Job description

Dyania Health exists to make sure no patient misses out on care they need simply because the evidence was buried in their medical records. A person's health story is scattered across years of visits, notes, and test results - and today, finding the patients who need an intervention means clinicians reading charts by hand, one of the most time-consuming processes in medicine. We built Synapsis AI, our dual-patented clinical reasoning system, to read that full story the way a physician would.

The impact is real and measured: what takes a clinician 30 minutes to 2 hours takes Synapsis AI under half a second, and in peer-reviewed studies at Cleveland Clinic it was more accurate than physician reviewers. Health systems use it first to find patients who need care now, and also to connect patients with clinical trials and accelerate medical research - all while patient data stays securely inside the hospital's own walls.

We're a Series B company scaling across major healthcare system and pharma partners, with a team unlike most startups: one-third clinicians and one-fourth published AI researchers, working side by side. The science is validated. The partners are signed and continuing to sign. What we're building now is the company - and that's where you come in.

The Role: People Operations Manager (Athens, Greece)

We're hiring a People Operations Manager to be the on-the-ground People presence for our growing team in Athens, reporting to our US-based People Director. While the Director designs Dyania's People strategy globally, you'll bring it to life in Greece - running recruiting coordination, onboarding, HR operations, and culture for our Athens office, and serving as the trusted first point of contact for every teammate there. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role in a company where the People function builds the organization rather than just administering it - and as our Greek team grows, so does the scope of this role.

What you'll own in year one

• Recruiting coordination and candidate experience - run the hiring engine for our Greece roles: manage pipelines and scheduling, coordinate our structured interview process with hiring managers, and make every candidate interaction reflect who we are.
• Onboarding and training - deliver the onboarding experience for new hires in Athens, adapting global materials locally so every new Dyanian is productive and connected from week one.
• Greek HR operations and compliance - own day-to-day HR administration for Greece: employment contracts and documents, payroll coordination with our local provider, Greek labor law compliance, offboarding, and the operational backbone of the office (employee equipment, tools and subscriptions, systems access).
• Policies and employee lifecycle - localize company policies and the employee handbook for Greece, and keep employee records and our HRIS accurate and current.
• Employee engagement and culture - build connective culture practices for the Athens office and across our distributed US-Greece team: local events and rituals, pulse-survey follow-through, and feedback loops that make sure every voice is heard.
• Performance and goals support - support the global rollout of our goal-setting and performance review cycles in Greece, helping managers and teammates get the most out of both.
• 3-6 years of HR / People operations experience, with hands-on ownership of core processes - recruiting coordination, onboarding, payroll, or HR administration.
• Working knowledge of Greek employment law and payroll practice - contracts, statutory requirements, and coordination with payroll providers.
• A hands-on executor who owns work end to end without close supervision - you take a goal, build the process, and run it, sweating the details along the way.
• High discretion and judgment with confidential and sensitive employee matters.
• Fluent English and Greek - you’ll work daily with US-based leadership and Greek teammates, authorities, and providers.

What sets you apart

• Startup or scale-up experience - you’ve worked in a fast-growing technology company where processes were being built, not inherited.
• Cross-border exposure - you’ve supported a distributed or international team, and are familiar with GDPR as it applies to employee data.
• Systems fluency - you’ve worked with (or helped implement) HRIS, ATS, or payroll platforms.
• Recruiting depth - you’ve gone beyond coordination to sourcing, screening, or closing candidates.

Who is a Dyanian?

• Leads with empathy for our patients, teammates, partners, and clients
• Has an insatiable curiosity for learning new concepts and intellectual growth
• Has self-awareness in knowing what they know and what they don't know
• Maintains humility in recognizing that perfection does not exist, welcoming growth that comes from being wrong
• Has a magnetic attraction towards cross-disciplinary teams with diversity of thought, perspective, skill set, working style, knowledge, and interests who have a passion for solving challenging problems
• Maintains a flexible and adaptive attitude towards solving problems
