International creative agency is seeking students who are future creative technologists at the intersection of digital and physical.

The position sits between marketing and product production of real objects. You are a hybrid of design and hardware.

Your vast knowledge and excitement for technology will complement our creative ideas and elevate our work. You're not just a creative thinker though, you also love tinkering and figuring out how to make ideas into realities.

About the Project:

We have a slightly different opportunity here. We take a hardware approach to innovation within the field of marketing. We want to create visually compelling projects that entice people to engage with our company.

Our company connects startups with corporations and we want to show that we innovate internally and externally. This is a chance to work with a variety of technologies to produce something creative and engaging. Interested?
