Apply for this role (opens in a new tab)Intern – Hardware Engineer Intern opportunities in our Hardware function include: Mechanical interns turn ideas into reality by designing and prototyping robotic components while gaining hands-on experience with CAD, SolidWorks, and other technologies that keep our robotics systems running. Electrical interns play a key role in sustaining and enhancing our system by managing cables, troubleshooting power issues, and testing and debugging circuit boards (PCBs).Testing interns will ensure seamless interaction between hardware and software systems through building test fixtures, developing test plans, and conducting root cause analyses. Industrial Controls interns support onsite installations, working hands-on with programmable logic controllers (PLC).
What you'll do:
Assist one of our various Hardware Engineering teams with designing, documenting, building, testing and debugging of the latest technologies and engineering designs.
Design parts for various manufacturing processes, including machining, casting, sheet metal, plastics, and fabricated assemblies using CAD.Assemble electromechanical assemblies, fixtures utilizing hand tools, measurement equipment and machine tools.
Assist in debugging issues with the bot Mechanical and Electro-mechanical systems and components.
Develop and execute robot motion scripts (python) to control single-axis repetitive movements and coordinate complex multi-axis behaviors in support of test requirements.
Create and manage Bills of Materials (BOMs) and Engineering Change Orders (ECOs).Contribute to the design and implementation of PLC hardware and software systems.
Inform reliability test plans to identify failure modes early in development cycles.
Conduct root cause analysis of system failures to support engineering development.
What you'll need:
Currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in engineering required (Systems, Robotics, Mechanical, Electrical, Computer Science, or related engineering/technical field).Familiarity with developing tests for integrated systems with a high degree of hardware and software complexity, preferably robotics or automation. Familiarity with Python. Knowledge of complex electro-mechanical applications including technologies such as robotics, vision, safety-critical systems, multi-axis sensors, localization methods, actuators, and control algorithms. Strong analytical, creative problem solving, critical thinking, and organizational skills. Outstanding communication skills with demonstrated ability to organize and present data. Experience with programmable logic controllers (PLC) a plus Mechanical: Working knowledge of GD&T and other drawing standards. Experience using SolidWorks or equivalent 3D design software. Familiarity with manufacturing processes: machining, casting, sheet metal, plastics, fabricated assemblies, etc. Our Environment: Up to 10% of travel may be required. Employees must have a valid driver's license and the ability to drive and/or fly to client and other customer locations. The employee is responsible for owning a credit card and managing expenses personally to be reimbursed on a bi-weekly basis.
