• Our content design/UX writing team supports virtually all projects that are designed and developed within the Product & Technology organization, ranging from the Spectrum TV App (on all platforms), Spectrum Guide, the My Spectrum app and web portals (Spectrum.net, SpectrumBusiness.net) to internal tools like TechMobile, Panorama and Gateway. The Content Design/UX Writing intern will spend each week working on a different product, mentored by a different member of the team each week, to thereby gain as broad an experience as possible working across all of our products and projects.
