About the Role

We’re looking for a strategic and people-focused Team Partner Lead to guide a small group of Team Partners and support high-impact organizational initiatives.

• Create and own strategic relationships with senior stakeholders and drive broader organizational initiatives.
• Act as a key point of contact for complex team transitions, escalations, or performance issues.
• Act as a people partner to assigned teams, supporting managers and team members with interpersonal, organizational, and performance-related topics.
• Help guide and support team changes such as growth, restructuring, role clarification, or leadership transitions.
• Foster open and constructive communication within and between teams.
• Facilitate conversations around team health, feedback, and expectations.
• Contribute to improving cross-functional collaboration and stakeholder alignment.
• Support internal communication initiatives to enhance transparency and connectedness.
• Actively participate in change management efforts across the organization.
• In the future, play a key role in team development and long-term people initiatives.
• Collaborate with other HR functions (Recruiting, L&D, Compensation & Benefits, etc.) to ensure holistic support for your teams.
• Promote JetBrains’ values through a people-first, solutions-oriented approach.

What We’re Looking For:

• Previous experience with leading a team.
• Minimum of 5 years of experience as a Team Partner, HR Business Partner, or HR Partner in the software or technology industry.
• Additional experience in people operations, organizational development, L&D, C&B, onboarding, or similar people-facing roles.
• Strategic thinking combined with a hands-on, pragmatic approach.
• Resilience, adaptability, and the ability to remain calm and focused during periods of uncertainty or change.
• Experience of leading or designing change management initiatives.
• Fluency in English; additional languages are a plus.
