Job Description

 

Deeplocal is looking for a Design Intern with a focus on interactive experience design to join the team for Fall 2025.

Deeplocal pushes the boundaries of interactive experiences for some of the world’s top brands. Design interns work alongside experience designers, creative marketing strategists, and technologists to develop and refine creative concepts. Our interns contribute to the artistic vision of real-world physical experiences, environments, and exhibits through hands-on learning and application of their skills, with mentorship from top professionals in the field. 

Experience Design interns collaboratively support the creation of experiences that tell a strategic story and look visually-stunning all while meeting the client’s goals. This typically looks like:

  • Concept Visualization - Communicate abstract concepts with compelling visuals and demonstrate strong physical and visual design skills—including the ability to visualize ideas through sketches and/or renderings.
  • Pitch/RFP Support - Support the pitch and RFP response process with secondary research, deck design, sketching, modeling, and mood board development. 
  • Persona and User Journey Support - Assist creative team members and strategists in secondary research, developing personas, creating user journeys, and thinking about how people move about around a space.
  • Physical + Interaction Design - Work with the creative team members and creative technologists to design spatial interactions, environments, and physical objects (from early sketches to full visual models and detailed interaction design).
  • Digital Design (UX / UI / Motion Design) - Prototype and express design/motion approach across 2D/3D animation, interaction design, and visual effects.
  • Visual Design - Prepare finish material sample boards, physical models, and graphic presentations for client approval. Create, and iterate, original designs (print, environmental, etc.) based on internal direction.

Interns are compensated with competitive wages. For credit options are also available, if desired. All design internships are based in our studio in Pittsburgh, PA.

 

Desired Skills

  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills are a must
  • Interest in a combination of strategy and design, developing a holistic narrative vision for a space
  • Experience designing spatial interactions, environments, and physical objects
  • Experience expressing creative ideas through mockups, mood boards, styleframes, and motion prototypes.
  • Proficient in a 3D modeling software (SketchUp, Rhino, or Fusion preferred)
  • An awareness of current aesthetic, cultural, and popular trends
  • A strong understanding of marketing and experience crafting concepts in response to creative marketing briefs is strongly preferred
