As an intern on the mechanical engineering team, you will be working on the cutting-edge of production 3D printer manufacturing. You will work side-by-side with experienced engineers across the organization to scope out and own projects that deliver real value to the company. You will design, prototype, and test novel physical solutions for complex, real-world problems that our customers face. Over the course of the summer, you will develop real-world skills in design, fabrication, and vendor relations that are part of a successful mechanical engineer's toolset. 

This role is based in our Redwood City, California office and requires a hybrid at home/in office engagement (Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday in the office).
