About Rheo
Rheo is reimagining what TV can and should be. Listed by Apple as one of the Best New Apps of 2017, Rheo is the best way to watch, discover and react to great short videos. It’s TV for the swipe generation – curating the best short-form videos into a single personalized stream of video that you can watch or skip. The more they watch, the better Rheo gets at giving users more of the video they love.
Rheo is also a social video platform that allows users to record their own reactions to videos that their friends will see when they watch Rheo. We believe that we can make the world a better place by connecting people with the best content on the internet in an experience that is positive, fun and inherently social.
Rheo is looking for a Product Design Intern to join their product team! The Product Design Intern will work directly with our Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer Charles Migos, who most recently led design for Apple News and iBooks while at Apple.
The Product Design Intern will be involved in every aspect of the product development process, from brainstorming the next feature of Rheo to tweaking pixels right before launch. The intern will be expected to utilize a full range of product design, interaction design, and visual design skills, and have ownership over pieces of the Rheo experience.
