Product Design Intern

Tractian designs products that make complex industrial technology easier to use. The Product Design Intern will take a defined user problem from research through interactive prototyping, working with product and engineering partners to test assumptions, refine the experience and prepare implementable designs.

Responsibilities:

• Support interviews or usability studies and translate findings into clear user needs and design priorities
• Create task flows, wireframes and Figma prototypes that explore and communicate potential solutions
• Test and refine interaction details, including accessibility, information hierarchy and error states
• Document design decisions and handoffs, then review implementation with engineers against the intended experience

Requirements:

• Pursuing or recently completed a degree in Product Design, Industrial Design, Interaction Design, HCI or a related discipline
• A portfolio showing your personal contribution, problem-solving process and how research or testing influenced the result
• Proficiency in Figma and interactive prototyping, with strong attention to visual and interaction design
• Ability to explain tradeoffs, collaborate within technical constraints and respond thoughtfully to feedback
• Experience with user research, usability testing, design systems or technical products
• Physical-product and wearable projects are relevant when they demonstrate strong research and considered user interactions
