We loved having our interns this summer. Visit thumbtack.com/careers to learn more about current open roles and Summer 2023 internship opportunities.

Janice Chow joined our team as a product design intern. “The culture empowered me to put my best work forward. I learned so much from working with talented designers and cross-functional partners. This experience has truly made me a better designer.”

What do sunscreen, sangria and paint have in common? One great afternoon! Some of us were missing Figma (Ctrl + Z, anyone?) and others’ not-so-hidden talents were revealed. (4/5)

Our design org spent a few days together in Santa Cruz as part of Thumbtack’s quarterly IRL offsite events. We came together from all over the country to talk shop, bond face-to-face, and have fun. (1/5)

What if we’ve been tweeting for the past two years, but forgot to press send!? Kidding. We low key got busy, but we’re back now.
