Design Intern, Autonomous App Studio

We’re building an AI-native app studio that designs, launches, and markets a portfolio of consumer apps. The goal is simple: move fast, make useful products, and learn from the market by shipping real apps.

This is not a “make one deck and wait for feedback” design internship. You’ll work across lots of app ideas: accountability apps, wake-up apps, fitness, meditation, AI friends, finance behavior tools, personality quizzes, college/career tools, and more. One week you might design onboarding and paywalls for a consumer mobile app; the next, you might be mapping a retention loop, redesigning an app store listing, or turning rough product ideas into polished prototypes.

What You’ll Do

  • Design mobile app flows, screens, prototypes, and visual systems across multiple new apps

  • Research competitor apps, onboarding flows, paywalls, App Store listings, TikTok/Instagram trends, and UX patterns

  • Turn rough product ideas into clear, usable concepts that can actually be built

  • Create Figma mockups for onboarding, core product loops, settings, empty states, paywalls, and launch screens

  • Work with builders using AI tools, Deep24, Codex, and other modern workflows to move from idea to shipped product quickly

  • Help create marketing visuals, app store screenshots, short-form content concepts, and landing page directions

  • Build a portfolio of real shipped products instead of theoretical class projects

  • You’ll Be A Great Fit If

  • You’re excited by consumer apps, mobile UX, and internet-native product design

  • You can move quickly without waiting for perfect instructions

  • You care about taste, clarity, retention, and what makes an app feel addictive or useful

  • You like studying great apps and figuring out why their onboarding, paywalls, loops, and visuals work

  • You’re comfortable using AI tools as part of your design and research process

  • You want unusually high ownership for an internship

  • Why This Role Is Different

  • Most design internships put you on one narrow product surface. Here, you’ll get reps across many apps. You’ll see the full studio loop: research, concept, prototype, build, launch, market, measure, repeat.

  • If you want to become dramatically better at designing real products, this is a high-repetition environment. You’ll leave with shipped work, sharper product instincts, and a portfolio that shows range.

  • Logistics

  • Focus: Mobile app design, product research, prototyping, and launch assets

  • Location: Remote or hybrid, depending on fit
