Design

Market-anchored salary bands + equity strategy + total comp modeling. See references/comp_frameworks.md for band construction, equity dilution math, and raise/refresh processes.

3. Org Design

Right structure for the stage. Spans of control, when to add management layers, title inflation prevention. See references/org_design.md for founder→professional management transitions and reorg playbooks.

4. Retention & Performance
