About NexHealth

Our healthcare system remains frustratingly analog. When you live in a world of one-tap car rides, instant meal delivery, and unlimited streaming, why do you still have to call to schedule a doctor’s appointment—and fill out a clipboard in the waiting room?

NexHealth’s mission is to accelerate innovation in healthcare by connecting patients, providers, and developers. We’re the first to fully automate the integration with health-record systems, paving the way for a new generation of disruptive health-tech companies.

We’re building the infrastructure layer for modern healthcare—connecting thousands of fragmented, on-premise, and closed EHR systems into a single, modern platform that powers software, APIs, payments, and patient experiences across the ecosystem.

• Founded: 2017
• Headquarters: San Francisco, CA
• Funding: $177M Series C 
• Employees: 200+
• Trusted by tens of thousands of providers and hundreds of health-tech developers — forging the infrastructure layer that modern healthcare needs

About the Role

We’re looking for a People Operations Partner to own and scale the programs, systems, and processes that power the employee experience at NexHealth. Reporting to the COO, you’ll own the backbone of our people infrastructure—spanning HR systems, compliance, benefits and the full employee lifecycle.

This is a senior individual contributor role with potential to evolve into a people leadership position as the function grows. The ideal candidate is someone who can architect scalable processes, drive data-informed decisions, and build the connective tissue between People, Finance, and Leadership. You’ll play a critical role in ensuring NexHealth grows responsibly, efficiently, and in alignment with our culture and operating principles.

What You’ll Do

• Build and scale HR infrastructure: Design, implement, and manage the systems and policies that govern the employee lifecycle—from onboarding to offboarding. Ensure every process is structured for accuracy, compliance, and scalability as we grow.
• Lead People Operations programs: Oversee day-to-day HR operations including employee transitions, immigration, and compliance tracking. Manage HR policies, process documentation, and people data integrity across Rippling and Greenhouse.
• Ensure compliance and governance: Maintain compliance with federal, state, and local employment regulations. Partner with external counsel and auditors as needed to ensure adherence to all requirements and internal policies.
• Lead total rewards operations: Oversee benefits administration and open enrollment. Support compensation programs and operations, including job leveling, benchmarking, offers, equity workflows, and compensation cycle readiness. 
• Drive people analytics and insights: Partner with Talent Operations to develop dashboards and reporting frameworks to track headcount, retention, engagement, and performance. Translate data into actionable insights that guide strategic decisions across the company.
• Partner cross-functionally to align people and business priorities: Work closely with Talent and IT to ensure seamless integration of people, systems, and structure. Serve as the operational glue between People, Talent, and Business functions.
• Champion the employee experience: Build programs that reinforce clarity, consistency, and operational excellence. Create efficient processes that allow Nexers to focus on impact, not administration.

What You’ll Bring

• 7+ years of experience in HR, People Operations, or Total Rewards within a high-growth tech environment
• Deep understanding of HR systems, compliance, and benefits operations; compensation experience is a plus
• Strong understanding of U.S. employment law and multi-state compliance requirements
• Hands-on experience with HR tech (Rippling, Greenhouse, or comparable HRIS and ATS)
• High degree of analytical capability—able to design dashboards and interpret people data
• Exceptional stakeholder management and communication skills, including cross-functional partnership 
• High ownership, structured thinking, and operational rigor; detail-oriented without losing sight of scale
• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience; SHRM-CP/PHR preferred

Location

This role is based in San Francisco with hybrid flexibility. We are open to considering strong remote candidates based in the U.S.

Base Salary Range: $120,000 – $170,000 USD per year (based on experience and location)
