About us
As a product design intern at Carsome, you'll be part of a team of 7. The Product Design(PD) team reports directly to the CTO at the same level as engineering and product management, giving PD a real seat at the table. Our favourite question is "why" as we always push initiatives to be meaningful to the users we serve. The culture of our team values mental health, safe space, sharing and inclusivity and we are all about supporting each other.
