HR Intern — AI-Native Talent & Organization

SHANGHAI · IN PERSONINTERNSHIP

This role is currently in person in Shanghai. We plan to open a Seattle office soon; outstanding candidates overseas are welcome to get in touch, and relocation support for a move to Shanghai can be discussed.

We believe excellent HR is not a process operator, but a product manager for organizational effectiveness and an early investor in talent. You will work directly with HR leadership and business teams, using AI as a capability multiplier while helping build the team from zero to one.

What You Will Do

  • Technical talent sourcing and mapping: Support hiring for AI, algorithms, computational biology, and other advanced R&D roles; use AI tools to map talent markets and build a high-quality talent pool.

  • End-to-end recruiting: Coordinate interviews, follow up on feedback, assist with offers and pre-boarding, and provide an excellent candidate experience.

  • AI + HR: Use large models to draft hiring content, summarize meetings, improve HR SOPs, and experiment with simple automated recruiting workflows.

  • Culture and employee experience: Help organize paper discussions, technical salons, celebrations, and other activities suited to an AI4S team.

  • People analytics and operations: Support recruiting-funnel and performance data, onboarding, offboarding, and employee records.

Who You Are

  • Currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree or above; 2026/2027 graduates are preferred. STEM, psychology, HR, or business backgrounds are welcome.

  • Available in person in Shanghai at least four days per week for three months or longer.

  • A serious user of AI tools such as ChatGPT, DeepSeek, and Feishu/Lark Base, with practical prompting ability.

  • Independent, critical, and logical; able to learn complex research and business contexts quickly.

  • Empathetic and confident when communicating with highly trained scientists and engineers.

  • Self-directed, resilient, accountable, and comfortable with concurrent priorities.

Bonus Points

  • Previous HR internship at an internet, technology, or AI company.

  • Strong English communication with candidates from international research backgrounds.

  • Ability to create simple recruiting posters or employer-brand content with tools such as Canva or CapCut/Jianying.

  • A genuine and sustained interest in AI for Science.

What You Will Gain

  • Direct exposure to frontier AI4S work and a rigorous standard for identifying scientific and engineering talent.

  • Foundational HR skills shaped by investment thinking and product thinking—not repetitive administrative work.

  • Practical mastery of current AI productivity tools in a real company environment.

  • Competitive internship compensation and a potential full-time offer for exceptional performance.
