Job Description
The UI/UX Design Intern will work directly with the founding team to translate product features into usable, field-tested interface designs. Your work will be used by engineers in mechanical rooms, on tablets, in the field. You will own design from concept to handoff: user flows, wireframes, high-fidelity mockups, and interactive prototypes. You'll partner closely with the CPO and engineering to ensure every screen solves a real user problem.
Key Responsibilities
- Translate product feature briefs into wireframes, user flows, and high-fidelity mockups
- Design and iterate on core platform workflows for web and mobile (tablet-first)
- Contribute to the Magellan CX design system — components, tokens, patterns
- Build and deliver interactive HTML/Figma prototypes for stakeholder and user feedback
- Conduct lightweight usability reviews and translate findings into design improvements
- Collaborate with engineering to ensure design intent survives implementation
Qualifications
- Required:
- Portfolio demonstrating UI/UX work — web apps, mobile apps, or dashboards (student projects and side projects welcome)
- Strong grasp of layout, visual hierarchy, and interaction design fundamentals
- Comfortable working from a product brief and turning ambiguity into concrete designs
- Proficiency in Figma (components, auto layout, prototyping)
- Enrolled in a design, HCI, CS, or related degree program
- Preferred:
- Experience designing data-heavy or workflow-intensive applications (not just consumer UI)
- Familiarity with design systems and token-based design
- Any exposure to construction, industrial, or field-service software (rare, but we'll notice)
- Basic HTML/CSS — enough to understand what you're handing off
Prerequisites for Employment
- Successful background check, including pre-employment drug screening
- US citizens, permanent residents or any candidate with eligibility to work in the US
