HR Operations Intern

About Oakland Apps:

Most of what we build is back-office software for property managers, including lease tracking, work orders and tenant payments. We started in 2002 and have grown to about 90 people.

About the role:

Oakland Apps is looking for an HR intern to support onboarding, employee records and internal engagement activities. Fully remote, working with the HR Team. You can work from home anywhere in the US. We have no office requirement. Good written English matters here, since most updates are written.

Responsibilities:

• Answer routine employee questions on leave balance and holidays over Slack
• Assist with performance review cycles by sending forms and chasing pending ones
• Build simple HR dashboards in Excel: headcount, attrition, joining and exit trends
• Track attendance and leave data and flag gaps to managers before the payroll cut-off
• Organise virtual induction sessions and keep the induction deck current
• Coordinate onboarding for new joiners: documents, laptop request, welcome email and first-week schedule
• Run online engagement activities like virtual quizzes, birthday shoutouts and town hall polls
• Draft and update HR policies such as leave, remote work and reimbursement, for review by the HR manager

What we're looking for:

• Available 40 hours a week for the full internship
• Authorized to work in the US. CPT and OPT candidates are welcome to apply
• Good command of MS Excel or Google Sheets: VLOOKUP, filters, basic pivots
• Basic understanding of HR functions from coursework: recruitment, onboarding, payroll, labour law
• Responsive on Slack or email during working hours
• Organised and comfortable with routine documentation work

What you get out of it:

• How onboarding, attendance and payroll inputs connect to each other
• Day-to-day HR generalist work at a real company, not case studies
• Exposure to employee engagement in a fully remote company
• Using an HRMS and building HR reports in Excel

Duration: 4 months

Start date: Feb 2027

Stipend: $22.00 to $27.00 an hour

Perks:

• Return offer opportunities
• Paid company holidays
• Flexible hours
• Learning and development stipend
• Intern events and speaker sessions (virtual)

Applicants must be authorized to work in the U.S.

Duration: 4 months. Start: Feb 2027.
