future meets present is looking for Product Development Intern

Hello! Chances are we like you already.

Future Meets Present is a start-up innovation company that designs sustainable products, systems, and events. Our first product is the Braceletote - a small tote bag that folds up into a bracelet. It’s a handy accessory that’s designed to replace single-use plastic bags during an urban commute. We are utility patent pending and planning to launch our first line in December.

We are looking for a product design intern with experience in textiles and an interest in sustainable fashion. The ideal candidate is excited to work on a solution to address plastic waste, comfortable with the startup process, and ready to bring a product to the world that’s the first of its kind. The goal of this role is to produce a single-unit prototype that satisfies user needs based on feedback.

You’re the right fit if you:

• Can sew single-unit prototypes to hand off to a small batch manufacturer

• Are excited by the iteration process

• Have a user-centered approach to design

• Are keen on supply chain sustainability and ready to source environmentally conscious materials

• Are down to earth, fun-loving, supportive, and collaborative
