HR platform for hiring, payroll, and employee engagement at mid-market scale
HiBob operates a full-stack HR platform (Bob) built on PostgreSQL, Java/Kotlin/Scala backend, and AWS/GCP infrastructure, with emerging AI capabilities (OpenAI, RAG, pgvector, Pinecone). The tech choices—dual data warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, ClickHouse), streaming (Kafka, Airflow), and analytics tooling (Gong, SingleStore)—indicate a company scaling from core HR transactional volume toward data-driven insights and payroll automation. Current hiring is sales-heavy (43 roles) alongside engineering, reflecting a product-market fit phase with acute focus on churn reduction and renewal optimization.
Notable leadership hires: Product Director, Professional Services Lead, Sales Director, Marketing Director, Pricing Director
