• Work closely with researchers, product managers, and marketing to explore ideas that matter.
• Along the way, you'll gain exposure to broader innovation challenges—including trade ecosystems, digital touchpoints, and service opportunities beyond the core product.
• Stay open to emerging tools (like AI in design or research)—we’re learning and experimenting together.

• Physical prototyping experience preferred.
• Curiosity and a desire to grow—you’re proactive, organized, and eager to learn in a team environment.
