Healthcare Analytics powers that purpose, building AI-powered analytics solutions to help care reach consumers affordably and on time. This role is the right hand to the SVP leading Healthcare Analytics. You will own the numbers that keep the organization funded and accountable, the processes that keep it running day to day, and the communications that share its success stories with senior leadership and colleagues. This is a high-visibility seat for someone who wants to operate at the intersection of innovation, strategy, finance, and storytelling inside one of the largest analytics organizations in healthcare. ## What you will own Financial stewardship: manage the capital and operating budget across the portfolio, track value realization and ROI against committed initiatives, and build the financial narrative for budget reviews with business partners. Operational rhythm: run the recruiting pipeline, manage onboarding so new colleagues get up to speed effectively, organize leadership onsite workshops, and own meeting cadence to drive transparency and engagement. Executive communication: produce executive-ready materials, including leadership updates and other communications to represent the organization’s work with partners and stakeholders, both internal and external. This includes crafting the agenda and content for townhalls. Strategic planning and performance management support: partner on annual and mid-year planning cycles, including goal setting and tracking progress against commitments through scorecard and metrics updates. Talent management processes: run talent reviews and calibration, analyze Colleague Engagement survey results and drive the resulting action items, and support talent growth. Cross-functional coordination: serve as a connective point with peer Chiefs of Staff and the broader Digital, Data, Analytics and Technology organization to share best practices and coordinate updates. Issue resolution: identify and clear the blockers that slow initiatives down, escalating to the SVP as needed. What makes someone successful Genuine comfort with numbers, understanding what they mean for our scorecard and overall budget. Process discipline combined with creative solutioning and the instinct to build a system once rather than solve the same problem ad hoc every quarter. Strong executive presence in writing, knowing how to lead with key compelling messages and inspiring stories. High level understanding of AI to enable effective storytelling. Judgment about what needs the SVP’s attention and what can be handled independently. Comfort with ambiguity and change management, given all the exciting opportunities and disruption that AI is bringing to our field. Proficiency with (or eagerness to learn) using AI tools in their work to augment their role and provide support to the broader Healthcare Analytics leadership team. Required qualifications 10 years of total business experience, with a track record of managing budgets, building operational processes, and producing executive-level deliverables. Strong financial acumen, including experience tracking ROI or value realization on initiatives. Demonstrated experience managing structured processes such as recruiting pipelines, onboarding, or cross-functional meeting cadences. Excellent written communication skills, with examples of executive-ready materials produced with minimal senior leader input. Comfort operating in a fast-moving, matrixed organization without a dedicated team to delegate to. Familiarity with a product-oriented way of working, including how teams organize around products, ownership, and delivery. Healthcare or insurance industry experience preferred. Education Bachelor’s degree required. MBA or master’s degree in a quantitative or business field preferred. ## About Hop ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Hop (HopHR) is a recruitment platform that connects U.S. companies with pre-vetted AI, machine learning, and data science talent from Latin America. - **Entity Type**: Private (Bootstrapped) - **Headquarters**: Walnut Creek, California, United States - **Founded**: 2016 - **Founders**: Nazli Nadem and Arash Sohrabian ## Core Business - **Primary industry/industries**: Staffing and Recruiting (specialized in AI/ML and data science talent) - **Target customers**: B2B – startups to Fortune 500 companies seeking technical talent, especially in AI, machine learning, and data engineering - **Mission or purpose statement**: “Break geographic barriers, giving global talent access to high-paying, future-focused roles” and promote diversity in tech hiring. ## Products & Services - **Recruitment Platform**: AI-driven matching and vetting platform that evaluates candidates using proprietary technology; only top 1 in 500 talents are selected. - **Direct Hire**: Full-time placement of pre-vetted engineers (AI/ML, data science, full-stack, MLOps, etc.) with a 16-day selection process. - **Contract-to-Hire**: Trial period engagements before committing to a full-time offer. - **Team Augmentation**: On-demand scaling of engineering capacity with LATAM-based talent working in U.S. time zones. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed - **Key Metric**: Headcount of 16 employees (+12.5% YoY); talent pool of over 100,000 data science and AI professionals worldwide (including 35,000+ women in tech) - **Notable Investors/Partners**: No disclosed investors; trusted by startups and Fortune 500 companies; featured in Forbes. - **Growth Signals**: 80% client return rate; LinkedIn followers growing +10.5% yearly; expanding marketing team (hiring Marketing Manager as of Sep 2024). ## Competitive Advantages - **LATAM Focus**: Timezone-aligned talent (mostly Latin America) enabling real-time collaboration at lower cost compared to U.S.-based hires. - **Rigorous Vetting**: Proprietary 16-day evaluation covering technical skills, communication, and cultural fit; only top 1 in 500 candidates pass. - **Diversity Commitment**: Actively promotes hiring of women and underrepresented groups in tech; over 35,000 women in their talent pool. - **AI-Powered Matching**: Uses machine learning algorithms and a human-segmented database to surface the best candidates quickly. ## Strategic Focus - **Geographic Expansion**: Continue breaking barriers by connecting LATAM talent with U.S. companies, with a goal to uplift communities. - **AI Talent Specialization**: Deepening expertise in generative AI, LLMs, and MLOps to meet growing demand. - **Scalability**: Offering flexible engagement models (direct hire, contract-to-hire, augmentation) to adapt to client needs. ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: Rated 4.2/5.0 on employer reviews (Culture: 4.3, Career: 4.3, Compensation: 3.8).
