Xiaomi announced today the official launch of its 2027 global campus recruitment, targeting fresh graduates worldwide who will graduate between September 1, 2026 and August 31, 2027. The online application channel will close on December 31 this year. According to official sources, the demand for AI-related positions in this recruitment has increased by 50% compared to last year, reflecting Xiaomi's continued investment in the field of artificial intelligence.

This recruitment opens more than 17 job categories, with product and research positions accounting for as much as 70% of the demand, covering software development, algorithms, hardware development, chips, products, and other directions, while also including non-technical positions such as marketing, functional roles, and supply chain. Work locations cover domestic and overseas cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Nanjing, Wuhan, Xi'an, and Munich, providing graduates with diverse choices.

It is worth noting that Xiaomi showcased several AI products on its official recruitment poster, including Xiaomi MiMo, Xiaomi miclaw, Xiaomi-Robotics-1, and Xiaomi CyberOne. These products reflect Xiaomi's layout in cutting-edge fields such as AI large models and robotics, and also mark the close alignment between its recruitment direction and business strategy.

In fact, Xiaomi has long attached importance to AI. At the spring new product launch event in March this year, Xiaomi founder, chairman, and CEO Lei Jun stated that Xiaomi will actively embrace the AI era and plans to invest 60 billion yuan in AI over the next three years. This substantial investment plan provides strong support for this large-scale recruitment of AI talent and also conveys to the outside world Xiaomi's determination to deeply cultivate artificial intelligence.

Regarding AI technology research and development, Lei Jun previously revealed that behind the MiMo model is Xiaomi's core technical team, the Core Team, with an average age of only 25, and over 60% of its members graduated from Tsinghua University and Peking University. This young team is regarded as an important force for Xiaomi to explore general artificial intelligence (AGI), and Xiaomi will make long-term, high-intensity investments in this field.

Industry analysts believe that Xiaomi's significant increase in AI positions in this campus recruitment is not only to meet business development needs, but also to reserve talent for the intelligent upgrade of its future ecosystem chains such as smart cars and smart homes. As AI technology becomes increasingly integrated into various product lines, the competition for related talent has become key to competition among technology companies.

From a broader perspective, Xiaomi's continued investment in AI is closely related to its car-making business. Lei Jun admitted that making cars is a marathon and that Xiaomi's automobile journey still has a long way to go. In this campus recruitment, algorithm and hardware positions related to intelligent driving and autonomous driving may directly serve the research, development, and implementation of Xiaomi's automobiles.

For the 2027 graduates, this is both an opportunity to enter a leading technology company and a cutting-edge choice to participate in the AI wave. With the approaching application deadline, it is expected to attract a large number of outstanding students to submit resumes. Whether Xiaomi can use this to absorb top talent and achieve breakthroughs in AI and automotive fields deserves continuous industry attention.
