  • Join a small, fast-paced team where you will make key design decisions and make a major impact on our future products
  • Prototype and analyze mechanical systems for solutions to product requirements that are relevant to enterprise hardware (e.g., mounting, sealing, environmental resistance, thermal performance, tamper resistance, etc.)
  • Learn what it takes to ship products and collaborate with a cross-functional team (i.e., Electrical Engineers and Industrial Designers)
  • Design parts for mass-manufacturing, including dialing in DFM/DFA, leading validation testing, steering overseas vendor collaboration, and learning about tooling bring-up & part inspection

Requirements

  • Pursuing a degree in Mechanical Engineering or related fields
  • Available for a Summer Co-Op, preferably for an extended term (4-8 months) starting May 2025
  • 2027 Graduation Date
  • Strong understanding & intuition of strength of materials, thermodynamics, and manufacturing
  • Experience with 3D CAD software
  • Experience with rapid prototyping, building, and testing hardware
  • Passion for user-centric design
  • Startup Mindset

What we offer

  • After 90 days of active employment, interns are eligible for medical, dental, and vision insurance. We cover 100% of employee premiums under at least one medical plan and 80% of dependent premiums
