Hims Taps Amazon Vet to Lead Operations as Company Expands

Hims & Hers Health Inc. is tapping former Amazon.com Inc. executive Nader Kabbani to be chief of operations as the telehealth company expands into new areas like blood testing.

Kabbani led the acquisition of PillPack and the launch of Amazon Pharmacy during his nearly two decades at the e-commerce giant, before leaving in 2023 for stints at startups Flexport Inc. and Symbiotic Inc. He will replace Melissa Baird, who is stepping into an advisory role after more than seven years with Hims. Baird was the company’s 13th employee, joining from web retailers Zulily Inc. and Bonobos Inc., just months after Hims launched in 2017.
