At Intelic, we build advanced software for unmanned systems in the defense sector. Based in Amsterdam — with a second office in Kyiv — we are a fast-growing team of engineers and domain experts developing Nexus — an intelligence platform that gives unmanned systems the speed, coordination, and reliability that critical missions demand.

Why this role exists

The People foundation at Intelic is in place — now it's time to take it to the next level. As our People Ops Specialist, you're the person who makes that happen in practice. You'll be joining a small but driven People team, keeping the day-to-day running smoothly, ensuring employees know where to go with their questions, and continuously looking for ways to make our processes sharper and more scalable.

What success looks like in your first year

• Continue to built on a clean, reliable HR admin foundation — contracts, processes, and our internal knowledge base all in order and easy to navigate

• Run your first onboarding sessions and made new joiners feel genuinely welcomed from day one

• Identified and implemented at least one meaningful automation or workflow improvement that saves the team real time

What you will own

• Own the HR lifecycle day-to-day: drafting contracts and addendums, managing HR tickets, and keeping our internal HRIS (buddee) accurate and up to date

• Host monthly onboarding sessions for new joiners, making sure everyone feels welcomed and set up for success from day one

• Be one of the faces of HR in the Amsterdam office — the go-to person for employees with questions on policy, benefits, and local regulations

• Support the Ukrainian team with HR queries, making sure they receive the same quality of guidance and feel just as connected to Intelic's processes and culture

• Act as our internal expert on HR tools and systems, proactively experimenting with AI and automation to streamline workflows

• Continuously look for a better way — whether that's redesigning a process or eliminating a manual task, you have the autonomy to make it happen

• Work closely with the Head of People on people projects, compliance, and anything else that needs an extra pair of precise hands

You will thrive here if

• You have experience in People Ops, preferably in a fast-growing or international organisation

• You are fluent in both Dutch (C1 or higher) and English — this is a must

• You are genuinely excited about HR tech and AI, and you don't wait to be asked before experimenting with a better solution

• You have hands-on experience with HRIS tooling and enjoy finding ways to improve how things work

• You are energetic, empathetic, and proactive — you like being visible and accessible in an office environment

• You have a sharp eye for detail and feel at home in the operational, compliance-heavy side of HR

Why join Intelic

• Real ownership. You're not just executing tasks — you're helping shape how our People function works

• Growth stage momentum. Join at a moment where your ideas actually get implemented
