People Operations Specialist
About The Role The role owns the day-to-day systems and programs that keep a fast-growing team running: onboarding, HRIS data integrity, benefits administration, and the policies behind them. This is a hands-on operations role for someone who treats people processes like products — measurable, documented, and continuously improved. The position sits at the intersection of people, finance, and IT, and reports into a lean People team. The impact is direct: every new hire's first week, every benefits enrollment, and every compliance deadline runs through work this role owns.
