What past design interns say:
"The design team at PlanGrid (acquired by Autodesk) is so talented and welcoming. I was put on challenging projects that let me grow, but also worked closely with more experienced designers that could help me if I needed."

I got to work with - and learn under - not only some of the best designers in the industry, but also with outstanding engineers and PMs. What really set this experience apart for me was how much my manager and team cared about my professional development, as well as my personal well-being. It really made me feel supported in all aspects, right from day 1."
