UI/UX Design Intern

Own: Well-scoped design tasks across research, wireframes, and UI screens, under close mentorship, growing into owning full flows

About ADOSX

The future of automotive retail will not be software-enabled—it will be intelligence-driven and increasingly autonomous. ADOSX is building a world-class AI-native operating system for automotive retail in India, combining agentic workflows, unified data platforms, and real-time intelligence into a single platform that helps auto-retail operate smarter, faster, and more profitably.

We’re currently a four-member founding team—working directly with customers and building from idea to MVP. Backed by strategic investors from the automotive dealership ecosystem, our ambition is to redefine auto-tech space in the next five years.

"This is not a 9-to-5 job. This is a builder's journey."

Joining ADOSX is closer to building a company than joining one. You’ll work directly with founders, own products end-to-end, and experience both the 0→1 and 1→100 journeys while helping shape technology, culture, and customer outcomes.

We believe in high ownership, customer obsession, curiosity, bias for action, and having the courage to challenge assumptions. We value builders over titles and outcomes over hierarchy.

"The truth is that early-stage startups are hard."

There will be ambiguity, rapid change, and uncomfortable challenges. But there will also be extraordinary learning, genuine ownership, and the opportunity to create something that outlasts us.

"Many people learn more in two years at a company like ADOSX than in ten years elsewhere."

If you want to help redefine how an entire industry operates, we’d love to build ADOSX together.

The Role

This internship is designed for people who love building. You are early in your design career and here to learn fast on a real, hard product used inside actual Auto-Retail.

You’ll take well-defined design tasks—a screen, a component, a user flow, a set of states—and deliver them well, with the architect or product lead guiding you. You are expected to use AI design and prototyping tools from day one to move faster, while learning to judge what looks right, what feels right, and what a dealership user actually needs.

Over time you grow into owning whole flows end to end.

What you'll own

Design well-scoped screens: Wireframes, mockups, and high-fidelity UI for React and Next.js screens, within the design system and patterns the architect sets.

Work close to real users: Sit in on customer conversations and dealership visits where possible, and translate messy operational reality into interfaces that are simple to use under pressure.

Build and maintain design consistency: Contribute to and follow a shared component library and design system so the product feels like one product, not many.

Use AI tools well: Lean on AI design assistants (Figma AI, image/prototyping tools, etc.) to move faster, but learn to critique and refine what they produce rather than shipping it blindly.

Prototype and test: Build clickable prototypes for internal review and, where possible, quick usability checks with real dealership staff.

What we're looking for

Foundations in UI/UX: Some experience with Figma (or similar tools), from coursework, internships, personal projects, or self-teaching. We care how you think, not your years.

An eye for detail: You notice inconsistent spacing, unclear hierarchy, and confusing flows before anyone points them out.

Already using AI tools: You use AI tools in your design process and are keen to get sharper at directing and evaluating them.

Care about the user: You ask why before you design, and you’d rather validate an assumption than guess.

Fast learner, low ego: You take feedback well, study product you didn’t design to understand it, and are not afraid to say “I don’t know that yet.”

Nice to have

Basic HTML/CSS understanding, exposure to design systems, or any front-end curiosity.

A portfolio (even a student one) showing the process, not just final screens.

Curiosity about B2B or enterprise software, and how it differs from consumer design.

You'll Thrive Here If

You love ambiguity more than certainty.

You prefer ownership over instructions.

You think in flows and systems, not just screens.

You enjoy getting your hands dirty with customers.

You learn by building rather than waiting.

You want to see your designs shipped, not shelved.

The Hard Truth

Early-stage startups are hard. There will be ambiguity, changing priorities, and periods of intense execution because building from zero demands it. But you’ll own UI/UX designs end-to-end, work directly with founders and customers, and likely learn more in two years than many designers do in five years.

If designing the intelligence layer for Indian automotive retail excites you more than maintaining systems someone else designed, we’d love to build ADOSX together.
