About Basis

Basis builds real agents that do real work in the real economy. Our agents operate for hours at a time, performing end-to-end work for some of the largest accounting firms in the world.

We recently raised $100M at >$1B valuation and are racing to deploy the most advanced applied ML at production scale.

"Basis is on the frontier of building production-grade, long-horizon agents. They've pushed the limits of what we thought our models could do on real-world, economically valuable, complex accounting tasks. They've been a great collaborator in helping us shape what the future of agents looks like." — Prashant Mital, Applied AI Lead, OpenAI

What You'll Be Doing

Basis is looking for a People Business Partner to help scale the people systems behind our next stage of growth. You'll advise leaders on organization design, workforce planning, performance, manager development, employee relations, and organizational health. This role reports to the People Ops Lead.

You'll operate as a strategic thought partner and a hands-on builder - embedded closely enough with your teams to know their roadmap, their metrics, and their people. You'll bring a point of view, not a playbook.

This is a high-ownership role for someone who combines People fundamentals with systems thinking, strong business judgment, and the credibility to move senior leaders. You should enjoy operating close to the business while helping define what great partnership looks like here
