About Dreem Health, by Sunrise
Dreem Health is America’s leading digital sleep clinic. Powered by Sunrise’s technology, Dreem Health makes sleep care simple — replacing long waits and in-lab sleep studies with home-based testing, expert telehealth visits, and personalized treatment plans that are easy for patients to follow. We’re fixing the broken sleep care journey and helping more people get the care they need — from home, on their schedule.
Your Opportunity
Sunrise's HR function is being built from the ground up, in real time, while the company doubles in size. The foundations — job architecture, leveling, reward philosophy — are now taking shape. What's missing is the layer that keeps people engaged, growing, and performing well once they're hired: a consistent way to hear from employees, a real leadership development track for the wave of new managers this growth is creating, a performance management cycle that's more than a form, and an HR tooling landscape that supports the team & the managers instead of adding friction.
This role exists to improve that — to become the person who makes sure engagement data, leadership growth, and performance conversations actually take place within the organisation; the ultimate goal being to enable all employees to thrive, bring their best selves to work and go the extra mile to deliver Sunrise' compelling yet ambitious strategy.
You'll report to the HR Director and work alongside a small, senior HR team (US and EU HR Generalists, TA Principal, TA Specialist, and a Digital Workplace & AI Enablement specialist) split across Belgium and the US. You'll have real latitude to design these four programs largely from scratch, backed by leadership that already sees the gap and wants it closed — and real visibility, since engagement and leadership development outcomes will be reported at EXCOM level.
This is a build role, not a maintain role. If you like inheriting a mature, fully-staffed L&D or engagement function with established vendors and playbooks, this isn't it. If you want to design the playbook for a ~200-to-300-person healthcare scale-up and see your fingerprints on leadership development, people engagement & performance improvement, this role is for you.
What You’ll Do
- Own employee engagement measurement end-to-end — design and run the engagement/pulse survey cadence, benchmark results over time, and turn findings into concrete action plans with managers and EXCOM rather than a one-off report.
- Own Learning & Development, with two clearly flagged priorities:
- Leadership development: co-create Sunrise's leadership ambition hand-in-hand with EXCOM and design/deliver a leadership & manager development curriculum for first-time and existing people managers.
- AI adoption: build the training, habits, and team-level AI champions network that turn Sunrise's AI adoption strategy into everyday employee fluency.
- Own performance management design and delivery — run the end-to-end review cycle (goal-setting, check-ins, calibration), factoring in continuous feedback & employees' empowerment.
- Own the HR tooling landscape and its automation — map the current stack (Lucca, Justworks, Payfit, Greenhouse, Deel IT, Spendesk), identify redundancy or gaps, and drive decisions on what to consolidate, replace, or automate.
- Track and report on the health of these four pillars — build the metrics (engagement scores, manager NPS, review completion, tool adoption) that let the HR Director and EXCOM see progress.
What You Bring
- 5+ years in HR, People Development, or a closely related field, with real ownership of at least two of: employee engagement, leadership/manager development, performance management, or HR systems.
- Direct experience designing and facilitating leadership or manager development programs.
- Genuine tech savviness: comfortable evaluating, selecting, and driving adoption of HR/engagement/performance platforms.
- Solid stakeholder management across all organizational levels.
- Creativity and curiosity — energized by building something from a blank page.
- Comfortable operating in a multi-cultural, multi-entity environment with a profound understanding of the US working culture.
- Excellent written and spoken English.
- Experience building or professionalizing an HR function during a high-growth phase preferred.
- Experience driving AI or technology adoption / digital change management preferred.
Why You'll Love Working Here
- Mission that matters: help fix a healthcare blind spot affecting over a billion people worldwide.
- Real ownership, fast: four meaningful programs largely undefined today, yours to design.
- A seat close to the decisions: work directly with the HR Director and have visibility at EXCOM level.
- Growth of your own: scale alongside a company growing from ~150 to 300+ people.
