Ui/Ux Designer Intern

This is a remote position.

AXL Labs is looking for a UI/UX Designer Intern to craft intuitive and sleek interfaces. You will map user journeys, build wireframes, and design high-fidelity prototypes for our AI voice agent platform, Converse, and our open-source applications. You will bridge the gap between user needs and technical capabilities.

Key Responsibilities:

• Conduct user research and competitor analysis to identify UX friction points and opportunities.

• Create user personas, journey maps, and flowcharts to dictate product structure.

• Design low-fidelity wireframes and translate them into interactive, high-fidelity prototypes.

• Establish and maintain a scalable UI component library (Design System) in Figma for seamless developer handoff.

• Participate in design critiques and iterate rapidly based on team feedback and usability testing.

• Strong proficiency in Figma and modern UI design principles (auto-layout, design systems, variants).

• Solid grasp of UX fundamentals: information architecture, edge cases, and responsive web/mobile design.

• Basic understanding of web accessibility standards (WCAG) to design inclusive interfaces.

• A portfolio demonstrating clean, functional, and user-centric problem-solving, explicitly showing the process from sketch to final design.

Bonus / Good-to-Have Skills:

• Familiarity with micro-interactions and animation tools (Lottie, Principle, Framer).

• Understanding of basic HTML/CSS constraints to communicate effectively with the frontend engineering team.

• Experience with A/B testing concepts or analytics tools (Google Analytics).

• Intensive 3-month unpaid learning and mentorship period.

• Performance-based stipend of 5,000 to 20,000 per month during months 3 to 6.

• Opportunity to be absorbed as a permanent, full-time employee after 6 months.
