UX UI Internships

Come be a part of the Esri UX UI team next summer! We are looking for students interested in gaining applied UX, UI, or UX Research experience who are excited about working on geospatial technology that is used to solve the world's toughest problems.

Responsibilities

As a UX UI intern, you will work collaboratively with seasoned researchers, designers, engineers, and other stakeholders to run a project from start to finish. Learn what it's like to work in tech as a UX UI professional while gaining meaningful experience in the methodologies, processes, and tools used in the UX industry. While you will work on actual problems (no menial busy work here), being an intern on our team is also about developing your foundation as a UX UI professional. Whether it's how to navigate school, deciphering business lingo, or preparing for the job market, your teammates and Esri colleagues will be an invaluable resource to help you on your path.
