HEO is the world’s first commercial non-Earth imaging (NEI) and insights services company. NEI involves capturing resolved imagery of space objects using cameras mounted on other satellites, and deriving information and intelligence from the captured imagery. Our technology helps governments and commercial companies to visually monitor their spacecraft and other space objects they care about. Our vision is to image anything in the solar system on-demand.

We are building out a high performing interdisciplinary team capable of pushing the boundaries of space technology. We are growing fast and looking for talented, passionate people that value collaboration, growth and learning to join our team.
HEO is a post Series-A company backed by high profile venture funds including Airtree, Y Combinator and In-Q-Tel. We are headquartered in Sydney with offices in London, Tokyo, UK and Washington DC.. This means we are a multinational and multicultural team, working across timezones, languages and disciplines to deliver a category definition product in a rapidly emerging space market.
We value good space citizenship. We are passionate about responsible custodianship, sustainability and trust. We believe that space should be easy and transparent. Our values help us to tackle some of the most complex issues in space for the benefit of all of humanity. HEO is committed to diversity, equity and inclusion across our workforce.
We are hiring a Senior HR Manager to build the people systems and culture that will shape HEO as we grow. This is a foundational role: you will design and deliver our HR infrastructure from the ground up, with a focus on three core areas: culture, people experience and compliance.
We are a fast paced, high growth startup, and we are looking for someone who has done this before. You know what HR looks like at 20 people versus 100+, and you know how to build light-touch systems that scale without adding unnecessary bureaucracy. A proven track record in venture-backed or hyper-scaling environments is essential.
Priorities shift quickly here, and clarity isn't always handed to you. You'll need to thrive in ambiguity, spot the highest impact actions, and know the difference between what needs to be perfect and what just needs to get done. Adaptable, proactive and comfortable working autonomously, you'll take a hands-on approach to both designing and delivering people systems.
As part of the Operations team, you'll work closely with the COO and founders. This is a challenging role with real ownership and the opportunity to shape a great place to work.
