Engineering Intern – Mechanical, Aerospace

Maglev is looking for fast-paced enthusiastic motivated and collaborative interns who have a drive to learn and will specialize in mechanical and aerospace engineering. Theywill work under the direction of a lead engineer to develop and implement project deliverables. Project sizes will vary and will consist primarily of mechanical and aerospace engineering projects. 

Responsibilities: 

• CAD Design & Modeling: Utilize Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software (e.g. SolidWorks Fusion 360 Onshape) to create and modify detailed 3D models and engineering drawings for mechanical components and assemblies. 

• Rapid Prototyping Execution: Operate and maintain 3D printers (FDM SLA etc.) and other rapid prototyping tools to quickly fabricate components for design validation and testing. 

• Testing & Iteration: Design and execute physical testing plans to validate the performance strength and fit of prototype components driving necessary design revisions based on empirical data. 

• Assembly & Integration: Assist in the hands-on assembly alignment and mechanical integration of complex systems and subsystems. 

• Documentation: Maintain organized files of all CAD models revisions and detailed documentation for prototypes and final designs. 

Qualifications :

• Academic Background: Currently pursuing a degree in Mechanical Engineering Aerospace Engineering or a closely related technical field.  

• Proven experienced in at least one industry-standard CAD software package. 

• Hands-On Prototyping: Extensive demonstrable experience operating and troubleshooting various 3D printing technologies (understanding materials slicing and print optimization).  

• Prior involvement in rapid design and build projects especially those requiring quick iteration and hands-on problem solving 

• Mechanical Aptitude: Strong understanding of fundamental mechanical principles (statics dynamics material science) and practical skills using basic shop tools. 

• Blueprint Reading: Ability to read and interpret complex engineering drawings and apply geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) concepts.  

• Experience in university or competitive engineering teams such as SAE Aero SAE Auto Formula SAE Design Build Fly AIAA competitions or similar 

Bonus:  

Finite Element Analysis (FEA): Prior exposure to or experience using FEA tools (e.g. ANSYS SolidWorks Simulation) to analyze stress strain and vibrational characteristics of components is a significant advantage.
