Head of Operations Management (m/w/d)

Leveraging over a decade of innovation, we have engineered a novel neural interface using microscale, flexible, bioelectronic fibers that can be delivered into the body through minimally invasive endovascular approaches. By making neural interfacing a minimally invasive procedure, we aim to revolutionize deep brain stimulation and broaden access to life‑changing neuromodulation therapies to millions of patients.

NeuroBionics is hiring an Operations Manager to be the operational backbone of our growing team. As our first dedicated operations hire, you'll own the operational core: HR, payroll, benefits, onboarding, procurement, accounts payable, and vendor relationships. You'll support our lab facilities and safety and help plan the space we grow into. You’ll serve as the internal hub connecting our bookkeeper, fractional CFO, and HR advisor. This is a hands‑on, generalist role for someone who likes being involved across the whole company, operates with real autonomy, and takes pride in building order in a fast‑moving environment.

People operations: Run payroll, onboarding, and benefits administration; draft and implement HR policies (with support from our HR advisor); Finance operations: Own procurement, accounts payable, vendor management and contracts, capital and long‑lead equipment purchasing (POs, lead times, capex), and transaction coding; Quality support: Support our Quality team on the operational side of the quality system (training records, controlled purchasing, calibration scheduling), without owning the QMS.

Vendor & facilities coordination: Manage vendor and contract relationships and coordinate lab‑space and facilities needs (with support), keeping the team's environment running smoothly.

5 years of operations experience, ideally in a startup or small‑company environment.

Hands‑on with the operational core: payroll and HR administration, and/or finance operations (AP, procurement, transaction coding, vendor management).

Track record of building or standing up processes and systems, not just running mature ones.
