Summer 2027 Internship - Content Design

Salesforce • Seattle, WA

1d • $42 - $48 • Onsite

About The Position

This is a Summer 2027 Content Design Internship role where the intern will join a real product team in San Francisco and work closely with content designers, UX designers, researchers, product managers, and engineers on live features. The intern will use AI tools and build skills to craft in-app experiences and content, working iteratively and early in the product development process, balancing user needs, technical constraints, and business goals. Past interns have contributed to onboarding flows, walkthroughs, modals, and payment experiences used by real customers.

Requirements

• Currently pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's from a North American school with a degree in communications, product design, UI/UX design, human-computer interaction, cognitive science, user research, or a related field, and returning to school after the internship.
• An online portfolio of user experience design work that demonstrates storytelling, UX writing ability, and user-focused design thinking.
• Genuine curiosity about how words and design decisions shape user experience and accessibility.
• Comfort giving and receiving feedback, and adapting to shifting priorities and deadlines.
• Strong collaborator who enjoys talking to PMs, engineers, designers, researchers, and technical writers across the org.
• Ability to effectively guide AI tools to achieve desired outcomes

Nice To Haves

• Basic familiarity with Figma or similar design tools is a plus, but not required — we'll help you build this skill.
• Experience using large language model (LLM) coding assistants and agentic tools is a plus
• Experience using Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, Gemini or other agent-based frameworks is a plus

Responsibilities

• Apply standard content design methods — audits, journey mapping, competitive research — to real features.
• Use the latest AI tools and best practices to efficiently craft content and user flows.
• Write clear, concise, and usable in-product copy for onboarding flows, modals, notifications, and other UI surfaces.
• Partner with a mentor and cross-functional team (design, research, PM, engineering) to ideate, prototype, and iterate on solutions.
• Participate in user research and usability testing, and help translate findings into design decisions.
• Conduct competitive analysis and bring an outside perspective on UX patterns.
• Learn and apply Salesforce's brand voice and tone standards, and design system guidelines.
• Work hands-on with Claude, OpenCode, GitHub, Figma and the team's design system components to design, build, and augment working prototypes.
• Present work in team critiques and incorporate feedback using a structured model (e.g., Situation-Behavior-Impact).
• Participate in Content Design reviews and crits as a reviewer, sharing your feedback and opinions on others' designs. Be a vocal advocate for our customers.
• Explore how AI tools (e.g., Slackbot, Figma AI features) are shaping content design workflows.
