About Omnidian

Omnidian, Inc. is a fast-growing Series C tech-enabled service company revolutionizing performance assurance for the distributed solar and energy storage industries.  Omnidian is building a more sustainable future for the planet through our passionate teams, our innovative technology, and by creating an amazing customer experience.

We are headquartered in the US and began our Australia team in 2022, with exciting growth since then. In 2025, Omnidian acquired Solar Service Guys, Australia’s largest dedicated solar service network, delivering industry-leading support across the full lifecycle of solar PV systems for over 17 years. Headquartered in Brisbane, SSG is known for its nationwide reach and expertise in design, monitoring, maintenance, and repair of solar systems for residential and commercial clients.

Omnidian’s AI-powered performance assurance platform supports over 380,000 asset years of data and now extends its reach into the Australian market—further enhancing service capabilities through this strategic partnership. Together, we’re delivering cutting-edge support and unmatched customer experience to solar investors across the globe.



The Job

We’re looking for a People Operations Manager to serve as the key People partner to our Australia-based team while collaborating closely with our global People & Culture function. You’ll support leaders and team members through periods of growth and change, help shape and implement our local People systems, and build a strong, people-first foundation that reflects both Australian requirements and Omnidian’s values. This is a hands-on and strategic role, ideal for someone who can move fluidly between advising, designing, and doing.

We strongly believe that diversity of experience, perspectives, and background will lead to a better environment for our employees and a better product for our customers. We are committed to the principle of equal employment opportunity for all employees and to providing employees with a work environment free of discrimination and harassment. We value diversity and inclusion and are committed to ensuring our hiring and retention practices, as well as our office culture, reflects this value.
 
We will ensure that individuals with disabilities are provided reasonable accommodation to participate in the job application or interview process, to perform essential job functions, and to receive other benefits and privileges of employment. Please contact us to request accommodation.

We invite you to be part of our mission to create a workplace that is inclusive and welcoming to all.
