WHO WE ARE
Hi, we’re Revolve – a growing software house based in Katowice, Poland
Our amazing developers specialize in JavaScript and Python-related technologies. We build and deliver custom software solutions for clients from around the globe
We’ve been on the market since 2016 and we’ve worked with clients such as Dr.Max (Poland), Orikami (Netherlands), or Smart4Diagnostics (Germany). Our long-term goal is to become one of the best software development companies in the healthcare industry – that includes pharma, biotech, life science, and more. The products and software we work on have a real influence on people’s lives. In our work, we believe in mutual trust, self-development, and transparency.
We’re a people-first company – and we don’t just say that, we actually mean it. Revolve’s culture is defined by the people who work here. Each one of us is kind of weird in his or her own way, and we love it that way. It makes us unique. We enjoy each other’s company a lot, but we also understand when someone doesn’t want to be distracted. We respect deep work and personal space.
Come and meet us (virtually or in our office) to find out more!
HOW WE WORK
Most of our projects involve several people working directly with clients. In our daily work, we use Agile methodologies with well-known tools like Slack, Jira, Git, etc. 
Our developers work as full-stacks in modern technologies of our (and their) choice. Good development practices, like code review, are essential, and we use them in everyday work. We are pragmatic, so each decision can be changed based on good argumentation. We don’t dictate, we collaborate.
We love spending time together in our office in Katowice, but we also allow remote work when necessary. Our preferred working model is a hybrid one: 2-3 days from the office and 2-3 days from home.
The team is 100% Polish at the moment, but most of our clients are from abroad, so we communicate in English with them.
WHO YOU (IDEALLY) ARE
We’re looking for someone who will help us grow from 27 to 100 great team members in 5 years. It’s a big challenge that we don’t take lightly, and neither should you. There will be a lot of hard work along the way, some of it very much down-to-earth and possibly boring, some just OK, but most super exciting. That’s why we’re looking for someone who feels excited about joining us now and growing with us over the next years or even decades.
There are some criteria we have in mind for this position, but feel free to convince us that you’re the ideal candidate even if you can’t check all of the boxes quite yet! Keep in mind that this role will develop and change as our company grows. The tasks you’ll be responsible for in the beginning won’t be the same ones you’ll be doing a year from now. 
We’re not looking for “just an HR Manager”, “just a recruiter,” or “just a Happiness Officer”. We’re looking for someone who will combine all of these roles and then some, defining and designing what being the Head of People means at every stage of our company’s development.
Having said that, here are things we’re expecting a person in this role to do:
  • search for potential candidates (sourcing);
  • coordinate the recruitment process: creation and posting of job offers in cooperation with responsible Team Leaders, speaking with candidates, scheduling interviews, following up, onboarding, offboarding;
  • coordinate feedback-gathering activities – for projects done internally and in the Team Augmentation model;
  • design and oversee a constant feedback process at company level;
  • make sure all employees are heard, happy with working at Revolve, and that they feel like we take care of their work-related, learning & development needs, and other needs;
  • supervise “hard HR” activities: keeping track of employees’ contacts, important dates, and documentation completeness, periodic health examinations; health and safety trainings (BHP); PPK (Employee Capital Plans) management; payroll data preparation (overtime, benefits, etc.) and helping with collecting data for B2B employee invoices;
  • help us define and nurture our company’s culture – make sure all current and future employees are a good fit for Revolve and we’re a good fit for them;
  • help us create a hybrid (remote/office) working model that actually works – both for the company as a whole and for every single employee;
  • be responsible for building the People Team – starting with just you and expanding to as many people as you think are needed at different stages of company development.
So, it’s definitely good if you:
  • feel like you’re a good fit for Revolve;
  • are not afraid of challenges, plus you know when to handle them yourself and when to ask for help;
  • want to grow together with us;
  • know how to create opportunities for yourself, as well as for the people you work with;
  • use both data and intuition to make decisions;
  • want to be involved in both the day-to-day and strategic activities;
  • love working with people and want to see them happy;
  • can convince a not-so-sure candidate to accept that interview invitation in three (spoken/written) interactions or less;
  • have a positive, go-getter attitude that’s infectious;
  • know and understand the formal side of HR: employment contracts, social insurance, payroll management, net and gross differences between different types of contracts, etc.;
  • have 4+ years of working experience, including at least 2 years in People Operations, HR and/or recruiting, preferably in a software house or another tech company;
  • communicate in (spoken and written) English on at least B2 level, while also being a native Polish speaker.
It’s extra nice if you also:
  • are familiar with a few applicant tracking systems, onboarding tools, and employee wellbeing platforms, but are open to using ones that are most relevant for our company, as opposed to just the ones you’re used to;
  • are a good writer and can help us craft beautiful job descriptions (and you’re already thinking about how this one could be improved);
  • have experience in IT recruiting and an understanding of modern software technologies – you understand the difference between Java and Javascript;
  • are up to date with HR and IT industry trends;
  • can showcase your successes at previous HR-related jobs (like a track record of hiring hard-to-fill tech roles, or increasing employee retention).
WHAT YOU GET
You will be teaming up with open-minded, empathetic people who are great to work with and want to learn from each other. Your presence in a team will have a significant impact on Revolve’s development and future shape. If all works out, you will become the single most important person in People Operations, joining our co-CEOs at the executive level.
On a more material level, we offer a competitive salary, modern working conditions (flexible work hours, benefits, learning & development opportunities, and more), and all the equipment you need to do your job well. And we seriously do use that foosball table we have at the office a lot! We love plants and pets too – you’ll probably see a lot of that at the office. 
APPLY!
