Product Designer Internship
Who We Are:
Pathloom, a pre-seed technology startup in the outdoor recreation space, is looking for an intern to assist in our mission to get more people outdoors more often. We are utilizing our unique platform to simplify the outdoors discovery and planning process, and we’re looking for talented, proactive students with an interest in entrepreneurship and a passion for the outdoors to help us succeed in our mission! We’re building the world’s first all-in-one backpacking app, and we want your help!
Who You Are:
We are seeking a self-motivated, organized, detail-oriented Media Arts, Digital Media, or Psychology student to engage in an exciting and challenging UI/UX Product Design Internship for the Fall, Winter, and Spring Semesters!
Our ideal candidate for this position is a Junior, Senior, or Grad Student who is responsible and disciplined enough to flourish while working 100% remotely for 10-15 hours per week over a 12 week period. We’re looking for someone with experience in Figma, Product Design, and Notion; with strong documentation and communication skills and the ability to work well with others on a close-knit team. Learning quickly and keeping a positive attitude are also very important for this role!
Bonus points for experience with Vector graphics, Storytelling, Consumer behavior/research, UI/UX experience or certification! Also, if you’ve worked with startups or have experience working with engineers and product managers in the past please let us know as that will be extremely useful in this role as well!
What You’ll Do:
This internship provides an opportunity to gain invaluable real-world experience working alongside the engineering and product team in a fast-paced, gritty, early-stage startup, helping to improve users’ outdoor travel planning experience with the Pathloom application. You’ll work with the software and product teams to create or modify UI/UX designs for the mobile app.
This is an unpaid internship, but we’ll be happy to work with you and your institution to secure credit for your efforts, and we promise you’ll enjoy working with (and gain real value from!) our veteran team of technology experts and dedicated outdoor enthusiasts!
If you’re interested in experiencing the startup world first-hand through Beta and beyond, and appreciate heading into the Great Outdoors whenever possible, we’d love to hear from you!
