Spring Intern - Recipe & App Content Editor

The Role

We're looking for a Recipe & App Content Editor to help maintain editorial consistency across Helen and our broader recipe library. You'll be the person who makes sure a recipe written in February reads with the same voice, structure, and standards as one written in September, and that every recipe in Helen meets our biological recognition framework.

This is a hands-on editorial role. You'll work directly with the founders and follow a structured reporting process to flag inconsistencies, suggest improvements, and help us scale our content without losing the craft.

What You'll Do

Flag and edit recipes across Helen and our content library for clarity, accuracy, and voice consistency

Standardize formatting, ingredient lists, measurements, instructional language

Cross-check recipes against our Heirloom Diet framework (ancestral whole foods, pre-1920 standards, no industrial seed oils, etc.)

Maintain a style guide and recipe template as our library grows

Use a structured reporting workflow to flag issues and track edits across the team

What We're Looking For

Sharp attention to detail. You notice that when a recipe says ''1 tbsp of egg,'' you can change it to ''1 egg.''

Strong written English and a feel for editorial voice. You can match an established tone, not just impose your own.

Process-oriented. You're comfortable following a reporting workflow and don't need every step re-explained.

Curiosity about food and health. You don't need a nutrition degree, but you should be genuinely interested in how food works.

Self-directed. This is remote and part-time. You'll have clear deliverables and check-ins, but you'll own your hours.

Currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program where you can receive academic credit for this internship.

Logistics

Location: Remote, US-based

Time commitment: Part-time, flexible hours (typically 10-15/week)

Compensation: Unpaid; for academic credit only. We will work with your university to meet credit requirements.

Term: May 26, 2026 - August 14, 2026 (flexible)

What You'll Get

Real editorial ownership of a growing content library

Direct mentorship from founding team members with backgrounds in microbiology, biochemistry, regulatory science, media management, and software engineering

A front-row seat to building a consumer health brand from the ground up
