About the role:

We are looking for a Materials Intern to support a live project, where he/she will be able to go through the material specification development process and how it interacts with other teams to define/verify/optimize the parts performances requirements meeting the Dyson final product specification. As part of Southeast Asia Technology Development Materials team, you will experience the fast-paced project development process. Working together with other team from across the business as well as material suppliers to ensure the project material readiness deliverables are closed in timely manner and reported to stakeholders.

When you join us as a Materials intern, you will be assigned to support a live project under the lead Material engineer in-charge of that project. You will be expected to participate all meetings with RDD team to go through the PRS review process, to understand how the material specification development process works. Working as part of a larger Material team projects, you will have your own set of material project deliverables and the chance to take ownership of how these material deliverables are achieved. Some of your tasks could include:

• Conceptualizing, developing, and proposing multiple criterion material search scenarios to optimize material selections.

• Developing an analytic and critical thinking mindset in the material datasheet review process.

• Using multiple criterion material search tools and data analysis to help to make the right material selection to address critical part requirements precisely.

• Exposure to many material test methods to verify material performance both in plaques and parts/assembled level.

• Conducting material tests, analysing the data, and proposing appropriate material grades which meet the PRS requirements.

• Identifying materials that address material related problems from Production or Markets.

• Integrate into the day-to-day operation of the team

Our internship programme connects academic theory with practical experience. Gain valuable insights into professional applications through mentorships with our industry-leading experts and exposure to cutting-edge practices. Join us for a transformative journey where theory meets application, guided by the industry’s best minds!
