  • Prepare and maintain technical documentation: test protocols, data collection, test reports and design change recommendations.
  • Perform basic data analysis and support finite element or tolerance analysis activities when required.
  • Coordinate with prototype suppliers and external test service providers (quoting, sample delivery, technical clarifications).
  • Support cross‑functional activities with Manufacturing, Quality and Regulatory teams for technical reviews and audits.

Requirements

  • Commit to a full‑time (5 days/week) internship for at least 4 consecutive months.
  • Proactive, ownership mindset with strong drive for project delivery and personal growth.
