This is an incredible opportunity for an early-career designer to build a broad, multidisciplinary skill set across physical and digital design disciplines in a high-energy, small-team environment where every contributor wears multiple hats.

You'll have... Bachelor's degree in industrial design, transportation design, or a related field. Some experience (internship, co-op, academic, or entry-level) in a consumer product industry, transportation sector or supplier, design consultancy, or similar field. Working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite design tools. Familiarity with at least one 3D modeling software application (e.g., Alias AutoStudio, Rhino, or Blender). Familiarity with relevant presentation applications (e.g., PowerPoint, Keynote, or similar). Even better, you may have... 0-2 years of industrial design or transportation design studio experience (internships and academic project work welcomed).

Interest in learning to translate design vision into animated story-form using digital presentation tools (including AI visualization tools). A growth mindset and willingness to take on new challenges as design proposals move from concept toward production.
