The worldwide data management software market is massive (IDC forecasts it to be 136 billion by 2027!). At MongoDB we are transforming industries and empowering developers to build amazing apps that people use every day. We are the leading developer data platform and the first database provider to IPO in over 20 years. Join our team and be at the forefront of innovation and creativity.

We’re seeking an individual passionate about improving the world through design and making technology accessible to more people. MongoDB Australia is looking for a Product Design Intern to help us create user experiences that are not only easy to use - they are wanted and enjoyed by our customers too. 

As an intern, you will collaborate closely with Senior Product Designers to gain practical product design experience. You will determine and advocate for user needs, make design decisions, and balance those with business objectives and engineering trade-offs, to create user experiences that will make an impact in our data migration product, MongoDB Relational Migrator. You will develop an understanding of MongoDB customers who migrate data, through user feedback, competitive analysis, and common behaviour patterns. You will collaborate with designers, product managers, engineers and stakeholders to discover, define, design and develop user experiences for MongoDB Relational Migrator, and partner with the Migrator team to develop and implement your work.

Responsibilities:

• Evaluate competitors and related solutions in the data migration market
• Generate ideas with your cross functional team through design workshops
• Iterate your solutions from low-fidelity wireframes to high-fidelity prototypes based on feedback from your team and users
• Conduct research to test assumptions and validate design decisions
• Deliver your work to build with relevant documentation and specifications
• Present your final project to your team and stakeholders

Who we are looking for: 

• In the process of completing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree, or certificate, in Design, IT, Human Computer Interaction, Interaction Design, User Experience Design, Digital Media Design, Engineering, or currently studying related fields 
• Interested in prototyping, designing, testing, implementing, and evaluating user experiences for native and locally installed software applications
• Familiar with usability heuristics and best practices in UX Design and Visual Design
• Experience with prototyping and can create process diagrams and low-fidelity wireframes
• Experience with UI design and can create high fidelity mockups and component specifications
• You are beginning to learn the different research methods to test assumptions and validate design decisions
• Have a portfolio of work, or relevant project, that highlights your design deliverables, design process, role on the project, and includes research

What you'll find at MongoDB:

• Authentic Culture: A workplace where you are encouraged to bring your whole self to work, we believe that Embracing the Power of Differences is the best way to broaden our own perspectives and foster innovation.
• Personalized Mentorship: Pair up with a Design Mentor, a Program Advisor from the Early Talent Recruitment Team, and an Employee Resource Group (ERG) Guide to foster your growth.
• Career Coaching Sessions: Access to "MonGROWDB", a tailored training program designed uniquely for interns’ personal and professional development.

• Vibrant Community: Build connections with fellow interns and join after-work social events, virtual gatherings, and local city activities to create connections and friendships.
• Path to Full-Time: A chance to see if MongoDB is where you see yourself long term with the possibility of receiving a full time offer at the end of the summer!
