SkillBridge Training Program - People Operations Specialist
About the role
About SkillBridge
The DOW SkillBridge program is an opportunity for service members to gain valuable civilian work experience through specific industry training, apprenticeships, or internships during the last 180 days of service (or as DOW determines). DOW SkillBridge connects transitioning service members with industry partners in real-world job experiences.
For service members, DOW SkillBridge provides an invaluable chance to work and learn in civilian, private-sector career areas. For industry partners, DOW SkillBridge is an opportunity to access and leverage the world's most highly trained and motivated workforce at no direct cost. Service members participating in DOW SkillBridge programs continue receiving their military compensation and benefits, while industry partners provide industry exposure, civilian training, and work experience.
Installation and unit commanders who have members about to transition from active duty, bridge the gap between their service members' end of service and the beginning of their civilian careers with the DOW SkillBridge participation. Commanders ease this military-to-civilian transition period for their members when they permit SkillBridge participation with trusted employers.
Service members can be granted up to 180 days of permissive duty to focus solely on training full-time with approved industry partners after their chain of command, field grade commander, provides written authorization and approval. These industry partners offer real-world training and in-demand work experience while having the opportunity to evaluate the service member's suitability for future employment.
Position Overview
Hypori’s People Team is looking for a SkillBridge participant who already has a people operations foundation and is ready to put it to work — fast. This is not an entry-level learning experience; it’s an opportunity to step into a real contributor role, help iterate on existing programs and processes, and make a tangible impact on a small, high-performing team. The participant will work directly with the Head of People in a fully remote environment, supporting day-to-day operations, benefits administration, and people programs with genuine ownership from week one.
