People Operations

About Us

Epia Neuro is a neural technology company developing intent-driven systems designed to restore function and independence for people living with neurological conditions. Its platform integrates implantable neural interfaces, adaptive algorithms, and assistive devices to translate neural intent into real-world action. The company’s initial focus is stroke-related motor impairment, with expansion in cognitive decline and other neurological disorders, focusing on long-term solutions for the growing aging population.

How We Work

• We are intentional. We prioritize and are thoughtful about how we use others’ time.
• We care for others. We prioritize safety both for patients and one another.
• We own outcomes, not just tasks. Our work demands the highest standards because it impacts real patients and real lives.
• Humility is a strength. We are honest about what we know and what we don’t know. Getting it right matters more than being right.

The Role

We're looking for someone to join our People team onsite, five days a week, at our Alameda office. This is a great opportunity to work across a range of different areas, including recruiting, employer branding, vendor management, and day to day HR operations, while reporting directly to our COO. We're looking for someone who's highly organized, comfortable moving between different types of work in the same day, and excited to build a long-term career in HR.

Who Thrives in This Role

• You want breadth over specialization, and are able to seamlessly context switch between a hiring push, an office fire drill, and next week's team event, sometimes all in the same day.
• You see gaps and fill them, rather than waiting for a title or process to tell you it's your job.
• You care about the people experience, whether that's a great first day for a new hire or a team event that actually lands well.
• You enjoy tinkering with People and productivity software to help the team move efficiently.
