People & Culture Associate
About Connex AI: Connex AI is an AI-driven technology company building intelligent solutions across healthcare, workforce optimization, and beyond. We develop platforms that help organizations operate faster, smarter, and more efficiently.
Role Overview: We're looking for a motivated People & Culture (P&C) professional to join our team and help shape the employee experience at a fast-growing, early-stage company. In this role, you'll support the full spectrum of HR functions while gaining exposure to what it takes to build people operations from the ground up in a startup environment. This is a great opportunity for someone eager to grow their HR expertise, work closely with leadership, and make a real impact on company culture as we scale. This is currently an unpaid opportunity.
What You'll Do
- Calling and screening candidates for all technical and non-technical roles
- Own hiring and onboarding processes from start to finish, refining them as we grow
- Drive employee engagement and culture initiatives from the ground up
- Build and maintain P&C documentation and compliance systems
- Research P&C best practices and bring recommendations directly to leadership
- Partner with leadership on people-first strategy as a true collaborator, not just support staff
- Build and maintain P&C documentation and compliance systems, including supporting international hires with visa/work authorization processes (CPT, OPT, etc.)
What We're Looking For
- Current student or recent graduate in HR, Business, Psychology, or related field
- Strong communication and organizational skills
- You're energized by figuring things out, not paralyzed by it
- Genuine interest in Human Resources, Human Capital, and workplace culture
- Able to work independently in a remote, fast-moving environment
- Familiarity with U.S. work authorization processes (CPT, OPT, visa sponsorship basics) is a plus
What You'll Gain
- Hands-on HR & People Operations experience at a startup, built from scratch, not handed to you
- Exposure to global HR practices
- Direct visibility into leadership decision making
- Flexible remote work and mentorship
