MEET ME
Jakob Schnurrer
Hi, my name is Jakob Schnurrer,
I'm a 19-year-old Designer, and Artist from Graz, Austria.
My passion for art and design took off in high school and since then I wanted
to work in the design industry.
Since 2021 I am working as a Freelancer alongside my studies at FH JOANNEUM
and I have gained some experience as a professional designer.
If I would have to describe myself in five words, those would be:
friendly, team player, chaotic, curious & reliable.
UX Internship
04.2024 – 06.2024
During my 6th and last Semester at FH JOANNEUM, I did an Internship at Intact GmbH.
Intact provides software as a service, that powers audits, certification and standards globally. It supports companies like TÜV or MSC (Marine Stewardship Council)
to manage communication, business goals, and personnel with a full solution approach.
I worked at Intact for three months and helped to create the companies design system "ZEUS". I created the Figma components,
that are going to be used in future screen design concepts, wrote docomentation for the use of said components and created the
visual design of ZEUS itself.
Semester Abroad
09.2023 – 01.2024
During my 5th Semester at FH JOANNEUM, I went abroad to Belgium for five months.
I studied "Creative Technologies and Entrepreneurship", met a lot of new people from all over the world, made new friends, took part in an international exchange of ideas
brought my productivity and creativity to a new level and of course went out of my comfortzone to experience something truly special.
If I have the option, I will do it again!
FH JOANNEUM

Scout Ranger
09.2021 – now
Since september 2021 I am voluntray participating in the scout group "Graz 11".
Every week my team of rangers and I come together to plan a two hour session for kids aged from seven to ten years old.
This could be a creative drawing session, a game in the forest or talking to the kids about how to avoid creating too much trash.
