Oracle UX Internship

I have been an Oracle UX Intern twice between 2022 and 2023. During my first internship, I have worked as a product design intern, contributing to a telecommunications product in the global Customer Experience (CX) team.

In 2023, I have returned to Oracle to intern as a component designer in the Redwood Design System team. I was tasked with designing a new activity component independently.

Duration: 3 months (2022) / 6 months (2023)
Context: Summer Internship / Professional Placement

2023 Internship

Duration: 6 months
Context: Professional Placement

Work as an affiliate designer, bringing the CX product component concept into Redwood Design System team to design a brand new activity component.

Brief

  • I embraced the mindset of designing just enough for an MVP that we can learn from

  • Learning patiently = meaningful improvements based on real feedback

What did I do?

  • I realised what considerations are needed for Design Systems, Implementation as well as Design at Scale

Key Learning

Clear functional distinction between Audit Log and Activity List was needed. Both lists show events chronologically, which led to confusion among product teams. I had to define a new distinction to avoid future confusion and establish the direction for the Activity List component.

Based on research and Redwood Design Strategy, I had to design beyond functionality. It was my job to envision the new Redwood experience around a light activity overview.

Impact

Quote of my Key Learning from 2022: "Design in 70%. ofmy work. Storytelling and sharing the vision is the 30% and is neccessary to get people on board and create impact".

Storytelling and clear vision is key to create designs that have an impact across teams of designers and non-designers.
