*About SourceIQ *

SourceIQ is an AI-native supplier intelligence and sourcing platform helping enterprises discover, evaluate, engage, and manage suppliers through one governed system.

We’re building our brand and product from the ground up and need creative, detail-oriented designers to help us translate complex ideas in AI, procurement, supplier intelligence, and enterprise technology into compelling visual stories.

We’re looking for a Visual & Motion Design Intern who is especially strong in Adobe Creative Suite and excited about graphic design, video editing, motion graphics, presentation design, and visual storytelling.

You’ll work closely with SourceIQ’s Head of Design, CEO, and marketing/product teams to translate our mission and product into visual stories that connect with enterprise procurement teams, suppliers, and industry stakeholders.
