At Dimensional Innovations (DI), we’re Designers, Makers, Engineers, Developers, Strategists and Innovators working together to create remarkable experiences, places and products.

Our work lives at the intersection of design, technology and fabrication. From immersive brand experiences and interactive technology to sports venues, museums, corporate environments and destinations, we bring big ideas to life—all under one roof at our Kansas City headquarters.

At DI, an internship isn't about sitting on the sidelines.

Our summer interns become part of the team and have the opportunity to contribute to real client projects alongside professionals in their field. You'll see how ideas move from concept to design, development, fabrication and installation—and how different disciplines come together to create something remarkable.

Throughout the summer, you'll build practical skills, learn from experienced mentors, make connections across DI and leave with meaningful experience you can take back to school and into your career.

You’ll work hard, learn a lot and have some fun along the way.

As a Creative Technology Intern, you'll explore what happens when software leaves the screen and becomes part of a physical experience.

You’ll work alongside DI's Creative Technology team to contribute code to real client projects, build interactive prototypes and experiment with emerging technologies. You'll learn how web applications can communicate with physical hardware like sensors, cameras, interactive displays and lighting systems to create experiences people can see, touch and interact with.

You’ll also have access to DI's fully equipped technology workshop and be paired with an experienced developer who will serve as a mentor throughout the summer.
