Manufacturing Test Engineering Intern

About the role#

As a Manufacturing Test Engineering Intern, you will help design, develop, and maintain test systems that ensure robotic products meet manufacturing and quality standards. You will work with cross-functional teams, including hardware design, controls, and quality, to improve test coverage, optimize workflows, and support production operations. This role involves hands-on experience with robotics hardware, electronics testing, data acquisition, and system validation.

What you'll do#

• Assist in the design, implementation, and validation of automated and manual test systems for robotic systems and subsystems.
• Develop and maintain hardware and software tools for production testing.
• Perform root cause analysis on test failures and collaborate with engineering teams to drive corrective actions.
• Document test procedures, configuration, and calibration steps.
• Support the deployment and troubleshooting of test stations on the production floor.
• Train personnel on system-level testing and the operation of automated testers.
• Collect, analyze, and report test data to track manufacturing performance metrics.

What you'll need#
