• Be a team player and capable of working independently.

Your Impact (Specific Projects for this Role):

As a Corporate IT, App Analysis & Digital Experience Intern, you will participate in projects with a sharp focus on two high-priority pillars: Enterprise Adobe SaaS Migration and Optimization of B2B Indirect Sales (Dealer/Partner) Portals.

• UX/UI Modernization & Adobe SaaS Integration:
  • System Audit & Mapping: Catalog existing on-premise UI components and map them to the new Adobe SaaS Core Components to identify design gaps during the cloud migration.
  • UI Refactoring: Create high-fidelity mockups in Figma that modernize legacy “Classic UI” screens into the new Adobe Touch-Enabled UI standards.
  • Design System Governance: Ensure all migrated digital assets and web fragments align with WCAG 2.2 accessibility requirements and Canon’s global brand identity.
• B2B Indirect Sales & Dealer Portal Optimization:
  • Partner Experience (PX) Analysis: Audit the digital journey for Indirect Sales Partners, focusing on lead registration, bulk ordering, and co-branded marketing collateral downloads.
  • B2B Web Strategy: Analyze external-facing B2B websites to identify friction points that hinder dealer productivity or sales velocity.
  • Persona Development: Create detailed user personas for different tiers of “Indirect Sellers” to ensure the portal interface serves both high-volume distributors and smaller local dealers.
• SaaS Implementation & Change Management:
  • Cloud Readiness Support: Collaborate with the IT team to identify UI code that requires refactoring for the “locked core” SaaS environment.
  • Functional QA: Conduct usability testing on new “SaaS-native” blocks to ensure seamless rendering across mobile and desktop environments for field sales reps.
  • User Documentation: Assist in creating “Transition Guides” for Indirect Sales partners to help them navigate the upgraded Adobe-driven web experience.
• Analytics & Performance Benchmarking:
  • Data-Driven Insights: Utilize Adobe Analytics and behavioral tracking to monitor how Indirect Sales partners interact with new portal features.
  • KPI Reporting: Track “Time-to-Task” for common dealer actions (e.g., checking order status or downloading firmware) to prove the ROI of the SaaS migration.
  • Competitor Benchmarking: Perform a “Heuristic Evaluation” of competitor B2B portals to recommend UI enhancements that make Canon the easiest partner to do business with.

About You: The Skills & Expertise You Bring (Specific Role Requirements):

• Preferred Majors: Computer Science, HCI, UX Design, or IT Management. A student pursuing a graduate degree is a plus.
• Technical Toolkit: Proficiency in Figma or Adobe XD; familiarity with Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) or similar CMS platforms is a significant plus.
• Business Acumen: An interest in “Indirect Sales” models—understanding how a manufacturer supports a dealer network through digital tools.
• Communication: Strong verbal and written skills; ability to translate technical “SaaS” constraints into user-friendly design solutions.
• Analytical Mindset: Comfortable using data to justify design decisions or workflow improvements.
• Collaborative Spirit: A team player who can work across IT, Marketing, and Sales operations.
• Curiosity: A self-starter eager to learn Adobe Experience Cloud and modern B2B e-commerce trends.
