• Create wireframes, mockups, and prototypes using tools like Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, Mural, and emerging AI-assisted design tools
• Explore and help integrate AI-driven experiences into product designs
• Participate in design critiques, team meetings, and feedback sessions to continuously improve design outcomes
• Support senior designers with research, analysis, and design documentation

What You Bring

• Solid understanding of UX and human-centered design methodologies, including the Double Diamond
• Experience designing for native mobile platforms (iOS and/or Android)
• Proficiency with Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, and Mural, plus strong sketching skills
• Exposure to user research methods and an interest in data-informed design
• A forward-thinking mindset with enthusiasm for AI in design
• Strong communication, collaboration, and critical-thinking skills
• A portfolio demonstrating user-centered UX and UI work
• (School or academic projects are welcome)

Bonus Points

• Graphic design or animation experience, especially for social media or marketing content

Why Join Us?
