Why this role works for early-career designers:
What is the Role?
We’re looking for a Product Design Apprentice to support our designer team throughout the zero-to-one venture building process.
You’ll be exposed to user research, design thinking, and UX/UI design, gradually taking on more ownership as your skills and confidence grow. Whether you’re a fresh graduate or an experienced junior, the role adapts to your starting point — but the expectations to learn fast stay high.

Product Design Apprentice
Singapore
Skip the coffee runs…
Calling early-career Product Designers who are ready to move beyond theory, templates, and “safe” problems. This isn’t just a junior role — it’s a launchpad into real product work across real industries.
Okay… We Know What You’re Thinking: So What?
You might be a fresh graduate breaking into product design. Or a junior designer from an agency, startup, or in-house team looking for deeper exposure and faster growth. Either way, you’re hungry to understand how products actually get built — from identifying user problems to shaping concepts that become real businesses.
With our 1-year Product Design Apprenticeship, you’ll get hands-on experience designing products from zero to one. You’ll work alongside experienced designers and venture teams, learning how user research, design thinking, and UX/UI come together in early-stage environments.
This role is designed for designers who are curious, adaptable, and excited to explore different industries before locking into a single path.
Alright, Alright, Let’s Get to the Good Stuff – Here’s What’s in It for You
This isn’t a passive learning program. It’s a high-exposure, high-support environment where you’ll grow quickly by doing meaningful work.
