We’re looking for two Product Design Interns to join our team in the heart of NYC for Summer 2026. This isn’t a “sit back and watch” internship - you’re joining us at the frontier of AI to help simplify video creation and make it accessible to everyone, everywhere.
At our scale, you won’t just shadow, you will own the end to end design process for features that ship to real users. You’ll spend your summer in the room where it happens, collaborating deeply with engineering and product peers to translate complex AI capabilities into high-fidelity, intuitive experiences.
This is an in-person internship based in our New York City office (Union Square). Please note that we do not provide relocation assistance or housing support for the duration of the program.
