Product Design Internship

As my work is under strict employee proprietary information and inventions assignment agreement (PIIA), I cannot share the specifics on what I created or how I created it.

Due to COVID 19, the internship was remote.

During summer of 2020, I worked for Random Math Inc. as a Product Design Intern.

Duration: May 2020 - August 2020
12 Weeks

Design Methods & Contribution

Research

I conducted user research in a variety of ways like competitive analysis and interviews and used insights to create designs.

Design

I designed in multiple fidelity starting from sketched wireframes and iterated up to high fidelity prototypes. I created interactive prototypes when in prototyping tool Figma.

I engaged in interaction design and visual design.

Test & Iterate

I conducted user tests to test usability and desirability of the designs.

I used the takeaways from the tests to iterate on the designs.

Reflection

Being able to get professional experience during a pandemic is quite a feat for me in my opinion. While I saw all of my friends lose their internship opportunities due to the raging pandemic as summer started, I was fortunate to have this internship experience.

I was glad to be able to work as a Product Designer as I was able to apply my skills in a variety of ways. I was able to get experience in interaction and visual design spaces which are areas of my specialization. Working “in the real world” was certainly a great experience for me as not only I have some work experience for my resume, I have a better idea of how things work in the world.
