Position Overview Autodesk is looking for an intern to join a highly collaborative Experience Design team for the summer. Autodesk software is used daily by millions of design and engineering professionals all over the world - who also need to manage their logins and licenses!

The Platform Services and Emerging Technologies (PSET) organization enables Autodesk product teams and Autodesk customers to accelerate outcomes by providing a trusted platform of shared and enabling capabilities.

The Experience Design (XD) team within PSET includes interaction design, visual design, research, and content strategy.
Responsibilities Visualize and prototype intended solutions at various levels of fidelity, from high-level wireframes or mock-ups to conceptual presentations to highly technical documents and diagrams. Collaborate closely with one or more local or remote Agile Scrum teams, working iteratively to deliver customer value. Use customer insights that come from analytics and customer interactions to help inform business and design decisions.
Help develop and conduct usability tests and other customer research. Run competitive analyses to identify industry best practices or key capabilities related to specific projects.

You have profound empathy for people and want to create the best experiences, even in apparently mundane tasks.
You are an enthusiastic collaborator, able to work with people from different disciplines to get the job done. You are a systems thinker who is as interested in what is happening behind the screens as in crafting the interaction experience. You're excited about digging into the design process alongside other experience designers, researchers, and content strategists, working on real projects while receiving guidance and feedback from senior members of our Experience Design team. We would especially love to talk with you if you have these qualifications:

US recruiting begins in the Fall and concludes end of March. Our Internships align with Autodesk's Flexible Workplace approach, which is designed to meet the needs of our business while providing flexibility in support of office, remote and hybrid work preferences.
