Job description

RE:LAB is a design and innovation company specialized in shaping the interaction between people and complex technologies.

Since 2004, we have been working on products and systems used daily across the automotive, industrial, and consumer sectors. Our goal is to make advanced technology understandable, safe, and natural to use.

We don’t just design interfaces. We design experiences that bring together design, engineering, human factors, and artificial intelligence. Our multidisciplinary team tackles real-world challenges in highly complex contexts, where quality and reliability are essential.

We partner with global companies when user experience is not a detail, but a critical factor for a product’s success—when adoption, safety, and user trust truly make the difference.

At RE:LAB, we believe technology should feel human. This belief guides the way we work, the design decisions we make, and the relationships we build every day.

Designing human experiences for complex technologies.

To strengthen our Design & HMI division, we are looking for a UI Design Intern to contribute to the development of innovative digital interfaces and Human–Machine Interaction (HMI) solutions.

The selected candidate will support the visual design of digital interfaces for mobility, automotive, and industrial applications, contributing to the creation of intuitive, engaging, and visually consistent user experiences.

The internship offers the opportunity to develop graphical concepts, interface layouts, visual components, and interactive prototypes, working alongside experienced UI/UX designers and multidisciplinary engineering teams.

We are looking for a creative and curious designer with strong aesthetic sensitivity, attention to detail, and a genuine passion for digital interfaces, visual communication, and innovative technologies.

• Explore typography, colors, visual hierarchy, and graphical composition to ensure interface consistency.
• Support the development of interactive prototypes and visual presentations.
• Create and refine graphical assets using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.
• Collaborate with UX designers to translate functional requirements into effective visual solutions.
• Support the preparation of graphical specifications and interface documentation.
• Participate in brainstorming sessions, design reviews, and creative development activities.

• Master's degree in Transportation Design, Interaction Design, Industrial Design, Communication Design, or related design disciplines.
• Good knowledge of Figma for UI design and prototyping.
• Good knowledge of Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.
• Strong visual design skills, creativity, and aesthetic sensibility.
• Good understanding of typography, colors, composition, and visual hierarchy.
• Basic knowledge of User Interface Design principles.
• Ability to develop and communicate graphical concepts and design ideas.
• Attention to detail and interest in digital interface design.
• Curiosity, willingness to learn, and ability to work within multidisciplinary teams.
• Good command of the English language, both written and spoken.

• Schedule: Full-time
• Start date: To be agreed based on candidate availability
• Work location: On-site, Reggio Emilia
• Internship allowance: the internship includes a monthly reimbursement, in accordance with the applicable regional regulations.

Our Promise

We build technology for people—and that same principle guides how we work together. At RE:LAB, you’ll find more than a role: a place where ideas are valued, growth is supported, and individual perspectives contribute to meaningful innovation.

Our Values in Action

• Integrity first: we act with transparency and responsibility in every decision, project, and interaction.
• Diversity as a strength: different backgrounds and viewpoints help us solve complex problems better.
