Your Role
As a Mechanical Engineering Intern, you will take charge of the mechanical design for large-scale industrial systems while maintaining a comprehensive perspective across mechanical, electrical, and controls disciplines. You will thrive in a dynamic startup environment, embracing challenges from inception to completion, and building robust machines that excel in real-world conditions.
You will manage projects from concept to field deployment: designing, analyzing, fabricating, and testing large robotic systems that withstand the harshest environments. Expect to engage directly in hands-on tasks, spending significant time in both the factory and the field alongside technicians and operators.
