About Lyka: Lyka was founded in 2018 by  Anna Podolsky , inspired by her dog,  Lyka , who was suffering from chronic health issues despite being on “premium” kibble. Together with  Gabriel Guedes  (COO) and  Dr. Matthew Muir  (Integrative Veterinarian), they built Lyka from the ground up with one core belief:  better food can radically improve a pet’s healthspan and quality of life . Lyka’s meals are  vet-formulated and gently cooked from real food ingredients . Delivered via a flexible subscription model, Lyka meals have driven remarkable improvements for tens of thousands of customers, supporting gut health, reducing intolerances, improving energy and mobility, and even promoting hair growth. What began as home-cooked meals has since scaled into one of  Australia’s fastest-growing consumer companies , a vertically integrated, tech-enabled brand that is transforming pet health nationwide. Lyka now operates from two offices,  Sydney (HQ) and Melbourne , with three state-of-the-art food production facilities (two in Sydney, one in Melbourne) and a growing national footprint. At Lyka, we’re not just selling pet food, we’re pioneering a new standard of wellness for pets. With strong product-market fit, deep customer love, and a track record of rapid growth, we’re now entering our most ambitious chapter yet: building a generational brand and category-defining business with global impact. About the role: Lyka is on a mission to transform the health of dogs everywhere, and behind every great mission is a great team, at Lyka, we call it the Pack. We're looking for a People Systems & Operations Specialist to be the beating heart of that experience: the person who makes sure every process, every system and every interaction feels as considered as the food we make. This is a role for someone who genuinely loves the mechanics of great People Operations. You'll be the first point of contact for managers and the Pack when they have questions about policy, pay, leave or process, and you'll own the employee lifecycle end-to-end, from the moment someone joins, through every change along the way, to the day they eventually move on. You'll be trusted to know when something needs your judgement and when it needs someone else's, and you'll bring precision to everything you touch. What you will do: You'll become the resident expert on our People systems, Rippling included, and you'll be the person the team turns to when data needs cleaning up, timesheets need sorting, or a system just isn't behaving. Documentation will be your quiet superpower, you'll keep our SOPs and workflows sharp, consistent and easy to follow, so that as we scale, our processes scale with us rather than becoming a bottleneck. Reporting will be a regular rhythm of the role: pulling together accurate, timely People data and knowing how to read it, so you can flag trends and insights before they become problems. You'll partner closely with the People Operations Manager and the wider People team on the cyclical moments that matter most, performance reviews, engagement surveys and the like, bringing the kind of reliability that means nothing falls through the cracks. Beyond the day-to-day, you'll get to sink your teeth into People Ops projects from start to finish, applying real project management chops to initiatives that improve how we work. And because the employee lifecycle touches more than just People, you'll build strong working relationships with Payroll, Finance and Legal to keep everything moving smoothly. Requirements What we are looking for: We're after someone with experience in a People Ops, HR Ops or HRIS-focused role who thrives in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, though we know great skills transfer, so a background in Business Operations or Data & Analytics could be just as strong a fit. Hands-on experience owning and administering an HRIS is essential
