About the role

This is a hands-on, people-facing internship at the front line of a new product launch. You'll be the person who finds neighbourhood shop owners, reaches out to them, and gets them interested enough to book a short product demo. The project lead runs the demos and handles the rest — your job is to build and work the pipeline that feeds them.

Because most of the shop owners we're approaching speak Mandarin or Chinese dialect, your ability to talk to them comfortably in their own language is the single most important part of this role.

What you'll do

• Build and maintain a pipeline of candidate merchants (minimarts, provision shops, neighbourhood stores) using online directories, maps, and business listings.

• Make outreach calls — mostly in Mandarin / dialect — to shop owners to introduce the pilot, check whether they're a good fit, and book demo appointments.

• Keep the lead tracker up to date: contact details, call outcomes, follow-ups, and status.

• Coordinate and schedule demo and meeting slots for the project lead.

• Send follow-up messages via WhatsApp / WeChat and chase responses.
• Share what owners are telling you so we can sharpen the approach.

Who we're looking for

• Currently pursuing or recently completed a diploma or degree (any discipline; business, marketing, or communications a plus).
• Fluent in Mandarin (required) — you'll be speaking with shop owners directly in Mandarin.
• Conversational in a Chinese dialect — Hokkien, Teochew, or Cantonese — is a strong advantage and the biggest differentiator for this role.
• Comfortable making cold calls and striking up conversations with strangers; friendly, persistent, and not easily discouraged by a "no."
• Organised and reliable with follow-ups and record-keeping.
• Based in Malaysia and able to work remotely, with comfort making calls to Singapore merchants.
• Proficient enough in English for internal coordination.

Nice to have

• Prior sales, telesales, promoter, retail, or other customer-facing experience.
• Comfortable working independently in a remote setup — reliable internet and a quiet space for calls.
• Some familiarity with Singapore's neighbourhood retail scene (minimarts, provision shops) — helpful for building rapport on calls.
• Comfort with WhatsApp / WeChat and simple spreadsheets

About the Role

This is not a typical MBA internship.

You will work directly with the CEO to drive execution across the Rapsodo Device Organization — the team responsible for building Rapsodo’s core products. You will be operating at the center of a global engineering organization, helping ensure priorities are clear, teams are aligned, and critical initiatives move forward without friction.

This role is designed for candidates with an engineering background who want to transition toward technical project or program management, with real exposure to leadership and decision-making.

You will not be observing from the sidelines. You will be expected to contribute to execution from the start.

Strong performance in this role can lead to a full-time Technical Project Manager position within the CEO Office or Rapsodo Device Organization.

What You Will Work On

• Translate priorities into clear, structured execution plans across hardware, firmware, and software teams
• Maintain visibility on progress across critical initiatives and ensure momentum is sustained
• Coordinate across globally distributed teams to align on timelines, dependencies, and deliverables
• Run execution cadences (check-ins, reviews, follow-ups) to drive accountability
• Surface risks, bottlenecks, and misalignment early and help drive resolution
• Provide clear, concise updates to the CEO on progress, issues, and next steps
• Improve visibility and execution through simple, effective tracking and reporting systems
• Apply AI tools to improve visibility, identify patterns and risks early, and enhance the speed and quality of execution

Who Will Thrive in This Role

• An engineering background with a solid understanding of how products are built end-to-end
• Comfort operating across different cultures, time zones, and working styles
• Ability to bring structure to complexity and keep multiple workstreams aligned
• Strong sense of ownership, with consistent follow-through and a focus on closing loops
• Clear and direct communication, particularly when identifying issues or misalignment
• A focus on execution and outcomes rather than analysis alone
• Confidence working closely with leadership and operating in a high-expectation environment
• A mindset that prioritizes early signals over late surprises, with a preference for structured execution over reactive firefighting
• Curiosity about how AI can be applied to improve execution, decision-making, and product outcomes
• A proactive approach to leveraging AI tools to enhance productivity, insight generation, and workflow efficiency

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Electrical & Electronics, Mechanical, Computer Engineering or related fields)
• 3-5 years of hands-on engineering experience
• Currently pursuing or recently completed an MBA
• Ability to operate credibly with engineering teams from day one
• Familiarity with AI/ML concepts and practical experience using AI tools to improve analysis, workflows, or execution
