🏢 About Noora Health

Noora Health is a non-profit organization that leverages design and technology to improve health outcomes for patients and caregivers in low-resource settings. They focus on creating culturally sensitive, accessible health education materials that empower families to provide better care. Working here means using your design skills for social impact, with a mission-driven team that values innovation and empathy.

About This Role

As a Multi-disciplinary Designer, you will bridge visual communication and UI/UX to create health education materials for diverse audiences, including caregivers and healthcare providers. Your work will directly impact patient well-being by making complex health information clear, engaging, and actionable. This role offers the chance to see your designs make a real difference in communities across India.

💡 A Day in the Life

You might start by reviewing user feedback on a recent health poster, then collaborate with a program manager to refine a mobile app interface for caregivers. After lunch, you could sketch concepts for a new infographic explaining vaccination schedules, and end the day by iterating on a Figma prototype based on input from a health expert. Your work will constantly balance creativity with clarity, ensuring every design serves its educational purpose.
