Your internship will focus on the evolution of our Brand Design System.</p> <p>Great brands have a functional and flexible design system that’s both usable across the business and engineered for the modern age. You’ll be responsible for auditing, designing, and building out a Figma-based Brand Asset Library. This includes:</p> <ul> <li>The Component Refresh: Auditing our current social, email, and presentation templates and rebuilding them into high-functioning Figma components.</li> <li>The Mini-Campaign: Applying your new system to a real-world business initiative (e.g., a Q3 product launch or seasonal brand campaign).</li> <li>The Hand-off: Presenting your library to the wider marketing team and creating "How-to" documentation to ensure your work lives on after your 10 weeks.</li> </ul> <p><strong>What You’ll Do Day-to-Day</strong></p> <ul> <li>Support the senior design team with junior-level production work (social assets, digital ads, presentation decks, and ebooks).</li> <li>Participate in creative brainstorm sessions—we want your eyes and your opinions.</li> <li>Master the art of Figma auto-layout and component properties (we’ll teach you, but you should be ready to dive in).</li> <li>Collaborate with your Manager and Mentor to navigate the transition from in-office collaboration to remote execution.</li> </ul> <h2><strong>The Team You'll Work With</strong></h2> <p>At Carta, the Creative Team is hard at work building a world-class brand that scales seamlessly across a diverse range of projects — from visual ID and branding work, to paid ad campaigns and ground-up narrative storytelling.</p> <p>To help us in that mission, we’re looking for an ambitious Brand Design intern who’s ready to move beyond “making things look pretty” and help us architect a system that scales across the whole business.</p> <p><strong>Support Mentorship</strong><br>We know the first few weeks are a whirlwind. You will be paired with:</p> <ul> <li>A Manager: To guide your project scope, provide technical feedback, and ensure your work aligns with business goals.</li> <li>A Mentor: A dedicated peer designer to help you navigate our tool stack (Figma, Slack, project management) and give you the "unfiltered" scoop on how to succeed here.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Program At-a-Glance</strong><br>Location: San Francisco (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday mandatory in-office)<br> ...
