Anheuser-Busch InBev – UI/UX Design Internship

Anheuser-Busch InBev – UI/UX Design Internship

During my internship at Anheuser-Busch InBev, I was responsible for designing internal and external-facing websites to streamline communication and enhance user engagement. I worked closely with cross-functional teams, including HR, Marketing, and IT, to understand stakeholder needs and translate them into intuitive web experiences.


My role included conducting user research, usability testing, creating wireframes and high-fidelity mockups, and ensuring brand consistency across all deliverables.

WHAT WAS THE SCENARIO?

One of my first projects at AB InBev was to design a webpage for their Global Capability Center (GAC) to be included in the What we do section of the AB InBev India website. At the time, there was no digital presence for GAC on the company website, and the brief was pretty open-ended

“We want a page that captures who we are and what we do.”

It was exciting, but also a little overwhelming — there was a lot to figure out.

Figuring out the Structure

How did I approach the brief?

To get started, I ran a short internal survey (12 people responded) and spoke to a few stakeholders from the GAC team to understand what mattered most.

What did the users want?

Finding 1

highlight their different teams (commercial, non-commercial, etc)

Finding 2

showcase awards like the NASSCOM GCC win

Finding 3

give people a sense of the culture

WHat else did I do?

I did some light SEO research using SEMrush and Google Search to look at what kinds of phrases people were using to search for similar pages

“capability center Bangalore”

“AB InBev tech careers.”

Structuring the Story

Creating the information Architecture

GAC's Mission and Impact

Team Overviews

Awards & Recognition

Company Culture and Events

Careers & Call-to-Action

This structure was shared and approved after a quick collaborative session with the content and brand teams.

Next steps

Exploring layouts using with wireframes

Next, I developed two low-fidelity wireframes to explore different layout approaches — one with a modular grid, and another using a more narrative scroll-based layout. After a design critique with the internal design team, we opted for the modular approach to better support frequent updates and future scalability.

Why did we choose version 2?

Progressive Disclosure & Visual Hierarchy

This layout follows a top-down visual hierarchy, easing users into deeper layers of content in a structured, digestible way.

WHAT WAS THE SCENARIO?

The Learning & Development (L&D) team at AB InBev India needed a centralized website where employees across all levels—new hires to senior managers—could easily discover learning resources, growth pathways, and skill development programs.

“We need a platform that helps employees find what’s relevant to them, based on where they are in their journey”

My Role

A summary of my role

As the UX Designer on this cross-functional team, I collaborated closely with a UX Researcher and developers throughout the end-to-end process. My responsibilities included:


Conducting competitive analysis of top internal learning tools

Pitching layout and content ideas with references from modern learning platforms

Collaborating with the L&D team to evolve their initial outline into a richer, more user-friendly content plan

Leading design discussions and iterating through stakeholder feedback

Mapping out the user flow and structuring a detailed information architecture

Creating low-fidelity wireframes for design exploration

Delivering high-fidelity UI aligned with AB InBev’s brand and development constraints

Discovery & Research

How did I approach the brief?

Analyzed the internal structure of existing L&D tools

Identified patterns in how employees access learning material

I reviewed 5+ comparable learning platforms

Highlighted features that streamlined user experience or enhanced content discovery

Defining Structure

Using the outline by the L&D team, I identified gaps

Pitched additional modules—such as role-based learning tracks, spotlight stories, and curated resources for leadership growth

After back and forth with the stakeholder, we agreed upon a user centered structure, categorizing the content into three core audiences:

New to Company

Individual Contributors

Managers & Leaders

User Flow

Mapping out the golden path

THe flow was developed to minimize cognitive load and allow users to access relevant content within 2-3 clicks. The final Information architecture focused on progressive disclosure, highlighting key resources while keeping the interface uncluttered.

Design Decision

Why did we Move forward with version 2?

Clarity through Categorization

All six learning categories are visible at once, making content easier to browse. This reduces cognitive load

Scannable Grid Improves Discoverability

A two-row layout improves visual scanning and quick access

Inclusive for All Users

Supports both new joiners and experienced employees offering self-service exploration without needing to identify

Better Content Hierarchy

The layout maintains a strong content hierarchy, starting with an inspirational message and immediately followed by actionable categories

Recognition Over Recall

By presenting all learning categories upfront, users don’t have to remember what role or track they belong to—they simply choose what looks relevant to them.

Design is negotiation. The final product is rarely your first idea. It’s the result of asking better questions, listening carefully, and adapting with purpose.

Structure matters as much as style. A clean UI means nothing if users can’t find what they’re looking for

Collaboration shapes better outcomes – Frequent check-ins with the L&D team, researcher, and devs helped refine both scope and usability
