The Role
We're looking for a hungry, proactive, and reliable Graphic Design Intern who is excited to take ownership of real design work. This role is for someone who thrives in a fast-paced startup environment, brings ideas to life quickly, and wants meaningful responsibility from day one. You'll work closely with our Design and Growth teams to support brand, marketing, and e-commerce initiatives across digital, product, and lifestyle surfaces.
You won't be shadowing. You'll be shipping. The ideal candidate has a high bar for design craft, a passion for health tech and wellness, and is self-driven enough to take an idea from a rough sketch to a polished, on-brand asset with minimal hand-holding.

• Support: You'll be a reliable second set of hands for the Design Lead, handling simple animations, light video editing, and fast-turnaround requests so bigger creative ideas can ship on time.
• React: During sports and product launches, you'll help the team move quickly, turning around social assets in real time as moments unfold.

• Design creative assets for multi-channel campaigns, including web pages, social content, event activations, packaging, swag, and video.
• Resize, version, and export assets for different channels and formats.
• Create subtitles, localized assets, and basic animations for social and marketing content.
• Assist with light video editing, image retouching, and AI-assisted content production.
• Produce polished OOH assets for client billboards and customer-related perks assets.
• Evolve and maintain brand consistency across all touchpoints while experimenting with new visual ideas.
• Develop performance-driven creative for paid channels, collaborating with Growth to optimize for impact.
• Create internal templates, presentations, and branded materials for cross-functional teams.
• Participate in creative reviews, standups, and working sessions to iterate quickly and raise the quality bar.
• Version and adapt assets across channels such as web, email, social, and print, while ensuring cohesion and craft.
• Manage design files, maintain organized asset libraries, and uphold workflow best practices.

Basic Qualifications:

• Current student or recent graduate in Graphic Design, Computer Arts, or a related field.
• Proficient in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects).
• Comfortable using AI-powered creative tools to speed up production.
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail-you catch the small stuff before it ships.
• Ability to work quickly and calmly under time pressure, especially during live/launch moments.
• Effectively contribute to group creative discussions and critiques.
• Work collaboratively with the design team and marketing team to reach creative goals while cultivating a strong team-oriented environment.
• Keep managers up to date on the progress and development of projects.
• You are interested in the health and wellness space, particularly in sleep.
• Ability to prioritize tasks and juggle multiple projects.
