Job description

ABOUT ARTERA
Our Mission: Make healthcare #1 in customer service.
 
What We Deliver: Artera is an agentic company strengthening how healthcare providers communicate and care for patients. As an agentic partner, we bring over a decade of healthcare experience to address urgent workflows from day one and build custom solutions as healthcare providers' needs evolve. Trusted by 1,000+ specialties, FQHCs, health systems, and federal agencies, Artera strengthens and protects and enhances patient relationships across every interaction - from intake and scheduling to referral management, post-visit care, and more.

Hear from our CEO, Guillaume de Zwirek, about why we are standing at the edge of the biggest technological shift in healthcare's history!

Our award-winning culture: Our award-winning culture: Since founding in 2015, Artera has consistently been recognized for its innovative technology, business growth, and named a top place to work. Examples of these accolades include: Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Private Companies (2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024); Deloitte Technology Fast 500 (2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025); Built In Best Companies to Work For (2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026). Artera has also been recognized by Forbes as one of "America's Best Startup Employers," Newsweek as one of the "World's Best Digital Health Companies," and named one of the top "44 Startups to Bet your Career on in 2024" by Business Insider.
 
Applicants must be currently authorized and have the ability to provide proof of full-time, long-term authorization to work in the United States. We are unable to provide visa sponsorship or support visa transfers now or in the future.

ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY 
 
This is a high-impact individual contributor role for a senior talent development leader who wants to build the playbook for what career growth, performance, and learning look like inside an AI-native company - not retrofit old programs onto new tools.
 
You'll own the systems that keep our workforce ahead of AI's pace: role charters that evolve as the work does, career ladders that reward AI-augmented output, performance frameworks that hold up under that bar, and manager enablement that makes all of it land. You'll sit on the People team reporting to the SVP of People for functional coherence, and spend the majority of your time cross-functionally - embedded with our Heads of Departments and other functional leaders - so the programs you build reflect how work actually gets done at Artera.
 
This role is for someone with the seniority and judgment to operate without a playbook, the craft to build programs that scale, and the personal fluency with AI tools to design an enablement function that looks nothing like a traditional L&D org.
Responsibilities
Role Design and Career Architecture
  • Partner with Heads of Departments and other functional leaders to continuously redesign role charters as AI capabilities evolve - translating "what this job is" from quarter to quarter
  • Own the career ladder framework across the company: leveling criteria, competency models, and promotion readiness standards that reflect AI-augmented expectations
  • Build the internal mobility model - how people move across squads, functions, and levels as the org reshapes
  • Coach employees and managers through career transitions from traditional to AI-augmented roles
 
Performance Management
  • Own the end-to-end performance cycle - framework design, calibration processes, 360 review facilitation, and manager tooling
  • Partner with the SVP of People and HR Team on performance calibration across functions, ensuring consistency of the bar
  • Build the mechanisms that surface promotion readiness, performance risk, and development needs in a repeatable, data-informed way

Learning, Enablement, and AI Upskilling
  • Design and run the AI upskilling strategy - how every Artera employee, across every function, raises their AI proficiency quarter over quarter
  • Build programs (not courses) - learning experiences that produce measurable productivity gains, not completion certificates
  • Partner with the Internal Knowledge and Tools Squad to operationalize AI-delivered skills assessments, personalized learning paths, and training content
  • Design the onboarding program so new hires reach their first meaningful deliverable in under four weeks
 
Manager Enablement
  • Own new-manager onboarding and ongoing manager training - from first-time leads through senior directors
  • Build the change management playbooks Artera leaders use when org design, roles, or tooling shift
  • Equip managers to run great 1:1s, deliver feedback, coach through AI-driven change, and own their team's health
 
Operating Rhythm
  • Own the monthly Talent and AI Enablement Review, inspecting AI proficiency, training impact, ramp time, manager effectiveness, and productivity gains with rotating leadership attendance
  • Contribute talent and enablement inputs to the Quarterly People Operating Review with the CEO and ELT
  • Bring a data-informed lens to everything - if it doesn't move a metric, it's not worth building
Requirements
  • 8+ years of experience in talent development, organizational development, L&D, or performance management, ideally with exposure to high-growth and/or AI-native companies
  • Personal, daily fluency with AI tools (Claude, Claude Code, or similar) - you don't just talk about AI-augmented work, you live it in your own workflows
  • Proven track record designing career ladders, competency models, or leveling frameworks from scratch or through significant overhaul
  • Hands-on ownership of a full performance management cycle - including calibration, 360s, and manager enablement
  • Experience building learning and enablement programs that produced measurable business outcomes, not just training completion
  • Track record partnering cross-functionally with senior leaders (VP/C-level) as a trusted thought partner, not an order-taker
  • Strong systems thinking - you see role design, career growth, performance, and enablement as one connected system
  • Excellent judgment, discretion, and written communication; comfort presenting to executive audiences
  • Ability to operate autonomously at the director level while sitting in an IC seat
  • Ability to be onsite 4-5 days per week in Seattle or Santa Barbara, with occasional travel to other locations as needed
Bonus
  • Experience inside an AI-native or AI-forward company where AI was a core driver of how work got done
  • Background redesigning roles or career frameworks specifically in response to AI adoption
  • Experience with Rippling (HRIS) and modern performance management tooling
  • Prior exposure to healthcare, SaaS, or other regulated industries
$170,000 - $235,000 a year
OUR APPROACH TO WORK LOCATION

At Artera, we believe the best work happens when people are truly connected. Our AI services model has shown what's possible when small, focused teams move fast together - the speed of collaboration, pace of career growth, and quality of what we build can become stronger when teams share space. As we grow, we want every new teammate to feel part of an in-person community from day one.

That's why we are focusing our U.S. hiring in three cities, where we are investing in offices and building strong local teams:

  • Santa Barbara, CA (Our HQ)
  • Seattle, WA
  • Kansas City, KS/MO

Unless a role's posting states otherwise, new U.S. roles are based in one of these three cities, and candidates should reside in (or be willing to relocate to) one of these areas. Each location follows an in-person schedule that reflects how our local teams work best; we'll walk you through what to expect for your specific role and city during the interview process.

Focusing on offices and hiring in a few locations, rather than spreading thin across many cities, lets us invest deeply in each one so every team has real community, mentorship, and momentum in person.

WORKING AT ARTERA 
Company benefits - Full health benefits (medical, dental, and vision), flexible spending accounts, company paid life insurance, company paid short-term & long-term disability, company equity, voluntary benefits, 401(k) and more! 
Career development - Manager development resources, employee development funds
