  • Create tickets, provide feedback, and debug software, process, and hardware issues

Requirements:

  • You are adaptable and excel when working in a fast-paced environment

  • Enjoy the gritty details of part design, material selection, and drawing

  • Past industry co-ops or internships strongly desired

  • Pursuing a degree in Mechanical, Industrial, or Manufacturing Engineering

  • Experience with rapid prototyping: 3D printing, mill, lathe, laser cutting, hand tools

  • SolidWorks, and experience making and modifying 2D Drawings
