About the Role

We’re looking for a Visual Design Intern who can bring craft, taste, and a strong sense of direction to Paytm’s visual language - someone who thinks beyond a single polished screen and can translate everyday, utility-first product moments into visuals that feel considered and unmistakably Paytm. You’ll work on illustration, iconography, and visual systems for product surfaces used at scale - sourcing references, building a point of view, and executing that direction with craft, alongside designers and stakeholders across the team. Throughout the internship, you’ll have a dedicated design mentor, participate in design critiques, and learn how a considered visual direction gets built, defended, and scaled across a product.
