Intern (Data)

About the Role

The HRBP-Data team supports businesses across enterprise applications, AI, algorithms, BytePlus, core technical platforms, and data center and supply chain capabilities. We bring together HR Business Partnership and Talent Acquisition to translate workforce needs into organization and hiring strategies, practical plans, and operating approaches that support growth across teams and regions. We work across highly specialized technical fields where capability needs evolve quickly and competition for talent is strong. This requires us to understand different technologies and talent markets, shape hiring strategies with leaders, and connect recruitment decisions with longer-term priorities for organizational design, leadership, performance, and talent development. By combining HR expertise, market insight, and workforce data, we help teams build the capabilities they need while creating practices that can scale.

You will partner with leaders across the full talent lifecycle, from workforce planning and specialized hiring to talent development, performance, employee relations, and retention. Your work will span hiring strategy, organizational design, manager development, scalable programs, and data-informed decision-making. By staying close to teams as plans are implemented, you will see how hiring and people strategies work together and use those insights to strengthen what comes next.

This is a Program Intern (Conversion-Oriented) role for graduating students who are looking for full-time conversion as the primary objective.
