The Opportunity

As Manager, People & Culture, you’ll be responsible for building and scaling the people foundations that support MedMe’s next stage of growth.

MedMe is scaling quickly — hiring across geographies, operating as a mix of remote and hybrid teams, and expanding into new markets. This role exists to make sure our people systems, culture, and day-to-day employee experience scale with the company without becoming heavy, expensive, or overly corporate.

You’ll own HR, people operations, and culture end to end. From onboarding and performance management, training and internal communications, to manager support, policies, and employee experience, you’ll bring structure where it’s needed and keep things lightweight where it’s not. You’ll help turn early-stage practices into repeatable systems that work across teams, time zones, and growth phases.

You’ll work closely with the executive team and founders, helping translate leadership intent into clear expectations, strong systems, and consistent ways of working across the company. While you’ll help shape things strategically, this is a hands-on, operational role where you’ll set the structure, standards, and healthy accountability that allow people to do their best work.

This role is ideal for someone who has supported a startup through rapid growth and understands how to mature people operations thoughtfully, balancing speed, clarity, compliance, and culture while staying capital-efficient.
