Are you passionate about creating intuitive, user-centered designs and eager to learn? Do you want to work with a talented team to craft innovative digital experiences and shape the future of our products?

We are looking for a creative and detail-oriented Product Design Intern to join our team. This is a great opportunity for someone passionate about design, UX/UI, and digital experiences to gain hands-on experience in a fast-paced and dynamic environment.

About us 

We are Canvas8, a strategic insights practice with offices in London, NYC, LA, Singapore and Manila. We help our clients understand people so they can make better business decisions.

Our work investigates the hidden insights in everyday life – from the psychology behind the rise of absurdism in media, and teenagers’ obsession with romantasy and fan fiction, to why AI companions are becoming Gen Z’s go-to besties – and makes them meaningful for brands. Our team is a blend of disciplines and skills, from psychology to journalism and anthropology to behavioural economics. What unites us is a desire to understand people and a passion for delivering outstanding work.

As a Product Design Intern, you’ll have the opportunity to work on innovative digital experiences that enhance our products and services. Collaborating closely with the Product and Innovation team, as well as other key stakeholders, you’ll contribute to high-quality design solutions – whether through crafting compelling product mockups, refining our evolving design system, or supporting the development of AI-driven features. This is a fantastic opportunity to develop your skills in Figma, UX research, and product development while making a real impact.

  • Ability to simplify complex requirements into clear, user-friendly designs
  • Experience or genuine interest in developing sophisticated UI within Brand Guidelines
  • Passion for UX/UI excellence and user-centered product design
  • Interest in human insights is a plus
  • 6 months paid internship
