The Role
Hands-on internship to design, build, and test mechanical systems and fixtures for a digital foundry. Responsibilities include resin 3D printing and part processing, rapid CAD-to-fabrication prototyping, machining/fabrication and tolerancing work, thermal/structural analysis, multidisciplinary troubleshooting, and contributing to tooling, fixtures, and automation hardware.
Summary Generated by Built In

Fabri is a funded hard-tech startup reimagining how foundries operate—from raw material to finished part—through a fully digital, end-to-end system. This summer, we're opening the doors to a hands-on builder who wants more than just another internship.

If you're the kind of person who would rather prototype than theorize, turn a wrench instead of defer, and see your work running on real equipment—not just in CAD—this role is for you.

As a Mechanical Engineering Intern, you'll join a tight-knit engineering team working on Phase 1 of our digital foundry. You won't be sidelined—you'll help design, build, and refine the systems that make it all work.

What You'll Actually Do

  1. Design and build mechanical systems and fixtures that operate in a real foundry environment

  2. Print and process production and development parts at Fabri's resin print farm.

  3. Rapidly move from concept → CAD → fabrication → test (and iterate just as fast)

  4. Work with machining, fabrication, tolerancing, and thermal/structural analysis—often on problems you haven't seen before

  5. Troubleshoot across disciplines: mechanical, thermal, and process-related

  6. Contribute directly to the tooling, fixtures, and automation hardware that are core to Fabri's platform

What Makes This Different

  • Your work won't sit in a demo bin—it'll be used

  • You'll have real ownership, not just tasks

  • You'll learn by doing, not by watching

  • You'll be surrounded by people who build fast and expect the same

What We're Looking For

  • Current student or recent graduate in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing, Robotics, or a related field

  • Experience running resin 3D printers

  • Strong hands-on experience designing and building mechanical systems

  • CAD proficiency (SolidWorks, Fusion, or similar) and solid general computing skills

  • Shop experience (machining, welding, fabrication) is a plus

  • Curiosity, initiative, and a bias toward action

Details

📍 On-site: 35 Dunham Road, Billerica, MA 💰 Paid internship (Summer 2026)

Due to ITAR regulations, candidates must be U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents.

This is a chance to step into a real engineering environment, contribute to systems that matter, and leave the summer with experience you can actually point to—and explain.

If that sounds like your kind of challenge, apply.
