Protecting What Matters. Powering the Future of Naval Technology.

Your work here has global impact. From developing sonar and radar systems to advancing unmanned and undersea platforms, our technologies empower the U.S. Navy and allied forces to operate in some of the world's most complex environments.

As the maritime and underwater battlespace evolves, we continue to push boundaries-driven by innovation, accountability, and a shared commitment to excellence.

Join us as we shape the future of naval warfare-safeguarding the seas and strengthening navies worldwide.

Nationality Requirements

Due to the nature of the programs we support, certain roles may require candidates to meet U.S. nationality requirements and be eligible to obtain a security clearance.

Position Summary

Mission: Build What Matters. Improve What Counts.

Why This Role Exists

Our mission is simple: deliver precision-built products that perform without failure in high-stakes environments. As a Manufacturing Engineer Intern, you will directly support the systems, processes, and people who make that possible.

This isn't a shadow-and-observe internship. You will contribute to real process improvements, real production challenges, and real operational outcomes.

Job Description

What You'll Do (Impact-Focused)

You will partner with manufacturing engineers, operators, quality, and supply chain to:

Improve production efficiency through data-driven process analysis

Support root cause investigations and implement corrective actions

Assist in developing and refining work instructions and process documentation

Participate in Lean manufacturing initiatives (5S, waste reduction, flow improvements)

Analyze cycle times, tooling effectiveness, and production bottlenecks

Support fixture/tooling design improvements

Contribute to cost-reduction and yield-improvement initiatives

Help implement mistake-proofing and quality controls

You will leave this internship having made measurable improvements.

What Success Looks Like

By the end of your internship, you will have:

Identified and improved at least one production inefficiency

Contributed to a documented process improvement project

Demonstrated ownership of a scoped engineering initiative

Built trust with operators and cross-functional partners

Presented findings and recommendations to engineering leadership

Who Thrives Here

We're looking for interns who are:

Pursuing a degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing, Industrial, or related Engineering field

Analytical and comfortable working with data

Hands-on and curious about how things are built

Comfortable on a production floor (not just behind a desk)

Strong communicators who can translate engineering to operators

Self-directed and energized by solving real problems

Bonus if you have exposure to:

CAD software

Lean / Six Sigma concepts

ERP/MRP systems

Technical drawings & GD&T

The Environment

You will work in a fast-paced manufacturing setting where precision and accountability matter. We operate with high standards, clear expectations, and a team-first mindset.

You won't just learn how things are made - you'll learn how to make them better.
