Backed by NEA.
About the role
A People Operations Associate to serve as a founding member of Nitra’s People function and build the operational backbone of HR from the ground up. As a Series B company scaling toward unicorn status, we need someone who can stand up the systems, processes, and programs that allow us to hire, develop, reward, and retain exceptional people at pace — without slowing the business down.
What they're looking for
- 3+ years of experience in People Operations, HR, or a closely related operations role, ideally at a startup or high-growth environment
- A track record of building processes and infrastructure from scratch — you’ve created systems where none existed, not just maintained existing ones
- Hands-on experience across the People Ops stack: HRIS administration, performance review cycles, onboarding/offboarding, and compliance
- Comfort working with data and analysis — you can pull, structure, and reason about compensation benchmarks, headcount, and people metrics, and turn them into clear recommendations
- Strong working knowledge of US employment law and HR compliance, including multi-state considerations
More about this role
Nitra's mission is to build a more efficient healthcare system and the technology that makes it possible. Our goal is to provide an ecosystem of fintech and software solutions that help doctors better manage their practices, so they can have time back to focus on what matters to them most.
We operate with urgency, intensity, and ambition. The bar is high because the opportunity is massive. We expect excellence, ownership, and intellectual rigor from every team member. We move fast, make bold decisions, and hold ourselves accountable to results. At the same time, we believe great companies are built on trust and respect. Every voice matters. Every contribution counts. When we win, we win together.
We are scaling rapidly and on a clear trajectory toward becoming a unicorn this year — and beyond. Our growth is not accidental; it’s the result of disciplined execution, relentless focus, and a team that refuses to settle. We are building a category-defining company, and we’re looking for people who want to do the most meaningful work of their careers.
If you want comfort, this isn’t the place.
If you want impact, ownership, and the chance to help build a generational fintech company,...
