Education
In today's fast-paced educational environment, students often feel overwhelmed and isolated in their learning journeys. We aim to develop a feature that connects learners with ‘Learning Buddies’ — peers who can support each other academically and socially. This will foster a community-driven approach to learning where collaboration and motivation thrive.
As a Design Engineer, you will play a key role in prototyping interactions and ensuring seamless integration of this new feature within our educational platform.

What to Deliver
Friendly Boundaries
- The prototype must be functional and visually engaging, balancing aesthetics and usability.
- Focus on a maximum of three core user flows to keep the scope manageable.
- Ensure the design is inclusive, catering to users with different learning styles.
Skills in Play
- Prototyping with design tools (e.g., Figma, Sketch).
- Creating user flow diagrams and wireframes.
- Collaborative design thinking and user experience strategies.
What We’re Looking For: Success will be measured by the prototype's usability, creativity in engaging users, adherence to the outlined constraints, and alignment with the goal of fostering collaboration among learners.
