2 Designers & 2 UX Reseachers
I started CareerUp as a side project with a group of designers during the rise of LLMs, when AI began reshaping the world. Our goal was to prototype an AI-native product that used the browser as a medium to automate and organize every aspect of a professional's career journey — from job searching and applying to building personalized career memory. The project went on to win the A' Design Award 2024 and earned National Third Place at the UXDA Awards.

CareerUp is an AI-powered coaching platform that streamlines career development, empowering early-stage professionals with user-centric guidance, continuous conversation, efficient tracking, stress-free productivity, job exploration, and application management in a consolidated space.
