Mechanical Design Intern

About us

Dyson is a global technology enterprise.  We solve the problems others choose to ignore, with surprising new inventions that defy convention and simply work better. We’re driven by progress and thrive on the challenge of relentless improvement.  We’re growing fast and our ambition is huge – more categories, more locations and more people.

Our scale and rapid growth make Dyson rich in new opportunities. We value new ideas and diverse perspectives, so our people are trusted with real work and responsibility from the outset.  You’ll develop fast and have the chance to move into different business areas and regions.  And you’ll be part of a global network of like-minded people – a community that supports and learns from each other.

Power Systems is a global function that designs and develops Dyson’s internal technologies that enable most of our products. The team has experts in wide range of areas (mechanical, electrical, software, project management) and is responsible of the development from early stages through to production.

Mechanical Design team within Power Systems is responsible for design, build process, sample building, analysis, and experimental validation and verification of mechanical robustness and reliability of Dyson technologies.

Dyson offers a unique opportunity for talented individuals to develop our advanced Dyson Hyperdimium Motors technology. Manufactured in-house, at an automated production facility, these motors are used exclusively in our market leading products to give us a key advantage in the global market.

By working in our world class Research, Design and Development department, Interns have the opportunity to work alongside leading technical specialists and highly motivated creative people, to develop and support unique, high technology motors from a prototype stage through to mass production.

About the role

We are looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer Intern, and some of your trainings could include:

• Work alongside with global RDD teams (simulation/electronic/mechanical/automation engineers) for realisation of new Dyson technologies into the final production design, ensuring product performance, reliability and cost expectations are met.

• Contribute to the implementation of design concepts from component design through to finished assembly. This would include 3D CAD Modelling, drawing, analysis, dimensional verification, and general demonstration of the use of core engineering disciplines.

• Assist in the development of design concepts through prototype hardware procurement, assembly, testing, data analysis, fault analysis, problem solving, and design refinement. This may require some direction of technical support personnel.

• Learn and apply established Dyson methodology, good engineering practice & discipline to develop robust solutions within set timeframes. This includes gaining experience with tools and techniques such as but not limited to Tolerance Stack Analysis, Process Capability (Cpk), DFMEA, Minitab, etc.

• Support the creation and upkeep of design documentation such as drawings, Bill of Material, limit test reports timely.

• Assist in facilitating communication between all relevant teams, both internal and external, to ensure timely and effective collaboration and input.

• Support in Engineering Change such as, making 3D/2D & BOM changes/creation/review with strong justification; liaise with Manufacturing & Production to ensure smooth implementation.

• Liaise with our In-house Manufacturing Team for engineering evaluations or special builds in support of productivity/quality improvement projects or cost reduction initiatives such as alternative parts/suppliers, engineering redesign, etc.

• Gain hands-on approach in motor build prototyping and using basic measurement equipment, including ability to design required jig and fixture setup, and Proof of Principle machine evaluation and buy-off.

• Support additional activities as assigned or directed to contribute to project goals.  Aid in the delivery of product-focused technology projects aligned with Dyson’s range plan while developing technical skills and understanding.

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!

About you

Our internship roles are competitive and delivering the next generation of Dyson technology is tough, so you will need to be:
