Job Responsibilities
We are seeking a talented Product Design Intern to join our growing Government Systems team. This team builds products and services that primarily support military users, on and off the battlefield.
This includes:
- Enabling secure networks to be set up quickly
- Encrypting confidential communications (and making sure they stay that way)
- Providing resilient internet access on the planes that carry our nation's leaders
We work with all branches of the military, including the Space Force and Special Forces. Our products take on complex technical tasks. Making those tasks easy to use under pressure makes for challenging UX.
For our military and civilian users, great designs are the ones that make complex data streams simple to process, reduce cognitive load, and enable quick decisions. Done right, our design work can save precious minutes, and ultimately, save lives.
We're looking for a designer who can contribute to the design process end to end - envisioning future concepts, defining flows to detailed interaction designs and prototypes, supporting user testing, and delivery.
