"Career Bonus": From regular operations in multiple provinces in China to winning the bid for the Singapore official project, Mogu AutoLink's autonomous driving technology has been applied in both domestic and international markets. How did this differentiated development path come into being? What are the core competitiveness reflected in?
Mogu AutoLink : Our development path stems from our judgment of the industry trend - AI is moving from the virtual world to the physical world. This understanding has driven us to establish the dual - engine strategy of "AI network + autonomous driving", which is also an important foundation for our core competitiveness.
Our advantages are mainly concentrated in three aspects:
Firstly, the differentiated advantage at the technical level. The self - developed MogoMind large model is positioned as a multi - modal model that deeply understands the physical world. Aiming at the pain points of traditional AI lacking real - time perception ability of the physical world and a global cognitive system, through the closed - loop system of "global data fusion - global intelligent decision - making - continuous dynamic evolution", it enables intelligent agents to perceive, understand, and respond to changes in the physical world in real - time;
Secondly, the experience of scenario implementation. The company has implemented urban - level AI networks in multiple cities across the country. The cumulative safe driving mileage of MOGOBUS has exceeded 2 million kilometers, serving more than 200,000 passengers. At the same time, it has provided shuttle services at international events such as the United Nations Global Conference of Environmental Scientists, the 31st FISU World University Games, and the F1 Chinese Grand Prix;
Thirdly, the experience of global project verification. The Singapore project was won after competing with many global companies. It passed the technical and safety assessments of the local Land Transport Authority, achieving the overall output of "technology + operation + ecosystem", which lays the foundation for subsequent global market expansion.
"Career Bonus": This autumn recruitment is an important part of the company's strategic layout. Can you introduce in detail the requirements for core positions? What are the focuses in talent selection for campus recruitment and social recruitment?
Mogu AutoLink : The positions in this autumn recruitment are set around the company's strategic goal of "technological deep - diving + ecological expansion". The R & D of technology products is the core direction. Positions such as AI algorithm R & D, large - model deployment, perception fusion, and simulation system R & D will serve the iteration of the MogoMind large model and the optimization of autonomous driving technology; the AI product position needs to connect technology and the market, transforming core capabilities into implementable product solutions.
At the same time, we are also recruiting talents for positions in strategic analysis, marketing, human resources, and finance. Since the commercial implementation of autonomous driving requires cross - domain collaboration, we need composite talents who understand both technology and business to bridge the gap between technology and scenario implementation.
For campus recruitment, we are targeting fresh graduates who will graduate from November 2025 to October 2026, and positions are available in Beijing and Shanghai. The professional fields are diverse, and we focus on candidates' technical sensitivity, logical thinking ability, and innovation potential.
Social recruitment values practical project experience and problem - solving ability more. With the development of the company's business, a flexible recruitment mechanism will be adopted. Exceptionally outstanding candidates in campus recruitment may also be recruited beyond the target positions.
Whether it is campus recruitment or social recruitment, we hope that candidates are passionate about the AI and autonomous driving fields and are willing to grow with the company.
"Career Bonus": In terms of employees' career development, how does the company ensure that individual goals are consistent with the company's strategic goals? What is the promotion mechanism like?
Mogu AutoLink : We achieve the alignment of individual and company goals through the objective management system of "OKR linkage". Employees' goals will be bound to the OKRs of the department and the company, and will be reviewed and adjusted quarterly. Continuous communication and feedback are maintained during the process to ensure the same direction.
In the promotion mechanism, the "dual - channel" development path corresponds to a clear rank system: the professional channel is the L series, and the management channel is the M series.
Campus recruits usually start from the L series after joining the company. Through the improvement of professional skills and on - the - job experience, they have the opportunity to participate in the professional rank promotion review every year. As long as they have excellent performance and meet the requirements, they can get rank promotions and corresponding salary adjustments even without switching to management positions.
For employees who undertake complex work and have management potential, they can enter the management channel through the M series, obtaining more business permissions, management authorizations, and resource support to lead the team to achieve goals. This mechanism not only guarantees the development space for technical experts but also provides a growth path for management talents.

"Career Bonus": Can you share the corporate culture and internal atmosphere of Mogu AutoLink? What support measures does the company have in terms of work - life balance?
Mogu AutoLink : The core of our corporate culture is "innovation, collaboration, and pragmatism", which permeates our daily work.
For managers, we have four management principles : "No excuses", "Keep your promises", "First - inquiry responsibility system", and "All problems are the manager's problems", ensuring the efficient implementation of management decisions.
