Front End Software Engineering Intern (Founding team)

About Anavai

We are an early stage Performance-tech startup, building the industry’s first ‘Generative Design Engine’ for Incentives. Current systems are static and backward-looking; we are creating a dynamic, AI-driven model that uses behavioural data to design pay plans & structures (core to this is our Deterministic AI algorithm with polymorphic functionality).

Founded by a seasoned industry professional (with 12+ yrs in HR, Consulting and IT), Anavai’s mission is to unlock top performance by fixing a broken link between productivity, motivation and rewards.

About Role: "The Designer"

This is not a typical "make the website" internship. You will effectively act as a Founding Engineer who develops the user experience & visual identity of Anavai. You will work directly with the founder/ founding team to turn complex backend into an intuitive, user friendly, and market ready product interface.

What you will actually build

MVP front-end and brand website. You will design the interface for our core ‘Incentive Simulator’.

• Translate Algo & Backend to Visuals: take abstract concepts (pay curves, performance thresholds) and design interactive UI components (sliders, toggle switches, graphs) seamlessly linked to the backend.
• End-to-End Frontend: Move fast from wireframes to high-fidelity UI/UX.
• Website development: custom landing pages, visual assets, user-friendly look & feel with clean and relevant placement of sub sections.
• Design infra: component library, typography, palette etc for future scale-up.

You are the right fit if:

• You have a Portfolio: GitHub link to a live project or a website you have built.
• You are a Visual Coder: who understand UI, UX, spacing & typography.
• You Design for Data: visualize a story from complex dashboards & algos.
• You are a go getter: If you see a better way to solve the problem, you don't hesitate.
