Ovulai AB is offering an internship for 1 month or longer, within product development of our app for women diagnosed with PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome). The project that the intern will be a part of is tackling the challenges of habit formation connected to the lifestyle changes that the patients with PCOS need to do in order to alleviate their symptoms. We want to explore the psychological methodologies and implement them in our app in order to nudge and motivate the users to form habits in order to see long term results of the lifestyle interventions. The work will entail doing research about habit formation, extracting relevant methods suitable for our app, helping the designers implement it in the app and test with users. The intern will work in a cross functional team with a product manager (supervisor), user experience (UX) designer and a developer remotely or at our office at A-house.
