Product Design Intern - Remote

The product is a mobile app plus a React web dashboard, with a Python and PostgreSQL backend on AWS.

ABOUT THE ROLE

This is a product design role, which means user flows, edge cases and empty states, not just nice-looking screens. Our headquarters is in Bristol, and about a third of the team works remotely from other countries. You will intern remotely with our team in Bristol. We have hosted remote interns from several countries before. Working hours overlap with UK business hours. Equipment is provided, including a laptop.

DAY TO DAY

Make interactive prototypes so the team can click through a flow before it is built. Create wireframes, user flows and high-fidelity screens in Figma. Collect competitor screenshots and annotate patterns worth borrowing. Run remote usability tests over Zoom or Google Meet and summarise what users struggled with. Sketch rough ideas quickly in FigJam before moving to detailed screens. Design empty states, error messages and loading screens that are often missed. Check designs for accessibility, including contrast, font sizes and tap targets.

WHO CAN APPLY

Authorized to work in the US. CPT and OPT candidates are welcome to apply. Based in the US for the duration of the internship. Available 40 hours a week for the full internship. Good working knowledge of Figma, including auto layout and components. Understanding of basic UX principles: hierarchy, consistency, feedback and accessibility. Laptop that runs Figma smoothly and a stable internet connection. Pursuing a degree or diploma in Design, HCI, Computer Science or a related field, graduating in 2026 or 2027. Available for 25 to 40 hours a week. Able to explain your design decisions in writing.

WHAT YOU GET OUT OF IT

Working inside a real design system instead of starting from scratch. Running usability tests and turning messy feedback into clear changes. You will see your designs built and released to real users. Certificate and recommendation letter, plus a full-time interview if things go well.
