Human Capital Director

About the role

We're hiring a Human Capital Director to own the people strategy that enables Cadence's growth, operational performance, and workforce readiness as the company scales. You will serve as the primary strategic advisor to executive and senior leadership on organizational design, talent, and workforce planning - connecting people decisions directly to revenue, margin, and care delivery outcomes. This role sits at the center of the People team and operates across Talent Acquisition, Total Rewards, People Operations, and People Technology to ensure our investments in people are aligned with where the business is going.

Responsibilities

• Own the annual and long-range strategic workforce planning process in partnership with finance and executive leadership, translating growth targets and productivity goals into headcount investment strategies.
• Advise executive and senior leaders on organizational design, leadership effectiveness, and team structure - providing clear recommendations, not just frameworks.
• Drive enterprise talent mapping and succession planning for critical leadership and specialized roles, building readiness for roles that don't exist yet.
• Define and execute the AI competency development strategy for the workforce, with a clear mandate to deliver measurable impact on margin and OKRs by Q3 2026.
• Translate business priorities into people program design - aligning compensation, performance management, engagement, and development initiatives with company strategy.
• Analyze workforce data to identify risks and opportunities in hiring, retention, productivity, and organizational health, and deliver recommendations that move leaders to action.
• Lead organizational effectiveness work across high-growth teams - guiding leaders through change, accountability design, and team performance improvement.
• What You Need
• 10 or more years of progressive HR business partnering and strategic HR experience, with at least several years operating at a senior or director level.
• Experience partnering with executive teams in high-growth environments; healthcare technology or technology industry experience strongly preferred.
• Demonstrated expertise in strategic workforce planning, organizational design, and talent management.
• Financial and business acumen sufficient to connect people strategy to revenue, margin, and growth outcomes - and to be credible in budget and planning conversations.
• Proven track record influencing senior leaders and driving organizational change in a matrixed environment.
• Proficiency in workforce analytics and dashboard-based reporting, with the ability to turn data into decisions.
• Working knowledge of HR operating models and HR technologies, including HRIS, ATS, and AI-enabled productivity tools.
• Fluency with AI research and productivity tools and the ability to evaluate AI-driven insights critically, distinguishing signal from noise in a fast-moving information environment.

Additional Information

Sixty million Medicare seniors live with chronic disease. The care system sees most of them twice a year. Cadence is building the infrastructure to support them every day. Cadence is a clinical AI company that delivers continuous, proactive care for older adults with chronic conditions like hypertension, heart failure, and diabetes. We pair patients with a dedicated clinical team, integrate deeply into health system EMRs and workflows, and use our Clinical Intelligence platform to monitor vitals, surface risk early, optimize medications, and close care gaps between visits. The result: patients engage with care 100x more than before Cadence, clinicians focus on judgment instead of administrative work, and Medicare saves $2M a week. We operate as a full clinical care delivery organization, not a software vendor. Our clinicians work alongside health system partners, extending the reach of local primary care providers into patients' homes. We're now applying AI agents across these workflows - from alert review and medication titration to lifestyle coaching and care coordination - with clinicians always in control of clinical decisions.
