Human Interest is on a mission to ensure that people in all lines of work have access to retirement benefits.

More than half of all working Americans are not saving enough for their future. Too often, it’s because they are employed by a company that doesn’t offer a retirement plan. Human Interest is changing that by making it affordable and accessible for small and medium-sized businesses to offer employees a path to financial independence through retirement savings.

We’re a high-growth fintech company changing the retirement industry. We are backed by a number of investors. This includes funding from Marshall Wace and Baillie Gifford, as well as top investors such as BlackRock, TPG (The Rise Fund), SoftBank, Glynn Capital, NewView Capital, USVP, Wing, Uncork, and more.

About the role

As a Learning and Development Program Specialist, you will play a key role in designing, building, and continuously improving modern learning programs at Human Interest. You’ll turn business needs into well-crafted learning experiences, combining instructional design with storytelling to create resources, processes, and experiences that shape careers and drive our high-performance culture. This is a build-focused role: you’ll own the design and development of our content, while subject matter experts, managers, and People Team partners deliver live sessions using the materials you create.

We are looking for someone who is tech-forward—who actively leverages modern AI tools to streamline content creation, elevate slide presentations, and scale enablement across the entire employee lifecycle.
