TCL FFalcon Internship

From 09/2020 to 12/2020, I joined TCL FFalcon as an interaction design intern in the Growth Product team. I was responsible for the Live TV software embedded in TCL Roku TVs. I analyzed the market landscape, redefined features based on preliminary data, proposed a new positioning strategy, and remade product demos and specifications. Beyond these, I also modified a few software and hardware integration features, as well as strategic research.
