The Opportunity

We're looking for a People Operations Coordinator who wants to be the engine behind a great employee experience. You'll support Onboarding, Systems, Benefits, Recruiting, and Compliance — the behind-the-scenes work that makes Canopy a place people genuinely love working at. This is a role for someone who takes real pride in getting the details right, moves fast, and finds satisfaction in a smooth, well-oiled process.

If you love people, love systems, and love making both work better together — keep reading.

What You'll Do

Onboarding & Offboarding

  • Own the New Hire Experience end-to-end — offers out the door, background checks and paperwork wrapped up, a great first-day orientation, and I-9/E-Verify handled without a hitch.
  • Manage offboarding with the same care: clean exit processes, systems updated, and COBRA.

People Systems

  • Keep our People Systems accurate, current, and running like clockwork.
  • Look for ways to use AI and automation to make People Ops faster and more accurate — we want you to bring ideas, not just execute ours.
  • Pitch in on audits and reporting throughout the year.

Other

  • Help answer employee questions.
  • Assist with equity and payroll administration.
  • Support the recruiting team with scheduling, reference checks, onsite interviews.
  • Support employment verifications and unemployment claims.
  • Administer training through our Learning Management System.

What We're Looking For

  • 2+ years in a People Operations role, with experience in onboarding and HRIS.
  • Strong technical skills with HR systems — you're comfortable learning new tools quickly and using them well.
  • Bachelor's Degree in HR, Business Administration, or related field preferred.
  • A warm, people-first demeanor and a genuine interest in helping employees have a great experience.
  • Sharp attention to detail — accuracy and organization aren't optional for you.
  • A quick, adaptable pace — you can shift with the team's needs and always follow through.
  • Curiosity and a desire to learn across multiple disciplines within a People Team.
  • Sound judgment and the highest degree of confidentiality and discretion.
  • Experience with tools like HRIS, ATS, Google Suite, Articulate, and AI tools.

Bonus Points

  • Experience in Tech/SaaS.
  • Familiarity with our People Tech Stack: Rippling, Lattice, Greenhouse, & NectarHR and AI tools.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
