Digital Product Design Internship

The Work

Hello there.

Nice to have you here, we know you’re busy, so we’ll keep it short.

We’re a fun-loving team of clever, passionate people. We think, we plot, and we create products and experiences that help our clients solve problems and seize opportunities. Our work includes crafting digital products that people love, implementing industry-changing digital transformations, and improving business performance using digital technology and data insights. We bridge the gap between brand promise and expectations by creating transformative Experiences.

Daily Tasks

What you will be doing depends mostly on the research topic that you will define, but as this internship is product design-related, it’s very likely that you will dip your toes into some of the following activities:

• Explore design concepts, experimenting with different design ideas and approaches, allowing you to innovate and push the boundaries of your creativity.
• Facilitate workshops to understand, ideate, and create. All that good stuff.
• Turn concepts into prototypes, whether it’s low or high-fidelity, you’ll make it look good.
• Conduct user research from user interviews to usability testing to ensure you are building the right thing, before you build the thing right.
• Nerd out on information architecture, wireframes, design systems, and edge cases and know what is needed for the end-to-end process.
• Refine and polish the user interface, obsessing over details, perfectly placing every pixel in balance with your 8pt grid.

Besides your thesis, you will have the opportunity to gain experience within the Design & Digital Products domain within Accenture Song.

Research

We support research topics that can be, amongst others, in line with one of the following topics:

• Creating inclusive design systems
• Collaboration in design teams
• Integrating AI in the design thinking process
• Ethical implications of generative AI

We will work together to define the specific topic. It’s important to think of a topic that interests you!
