Product Design Intern - Customer Adoption
ABOUT VTS
VTS is changing the way that commercial real estate (CRE) is done—disrupting a $15 trillion industry by becoming the modern operating system for CRE. We invented the category of leasing and asset management, which allows landlords and brokers to take their entire leasing process online to maximize revenue and performance. Last year, we launched the fastest adopted new product in proptech, VTS Market. Rise Buildings by VTS is leading an entirely new category of software - tenant experience. We also recently launched VTS Data, already getting front-page references in the Wall Street Journal and quoted by Reuters, The Real Deal, Commercial Observer, and many more. Our success shows in our numbers—we hit "Unicorn" status in 2019 and today we have over 12 billion square feet of commercial space managed on VTS on 80,000 buildings in 34 countries, and we’ve expanded to over 400 employees globally. It’s an exciting time to join the VTS team as we continue to grow rapidly and break records.
Our headquarters are in NYC, but we have major hubs in other cities including Chicago, IL, Toronto, CA, and London, UK.

About the Internship

Product Designers at VTS are expected to tackle workflow, communication, and data visualization tools across web and mobile platforms, and must effectively collaborate with product management on research initiatives, present their work in group settings, and exercise leadership in their role and interactions with colleagues.
The VTS Summer Intern Program is from June 7th through August 13th, 40 hours a week with a competitive compensation rate. Due to the nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, this internship program will likely be a hybrid of in-person and remote.
