Job Description

About OnePay

OnePay is the consumer fintech trusted by millions of Americans to make money better.

Our financial system is broken. High fees, low rates, and too few ways to actually grow your money. We’re fixing it. And we’re moving fast.

We’re an all-in-one financial services platform that brings together banking, high-yield savings, credit cards, point-of-sale lending, investing, and crypto in one place. We also partner with employers, HCM providers, gig platforms, and others to deliver embedded financial services to millions of employees and frontline workers.

We’re backed by Walmart, the world’s largest retailer, and Ribbit Capital, one of fintech’s most respected investors, giving us rare scale, distribution, and the opportunity to build something truly category-defining.

But what really sets OnePay apart is how we move. Our customers don’t have time to wait… and neither do we. This place moves fast, and we’re looking for people who are:

  • Ready to run

  • Hungry and driven by urgency

  • Exceptional at what they do, with low ego

  • Comfortable operating in motion

The Role

As a Design Intern at OnePay, you’ll work alongside the Design team to support product discovery, competitive analysis, interaction design, prototyping, and design systems work across active initiatives. You’ll gain hands-on exposure to how a fast-moving fintech builds and scales product design.

  • Team Integration: You’ll be paired with Design team members and work alongside Product and Engineering partners, with opportunities to collaborate with Analytics. You’ll participate in design reviews, critiques, product discovery, and competitive analysis.

  • Real-World Projects: You’ll support product discovery, competitive analysis, interaction design, and prototyping, and contribute to our design system while working on real product surfaces from concept through execution.

  • Skill Building & Career Growth: Throughout the internship, you’ll attend workshops focused on technical skills, resume building, interview prep, and professional development. You’ll also have the chance to engage with company leadership during networking events.

  • Mentorship: Receive guidance and feedback from your manager, as well as a dedicated mentor who will help you navigate your internship experience, ensuring continuous learning and growth.

You Bring

  • In Your Final Year of Undergrad: You’re a current Bachelor’s student expected to graduate in Fall 2027 or Spring 2028, majoring in Design, HCI, Interaction Design, Visual Design, or a related field.

  • Availability: This is a full-time, 8-week program running June 21 - August 13, 2027. You are available to work in our New York City office at least 3-4 days a week throughout the entire program.

  • Proactive & Collaborative Attitude: You have an act-like-an-owner mentality, thrive in a fast-moving environment, and enjoy working with others to achieve collective goals.

  • Critical Thinking & Problem-Solving Skills: You enjoy tackling complex challenges, analyzing problems, and developing solutions. Clear communication of ideas is one of your strengths.

  • Organized & Detail-Oriented: You’re a keen listener with strong organizational skills, capable of managing multiple tasks efficiently.
