About the job
Harvey is transforming how legal and professional services operate by combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise. This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point, with strong product-market fit and world-class investor support. The team moves fast, takes ownership, and is deeply committed to the mission. The People Operations Coordinator, Onboarding supports the operational foundation of Harvey's new hire experience, running the logistics, systems, and processes that make onboarding work end-to-end. This hands-on coordination role sits at the center of a fast-growing People team, partnering daily with the People Operations team and cross-functionally with People Systems, Recruiting, Benefits, Payroll, and Legal. The onboarding program is scaling quickly and still being built in places, so this person will both execute a high volume of moving pieces with precision and help improve the systems and materials as the program matures.

- Manage new hire communications, support onboarding automations, and surface feedback to improve the program at scale.
Requirements
- 1-3+ years in HR, People Operations, onboarding, event management, or a related operations or coordination role.
- Experience with an HRIS (Workday strongly preferred); familiarity with onboarding workflows is a plus.
