Nielsen Norman Group is hiring a UX Design Assistant based in Europe, with an application deadline of May 18, 2026. The role pays 8 to 15 euros per hour depending on location and experience, runs 10 to 30 hours per week, and is fully remote. Applicants must be currently enrolled in a design-related degree program with an expected graduation of December 2027 or later.
The work is concrete: improving the NN/g website in Figma, writing specs for developers, reviewing implemented designs, and building high-fidelity prototypes for usability testing. You need 4 hours of daily overlap with both US Eastern and CET time zones, fluent business English, and working proficiency in Figma. The compensation package includes access to NN/g UX certification training, normally valued at $7,000.
What makes this worth reading in full is the specificity of the timezone requirement and the certification benefit, two details that most job postings bury or omit entirely. If you are a design student in Europe looking for mentored, applied UX work at a research-credible organization, the application form and portfolio submission link are in the original posting.
