People & Culture Intern
We are a high-energy, fast-growing technology venture in Munich, and we are looking for a hands-on People & Culture Intern to help us build our internal team engine from scratch. Working directly with our Head of People & Culture, you will have a direct hand in shaping our team, our processes, and our culture during a phase of massive momentum.
Overview
Why this role matters
Our team has more than doubled in size since the start of the year, making the People & Culture function absolutely mission-critical right now. We are building our culture playbooks, tools, and rituals from the ground up, and we need an execution-focused builder to help us scale our operations without losing our high-energy, low-ego spirit. Without this role, we cannot hire the next wave of talent or design the scalable people processes required to support our rapid expansion.
Responsibilities
What you'll do
You will own the end-to-end support of our team member lifecycle and the optimization of our daily workplace culture. Specifically, you will:
- Drive active sourcing and candidate screening across all open positions to keep our recruiting pipeline humming in Personio.
- Coordinate interview loops and candidate communications to deliver a fast, respectful, and highly professional candidate experience.
- Design and execute core people processes including seamless onboarding programs for new joiners, performance management cycles, and offboarding.
- Automate manual HR tasks by leveraging AI tools and optimizing our HR information systems and Personio database.
- Organize team rituals and office events that protect our collaborative onsite culture and keep our Munich office an inspiring place to work.
- Develop employer branding initiatives and create compelling content to represent us at talent events.
Candidate profile
Who this is a fit for
- Action-oriented operator who thrives in a fast-paced environment with a "no task too small" mindset.
- Sharp evaluator of talent who reads rooms well, communicates with warmth, and exercises impeccable discretion.
- AI-native and tool-fluent user who actively integrates automation tools into daily workflows to work smarter.
- Onsite champion in Munich who is excited to collaborate in-person daily at our Stiglmaierplatz office.
- Fluent English speaker with a completed or in-progress university degree in any field.
Culture
What it's like to work here
We have a high-energy, collaborative, ambitious, and hands-on culture with low ego and zero hand-holding. We operate under an onsite-first model in Munich, where we prioritize "done over perfect" and value "no task too small" operators. We move fast, have fun, and treat each other well.
What you get
The offer
- Direct mentorship working hand-in-hand with our Head of People & Culture, learning how to build an HR function from scratch.
- True ownership and autonomy to implement your own ideas, test new AI integrations, and design team rituals.
- High-energy, onsite-first team culture based in a vibrant Munich office where we prioritize speed, execution, and having fun together.
- Steep learning curve with exposure to the entire employee lifecycle in a highly ambitious company environment.

A quick note
This probably isn't for you if:
- You need step-by-step hand-holding. We operate with high autonomy, value a "done over perfect" approach, and expect you to drive tasks independently.
- You prefer a fully remote or highly hybrid setup. Our culture is built on being onsite-first at our Munich office to foster close collaboration.
- You consider certain tasks beneath you. We have a zero-ego culture where everyone helps set up events, write job descriptions, and chase contract signatures.
