As our Program Manager, People Programs, you will design, launch, and scale programs that strengthen our workplace culture, foster growth, and drive retention.

  • Optimize Onboarding & Hybrid Connection: Refine onboarding workflows and resources to ensure new hybrid and remote hires are supported, informed, and connected from day one.
  • Enable Performance & Growth: Develop and maintain company-wide performance system. Partner with HRBPs to facilitate seamless performance cycles (OKRs, mid-year check-ins, annual reviews, calibrations). Create lightweight toolkits to help managers give actionable feedback.
  • Scale Manager & Team Enablement: Identify core capabilities gaps alongside HRBPs to design and deliver practical manager workshops, learning tracks, and career pathing resources.
  • Measure Program Effectiveness: Establish clear program success metrics (participation, eNPS, retention, cycle completion).


Skills that will help you thrive

  • Experience & Education: 5+ years in HR, People Operations, or Employee Program Management, with 2+ years directly involved in engagement, performance management, employee experience, or talent development programs. Bachelor's degree required.
  • HRBP & Leadership Collaboration: Proven ability to partner effectively with HRBPs and other People Team leaders as well as coordinating across company leadership to execute programs.
  • Performance & Goal Systems: Direct experience coordinating performance management processes, calibration sessions, or goal-setting frameworks (e.g., Lattice, Culture Amp, Betterworks).
  • End-to-End Ownership: Proven track record of taking program concepts from initial design to full rollout, including change management and communications.
  • Analytical & Empathetic: Skilled at identifying human trends behind raw survey data and converting friction points into practical solutions.
  • Strong Communication & Facilitation Skills: Comfortable leading manager workshops, and writing clear internal communications.
  • Inclusion Mindset: Experience embedding diversity, equity, and inclusion principles into program design and supporting ERGs.
