About Talentix

We are building Talentix, the career mobility platform for healthcare. Our mission is to transform how over five million clinicians in the United States find faster ways to match, get hired, and move forward in their careers. We are not just another job board; Talentix enables career pivots for clinicians by turning their skills and history into clear next-step paths, routing them directly to hiring teams. Join us to whiteboard, build, and ship groundbreaking solutions.

We are seeking builders who move fast, solve complex problems, and consistently deliver results. A perfect resume is not required; if you have a track record of building things, we want to see it.

What You’ll Build

  • Design and refine end-to-end user experiences for critical clinician workflows, including onboarding, dashboards, and job pathways.
  • Create intuitive wireframes, high-fidelity mockups, and interactive prototypes using Figma.
  • Support usability testing initiatives and apply feedback to significantly improve UI flows and user interactions.
  • Work directly and collaboratively with product managers and engineers to translate innovative ideas into shipped features.
  • Contribute actively to live product sprints—engaging in whiteboard sessions, iterating rapidly, and launching features in real-time.

Who You Are

  • Design-Minded: You approach design by thinking in systems, not just individual screens, with a strong focus on clarity, flow, and usability.
  • Product-Driven: You consistently ask “why” before “how,” ensuring your designs are outcome-oriented rather than solely aesthetic.
  • Builder Energy: You move quickly, adeptly simplify complex UX problems, and are driven to make conceptual ideas into tangible realities.
  • Collaborative: You thrive in dynamic, live, in-person design sessions, preferring direct interaction over asynchronous handoffs.

What You Bring

  • 0.5–1 year of hands-on or academic design experience (demonstrated through projects, previous internships, or relevant coursework).
  • Strong command of Figma and familiarity with the Adobe Creative Suite.
  • Mandatory: Prior exposure to or hands-on use of MCP (Model Context Protocol), Cursor, or Claude for design or prototyping workflows.
  • A robust portfolio showcasing design systems, UX thinking, and product prototypes.
  • Comfort and adaptability working in an early-stage, fast-moving team environment.
  • Must be able to work on-site in Fremont, CA, and available for immediate joining.
  • Must accept the terms of an unpaid internship with clear potential for full-time conversion.

Why You Should Join

  • Move Fast, Together: Our on-site model fosters rapid collaboration and innovation, because whiteboards > Slack.
  • Path to Full-Time: This unpaid internship offers a clear potential for full-time employment + equity within 90 days, based on performance and company needs.
  • Be Here When We Break Out: Join us at a critical early stage; significant perks and growth opportunities follow momentum.
  • Work With Top Talent: Collaborate directly with builders from prestigious institutions like Carnegie Mellon, UCSD, UCLA, Stanford, and more.
  • E-Verified Employer: Partnered with leading universities such as UC Berkeley and Santa Clara, often enabling students to earn course credit through participation.
  • Backed by an impressive network of builders, operators, and founders who have successfully scaled companies.
