2026 Manufacturing Engineer Intern

• Description
• The
• _Manufacturing Engineer Intern_
• will join our Hardware Engineering team in Indianapolis, IN,

• Typical Duties:

• The Manufacturing Engineering Intern will support metal fabrication and mechanical assembly operations by generating work instructions and resolving production issues through hands-on support.

The engineer will participate in a multi-week rotations that introduces the intern to the numerous facets of manufacturing engineering and design engineering. During these rotations, the intern will learn and support the development of production processes and industrial engineering (including ergonomics and safety in manufacturing, and metal fabrication processes); design and development of fixturing, jigs, gages, and tooling; quality control and continuous improvement, and Design for Manufacturing (DFM), and an introduction to Additive Manufacturing (AM)(FDM/FFF process).

• An example of tasking would be as follows:
• Interns will learn to assess manufacturability based on engineering print reviews.

They will then support & develop production operation sequences for component-level fabrication or generate work instructions for assembly operations. They may conduct time studies for process refinement and continuous improvement, and support resolution of issues arising during ongoing production processes. Interns may design/develop fixturing and support the development of tooling. Interns may support Industrial Engineering projects through CAD layout revisions and/or conduct coordination across cross-functional or interdepartmental teams. Interns may also be assigned administrative tasks that support growth and learning through familiarization of manufacturing processes and support functions—such as updating tooling records, operating procedures, and supporting Change Management functions. Additionally, Manufacturing Engineering intern may also shadow some design engineers for a short rotation to learn design principles and processes, and to learn the transition process from design to production.
