About Avisi: Avisi’s mission is to restore health and promote vitality. We envision creating a world with accessible, cutting-edge healthcare solutions for everyone. As part of our team, you will be at the forefront of developing a next-generation treatment for glaucoma, the world’s leading cause of irreversible blindness. Avisi is funded by venture capital and grants from the National Science Foundation and the University of Pennsylvania to name a few. We are a member of Johnson & Johnson’s JLABS incubator, a MedTech Innovator Accelerator alumni company, a UCSF Rosenman Innovator alum, and the 2018 recipient of the University of Pennsylvania’s President’s Innovation Prize. 

 

Who you are: You are inspired by our mission and passionate about protecting the vision of glaucoma patients. You are a creative and enthusiastic individual with a passion for web design, social media, digital marketing, and graphic design. You have a keen eye for detail and a knack for storytelling through engaging content. You thrive in a fast-paced environment and are eager to learn and grow in the field of social media marketing. You are adept at staying up-to-date with the latest marketing trends and technologies, and enjoy taking initiative to make a meaningful impact. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with empathy for patients, a passion for innovation, a proven record of accomplishment, and a willingness to learn. 

 

Position Summary: We’re seeking a creative, technically skilled Digital Marketing & Graphic Design Intern to join our team. This role is ideal for someone passionate about combining graphic design, marketing, and web development—especially within a highly regulated, startup healthcare environment. You’ll gain experience with WordPress by building and maintaining branded visual assets, and you’ll learn how to work within the constraints of medical device compliance and regulatory requirements. Avisi’s flagship product VisiPlate is an investigational device, and not yet available for sale, so most objectives will focus around brand and indication awareness and not marketing VisiPlate.
