We are looking for a Product Design Intern to join our Product Design team here at Quantum Workplace! Product Designers own design throughout the product development lifecycle, from research to rapid prototyping, all the way to detailed interactions and working front-end. They work closely with their empowered squads to find the real job-to-be-done and collaborate on solutions. Successful Product Designers are highly motivated to create elegant and usable experiences, backed by solid research and peer-reviewed work. Product Designers have a hand in every interaction our users make inside our features, which makes them an integral part of how Quantum Workplace empowers every team to thrive.

• Collaborate with the Product Designer on your squad to guide the user experience throughout the product development lifecycle, balancing discovery and delivery.
• Be an advocate for our users. You’ll understand their needs and motivations first, and make sure we’re delivering value to them.
