We just opened 1 FREE seat for a UI Design Intern.
*FREE = costs you nothing, pays you in skills, tools, and portfolio.
Most design internships = make mockups in Figma, hand off to developers, never see it live.
You'll design AND build. Figma → Webflow → production. Full cycle.
Here's what's broken about design work in 2025:
Designers make beautiful mockups. They hand them to developers. Weeks later, maybe it ships. Maybe it doesn't. Maybe it looks nothing like the design.
Meanwhile, the best designers? They ship. They own the full cycle. Design to production. No hand-offs. No "lost in translation."
And they build portfolio pieces they can actually share on Dribbble. Real work. Live pages. Not just mockups.
So we asked ourselves:
What if we hired a designer who can do both? Design in Figma AND build in Webflow. Ship production-grade landing pages and interactive experiences that actually go live?
What you'll actually do:
Design landing pages (in Figma – for product launches, campaigns, features, whatever we need)
Build them in Webflow (turn your designs into real, responsive, production-ready pages)
Create interactive experiences (animations, interactions, micro-interactions – not just static pages)
Work with cross-functional teams (gather content from writers, understand marketing goals, integrate video, use data insights to improve conversions)
Optimize for conversion (balance aesthetics with what actually works – pretty doesn't always convert)
Ship to production (your designs go live, real users see them, you own the result)
Iterate based on data (see what performs, what doesn't, improve based on real metrics)
Build portfolio-worthy work (every page you ship = portfolio piece you can share on Dribbble, Behance, wherever)
Learn continuously (you'll start with 2 weeks of deep dive into our brand, audience, and goals, but real expertise comes from 6 months of shipping)
→ Weeks 1-2: Deep dive into Unstuck Engine brand, design system, and audience – understand our visual identity, see what's working, learn our goals. This is your foundation.
→ Weeks 3-4: Trial period – you're designing and building your first landing page, working with other teams, we're both deciding if this fits
→ Months 2-6: You're owning UI design and production – designing pages, building in Webflow, shipping to production, iterating based on performance
What makes this different:
Most design roles = design OR code. Not both.
This = design AND build. Full ownership from concept to live page.
You'll ship real work. Not mockups in a folder. Real pages. Live. With your name on them.
Who Should Apply:
Recent graduates in Graphic Design, UI/UX, Visual Design, or Interaction Design. This works best with deep immersion - the more hours you put in, the faster you'll learn and ship. Some interns do 15-20 hours/week, others go full-time (40 hours/week). Full-time means you build more, learn faster, and see stronger results in 6 months.
You must have Webflow and Figma experience. Show us your portfolio – we want to see what you've shipped, not just what you've designed.
Fair warning:
This isn't for everyone.
If you don't know Webflow and Figma → We need someone who can hit the ground running, not learn from scratch
If you only want to design (not build) → You'll do both – design in Figma AND build in Webflow
If you want weeks to perfect one page → We ship fast, iterate based on data, startup pace not agency perfectionism
If you can't take feedback from non-designers → You'll work with marketing, content, product teams who have input
If you prioritize aesthetics over conversion → We need pages that convert, not just look pretty (though ideally both)
But if you want to design AND ship (not just hand off mockups), build production-grade portfolio pieces (real pages on Dribbble, not just concepts), work fast and iterate (ship, measure, improve), collaborate with cross-functional teams (marketing, content, product, video), and own the full cycle from Figma to live page – we should talk.
Because here's what we believe:
0% of great design portfolios are just mockups.
0% of effective landing pages ignore conversion data.
100% of designers who ship own the full cycle from design to production.
What happens after 6 months?
You complete the internship program and join our alumni network.
Top performers get considered for our UI Designer position (paid, equity, real role).
Either way, you leave with:
- Portfolio of production landing pages (live work you designed and built)
- Experience owning full cycle (Figma → Webflow → production)
- Understanding of conversion-focused design (not just aesthetics)
- Cross-functional collaboration skills (working with marketing, content, product teams)
- Webflow and Figma mastery at production level
The best designers ship. Not just design.
Ready to build a portfolio of work that's actually live?
Apply: Record a 1-minute video (phone quality is fine) explaining:
- What excites you about designing AND building (not just handing off)?
- Share your portfolio – show us 1-2 pieces you're most proud of (especially if they're live)
- Why you, why now, why this internship?
Send your video with the application: https://app.dover.com/apply/Unstuck%20Engine/ca59294b-0be4-4ea9-809a-5eec3a849e82?rs=72237129
(And if your portfolio is all mockups with no live work? That's okay, but tell us why you want to change that.)
P.S. — Still reading? Good. Go look at your portfolio. What would you add if you spent 6 months shipping real landing pages for a B2B startup? Then record that video. We want designers who care about shipping, not just pixels.
