Founded in 2021, we’ve grown quickly—now serving 200,000+ seniors in 1,500+ communities across 32 states. Our team includes more than 1,000 clinicians alongside care coordinators, analysts, operators, and professionals from all backgrounds, all working together to deliver high-quality, proactive solutions for senior living operators and those they care for.

To further this incredible mission, we’re reimagining what it means to be a People team—moving beyond traditional HR to become an engine of innovation and impact. Our mandate is clear: we are a product team with an internal customer – we must design intentional, scalable provider experiences and build agile systems that keep pace with and fuel the rapid growth of the organization. 

Imagine being part of a lean, dynamic HR team where your ideas and initiatives directly contribute to meaningful improvements in healthcare, surrounded by a tight-knit crew who genuinely care about each other and are obsessed with caring for one of our most vulnerable populations. If you’re looking for a place where you can see your work matter every single day—and help build something new as we grow like crazy—you’ll fit right in as our Head of People and Talent Transformation. 

We thrive on hands-on work, insatiable curiosity, and a balance of strategic vision with the drive to achieve rapid impact through tactical execution. If you're a systems-thinker who is passionate about unlocking human potential – inventive, organized, resourceful, detail-oriented, and great at holding others accountable – this is a great opportunity to make a positive impact on the world and learn a ton in the process.
