About NUUK
- Appliances don't have to be boring.
- For too long, they stood still while people and homes evolved.
- NUUK exists to challenge that. We are a team of engineers, designers, and operators building from first principles - stripping away the unnecessary and creating products that actually deserve a place in modern Indian homes.
- But great products don't scale without great systems.
- And that's where this role comes in.

This Role Lives Inside Our POWER Team
At NUUK, we don't have HR.
We have POWER.
POWER = People - Organization - Workplace - Experience - Readiness
This is not a support function.
This is the operating system of the company.
- POWER is the team that works directly with founders to design:
- How performance works
- How teams are structured
- How talent grows
- How culture scales
- If the company grows, POWER grows first.
What is this role about?
This is not an HR role.
This is a people systems + org design role.
- You will design and drive how performance and talent work at NUUK.
- You won't inherit polished systems
- You won't follow playbooks
- You will build, test, break, and rebuild
- You'll sit in the same rooms where business decisions are made and shape how people decisions enable them.
What will you do?
1. Performance Architecture :
- Design NUUK's performance philosophy from first principles
- Build systems for goal-setting, reviews, and continuous feedback
- Make performance a daily operating rhythm, not an annual process
- Use data to drive clarity, accountability, and outcomes
2. Talent Strategy & Leadership Pipeline :
- Build talent review and succession frameworks from scratch
- Identify high-potential talent early and accelerate their growth
- Create career paths that make top talent stay and thrive
- Partner with leaders on critical people decisions
3. Compensation & Org Design :
- Design compensation structures that are fair, competitive, and motivating
- Work with founders on org structure, team design, and role clarity
- Anticipate scale problems before they show up
4. Manager & Leadership Enablement :
- Build playbooks, rituals, and frameworks that make managers better leaders
- Enable teams to operate with clarity and ownership
- Drive consistency in how performance and feedback are handled across NUUK
5. Strategic Influence :
- Work directly with founders on high-impact decisions
- Use data + judgment to influence business outcomes
- Act as a thought partner, not just a function owner
Who we're looking for
- 4-6 years in Performance/Talent/HRBP/Rewards roles
- Strong experience in startup or high-growth environments
- Proven ability to build systems, not just operate them
- Comfortable working in ambiguity and fast-moving setups
- High ownership - you don't wait, you create clarity
- Strong mix of structured thinking + human understanding
- Ability to influence leaders, not just support them
- If you're looking for stability and defined playbooks, this role will frustrate you.
- If you want to build them, you'll thrive here.
Why This Role is Different
- You will work directly with founders from Day 1
- You will shape how NUUK scales - not just support it
- You will build systems that don't exist yet
- You will have a real seat at the table
Why join NUUK?
- Build from zero, not maintain legacy
- High ownership, high-visibility role
- Exposure across business, not just people function
- Opportunity to define what a modern POWER team looks like
- Work with a team that is serious about building
- NUUK is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employee
"We believe Indian homes deserve world-class products, and we won't stop until every nook and corner has a NUUK."
- We're a band of obsessive doers and audacious dreamers - engineers, designers, and operators who run on caffeine, first principles, and a shared belief that Indian homes deserve way more than what the appliance industry has been giving them. Our culture code is simple: be customer-obsessed, do deep work, show true grit, think differently, and always speak up.
- If you want to do the best work of your life - pull up a chair. We've been waiting for you.
