Do you love turning ideas into smooth, intuitive experiences? As our UX Intern, you’ll help improve how people interact with our websites, apps, and digital tools—making them clearer, easier, and more enjoyable to use.
You’ll move from research and wireframes to testing and iteration, building your portfolio with real projects and learning how thoughtful design decisions translate into a better experience for the students, partners, and communities we serve.
About GlowUp ACS — GlowUp ACS is a New Jersey–based 501(c)(3) nonprofit working to close the “experience paradox”: the catch-22 where entry-level roles require experience that early-career talent hasn’t yet had the chance to build. As an Associate Intern, you’ll contribute to real, meaningful work on live projects. This is an unpaid role, and we follow all applicable U.S. and university guidelines for unpaid internships; documentation to support college credit is available upon request. We value self-starters who communicate openly and thrive in a flexible, collaborative, fully remote environment.
Responsibilities
- Design user-friendly website and app interfaces using tools like Figma, Adobe XD, or similar.
- Improve existing UX flows, site navigation, and user journeys.
- Conduct basic usability testing and turn feedback into actionable improvements.
- Create wireframes, mockups, and low-to-mid fidelity prototypes.
- Collaborate with developers and content leads to align design with implementation.
What You’ll Need
- Some experience with UX/UI tools such as Figma, Adobe XD, or Sketch.
- A portfolio, class project, or sample that shows your design thinking.
- Strong communication skills and a proactive, problem-solving mindset.
- Reliable computer/laptop, stable Wi-Fi, and a webcam/microphone for meetings.
What You’ll Gain
- The official Associate Intern title for your resume and LinkedIn.
- Hands-on experience on real projects you can add to your portfolio.
- Mentorship and feedback, with access to professional development resources as capacity allows.
- Eligibility for optional college credit where your school offers it, with documentation provided on request.
- A reference reflecting your contributions, where earned, and the potential to grow into a Fellowship or title-earning role over time.
- A welcoming, inclusive, mission-driven remote team.
If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you. Come grow with GlowUp ACS!
