The 2026 Production Support Engineering Intern will join our Hardware Engineering team in Indianapolis, IN.

Typical Duties:

The Production Support Engineer Intern will support the hardware engineering department with development of repair and production processes through development of technical work instructions and detailed process guidance, primarily from an electrical perspective. Engineer will assist in process development while supporting upstream design and downstream activities such as hands-on electrical and RF testing and trouble-shooting, electrical assembly and board processing using Surface Mount Technology (SMT) methods, fixturing design, supplier reviews and parts obsolescence resolution, addressing quality issues and other activities based upon the needs of programs. Additionally, this position may advise design engineers on Design for Manufacturing (DFM), provide inputs on scaling manufacturing techniques, and other production-related matters. The environment will be a combination of office, manufacturing floor and test laboratory work.

An example of tasking would be to develop or revise process work instructions to ensure repair personnel have the training, tools, techniques, and steps to test, troubleshoot and repair complex electrical assemblies. Intern will work with engineers and production personnel to understand the problems, address obstacles encountered during assembly and integration, develop solutions and provide recommendations, and appropriately communicate to personnel who would be performing the operations. Continued support of the process would allow for follow-up to capture issues and make iterative improvements to the processes and work instructions, and document lessons learned.

Required Skills:

• Ability to understand and creatively solve complex problems
• Basic MS Office skills (Word, Excel, Powerpoint)
• Experience in technical writing and development of detailed work instructions for assembly and rework operations
• Familiarity with electrical and electromechanical systems
• Ability to read prints and electrical schematics.
• Ability to design/develop Tooling, Fixturing, Jigs, and circuit designs for assembly or testing operations
• Strong scientific aptitude and math skills (linear algebra, trigonometry)
• Must be a US Citizen with ability to pass a criminal background check
• Ability to lift up to 40 lbs.

Desired Experience & Skills:

• Knowledge of configuration management processes
• Experience with Product Data Management (PDM) suites (Windchill preferred) to manage production process documents
• Familiarity with National Industry Standards such as ASME, ASTM, SAE standards, and MIL-STDs in regards to fabrication, assembly, and testing procedures and requirements (Ability to Reference, Interpret, and integrate into detailed work instructions)
• Experience using 3D CAD programs to create drawings from models
• Experience reading and interpreting assembly drawings.
• Knowledge of circuit card design and manufacture
• Familiarity with ASME Y14-series standards (including Y14.5 GD&T)

Education Requirements:

• Currently enrolled in an accredited Engineering or related Science program (preferred concentrations in Electrical Engineering/Technology, Aerospace, Systems, Manufacturing Engineering or related field).
