The basics

Location : Dubai, onsite

Duration : 3 months

Start date : 1 September 2026

Compensation : Unpaid - see what we're offering above

What you'll do

Develop a deep understanding of user needs, motivations, and pain points through research and empathy tools like personas and journey maps.

Assist in identifying user problems and generating design solutions using design thinking methodologies.

Create wireframes, mockups, and prototypes that balance form and function, ensuring usability, accessibility, and visual consistency.

Use prototyping tools to quickly visualize and test design concepts, then iterate based on user feedback and data.

Work closely with product managers, engineers, and business stakeholders to ensure designs are aligned and feasible.

Support the design team in conducting user research, analyzing findings, and applying insights to improve product designs.

What you'll have

A strong grasp of fundamental design principles - visual hierarchy, color theory, typography. You understand why design decisions work, not just how to execute them.

Familiarity with Figma - you've used them on real or academic projects and don't need a tutorial to get started.

Ability to create wireframes , mockups, and prototypes that communicate your thinking clearly to engineers and PMs.

Strong communication skills - you can articulate why you made a design decision, not just what you made.

Empathy for users - you understand user-centered design and advocate for the user in discussions, even when business pressures push the other way.

An AI-first mindset - you're comfortable using AI tools in your own workflow to move faster and think more clearly.

Curiosity and a proactive mindset - you ask questions, learn fast, and don't wait to be told what to do next.

A portfolio of digital design work. Apps, websites, posters, brand work, game UI, a redesign of something that annoyed you, a university brief. Any digital design counts. We care how you think, not where it shipped.

Interest or coursework in product design, UX, or a related field. No specific degree required.

Knowledge of accessibility and inclusive design practices is a plus.