For employees, honor evaluations are conducted every six months to motivate individuals and teams that have made outstanding contributions in technological innovation, business development, and win - win cooperation. In performance evaluations and rank promotions, the evaluation of culture and values will account for a certain proportion.
In terms of the internal atmosphere, among the company's employees, R & D engineers account for a relatively high proportion, with an average age of about 28. They are mainly AI experts, algorithm engineers, automotive engineers, and data scientists, and the interpersonal relationships are relatively simple and clear.
The organizational structure emphasizes project orientation, breaking down departmental barriers to facilitate cross - departmental cooperation. The company also provides team - building funds to support teams in organizing various activities to enhance cohesion.
In terms of work - life balance, we advocate the concept of "Happy work, healthy life". In terms of benefits, in addition to the legal annual leave, there are additional welfare annual leave and full - pay sick leave. Basic benefits such as six types of insurance and one fund, welfare dinners, taxi reimbursement, and annual physical examinations are complete.
To meet family needs, a "family care package" is provided, including supplementary medical insurance for parents and children and flexible parental leave; corresponding gifts are also provided during festivals such as the Spring Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival, and the Mid - Autumn Festival. In addition, colleagues have spontaneously organized interest communities such as board games, badminton, hiking, and KTV to enrich their off - work lives.
"Career Bonus": Currently, the autonomous driving industry is at a critical stage of technological breakthrough and commercial implementation. How do you view the development trend of the industry?
Mogu AutoLink : The industry is currently undergoing three major trend changes.
Firstly, the technological core is shifting from "rule - driven" to "cognition - driven". The new - generation AI technology represented by end - to - end large models enables autonomous driving systems to have the ability to understand and generalize complex and unknown scenarios;
Secondly, the competition mode is shifting from "going it alone" to ecological collaboration. The boundaries between automobile manufacturers, technology companies, and parts suppliers are gradually blurring, and in - depth collaboration has become an industry consensus;
Thirdly, the application scenarios are expanding from closed to open, extending from initial parks and ports to scenic areas, open roads, and then to multiple fields such as public transportation, logistics, and sanitation.
"Career Bonus": How does the company analyze the current difficulties and opportunities in the industry?
Mogu AutoLink : We believe that the current development of AI faces two major bottlenecks: one is the lack of real - time physical - world perception ability; the other is the lack of a global AI cognitive system.
Our coping strategies are as follows:
① Incorporate real - time physical - world data into model training to break through the limitation of traditional models relying on static Internet data.
② Drive AI from "single - point intelligence" to "global intelligence" through global perception, in - depth cognition, and real - time reasoning and decision - making abilities.
"Career Bonus": For job seekers who are interested in joining Mogu AutoLink, what qualities of candidates does the company value most?
Mogu AutoLink : Passion for the industry is the most important. Only those who truly love the AI and autonomous driving fields can maintain the motivation to learn in this rapidly changing industry; problem - solving ability is also crucial. Whether it is a technical position or a non - technical position, candidates need to be able to identify and solve problems in actual work. Relevant project experience can be highlighted in resumes and interviews.
Finally, we hope that candidates can continue to learn. Since the AI and autonomous driving technologies are updated and iterated rapidly, we need "lifelong learners" to adapt to the development rhythm of the company and the industry.
"Career Bonus": In addition, do you have any targeted job - hunting suggestions?
Mogu AutoLink : We believe that if you want to successfully get an offer, you need to at least do the following:
Firstly, deeply understand the cutting - edge technologies in the industry and the company's business, such as the core features of the MogoMind large model and the application scenarios of MOGOBUS, to make your job - hunting direction more precise;
Secondly, highlight your core competitiveness. Technical positions can emphasize technical accumulation and project results, while non - technical positions can demonstrate business thinking and cross - domain collaboration ability;
Finally, you also need to identify with the company's culture and values. We hope that every employee who joins can "innovate, collaborate, and be pragmatic" with the team to jointly promote the implementation of technology.
"Career Bonus": Finally, can you summarize Mogu AutoLink's uniqueness and the company's development vision in a few sentences?
Mogu AutoLink : The uniqueness of Mogu AutoLink lies in that we are not just developing a technology or a product, but building an AI nervous system that connects all intelligent agents and the world. We hope to reconstruct the underlying logic of cities, transportation, travel, and services, and let AI truly integrate into every moment of life.
Our vision is to become a globally leading intelligent service provider for the physical world through the dual - engine of "AI network + autonomous driving".
