We are now looking for a talented design technology intern to join us in either our Malmö or Stockholm (Sweden) studios in spring 2027.

You will get the opportunity to work with multi-disciplinary project teams on a wide variety of cutting-edge design & innovation projects, while being able to contribute to many stages of the design process. We believe in creating a culture where you, as an individual, can take responsibility for your work - but we also take care of each other as we navigate ambiguity, tackle challenging problems, and grow as a team.

One of our core philosophies is that we believe in bringing design and technology together from the very beginning, breaking down boundaries between the physical and the digital, while fusing hardware & software into meaningful product experiences.

What we are looking for

• An inspiring design portfolio; good ideas, strong conceptual thinking, creativity
• Hands-on mentality and familiarity with technical prototyping across physical and digital
• Technical knowledge balanced with a thoughtful, user-centered design approach
• Ability to adapt methods, thought-process and approach to project needs
• Curiosity for new technologies and how they could enable better products and experiences
• A humble, self-driven and optimistic attitude; willingness and desire to learn
• Team player, with good verbal & visual communication skills

Our work is exciting and diverse in nature, spanning high-volume consumer products, smart home devices, furniture, future mobility experiences, progressive healthcare solutions and much more.

We are also very much interested in receiving applications from individuals that bridge disciplines or have unique profiles in between the traditional molds - let’s talk!
