Ux/Ui Intern

SENSIS

Who we are:

An integrated cross-cultural marketing agency. We reflect and embrace the cultural diversity of America to develop meaningful marketing programs that drive measurable conversions.

We opened our doors in 1998 (as Focus Multimedia). We got our start building websites and have expanded into a full-service advertising agency, helping our clients take advantage of the fundamental changes taking place in the marketing world - the emergence of digital technologies, expanded multiculturalism, and the transformative impact of social media.

What we are looking for:

The part-time UX/UI intern will be a junior-level member of the UX/UI team and be a part of the end-to-end design process for new and existing projects. As a small team, we're looking for people who are ready and excited to take ownership of projects as well as willing to take on any essential task to ensure project success. We are looking for people who have infinite curiosity, lots of empathy, and a willingness to welcome new challenges. You'll work with a team who is intelligent, driven, and caring. We expect the same from you.

What you'll be doing:

• Conceptualize and ideate for new projects and new business pitches with a problem-solving mindset.

• Assist with the creation of various deliverables including customer journeys, personas, sitemaps, wireframes, and prototypes.

• Help conduct user research, stakeholder interviews, and usability testing.

• Be able to answer the "why?" of your design decisions and defend your thinking.

• Give and take constructive feedback on designs.

• Proactively recommend concepts and enhancements for project success and overall improvements to process.

• Successfully work independently and as part of a team.

• Effectively communicate with other teams in the agency including software engineers and creatives as well as the strategy, business development, and media teams.

What You'll Bring Along:

Experience working in highly collaborative, integrated teams at mid-size advertising agencies.

• Ability to design user flows, wireframes, and mock-ups.

• Experience using UX wireframing and prototyping software (e.g., Sketch, Figma, etc.).

• Extremely detail oriented with strong verbal and written communication skills.

• A current portfolio demonstrating your design approach and thought process from identifying a problem to solving it.

• Strong time management skills with the ability to work on multiple projects at once and meet deadlines.

• A natural propensity for always delivering your best work and never settling for mediocrity.

• A curiosity and interest in staying up-to-date on current design trends.

• A portfolio demonstrating your best UX/UI thinking.

• 1 year of experience in UX/UI is preferred.

• Experience in layout and color theory is a plus.

• Development skills in and/or an understanding of HTML5/ CSS3 and some JavaScript (jQuery) is a plus.
