Jordan Stelzner — CEO

I build people functions from the ground up. With over a decade of experience spanning HR and Talent Acquisition, I specialize in helping growth stage startups create the people infrastructure they need to scale intentionally. From the first employee handbook to a full hiring strategy, I’ve built it all in fast moving, resource constrained environments where getting it right the first time matters. My background covers the full employee lifecycle: talent strategy, onboarding, policy development, employee relations, and HR systems. But more than the mechanics, I focus on building workplaces that actually work for people, where culture isn’t just a value on a wall and HR is a strategic partner, not an afterthought. Currently serving as Head of People at Kintsugi, where I’m building the people function from scratch while supporting a growing remote team. I also consult fractionally with startups and scaling businesses through J4 Group, helping founders and operators build thoughtful, efficient people operations without the overhead of a full HR department. If you’re a startup that needs to build something real, I’d love to connect.
