About TTM

TTM Technologies, Inc. is a leading global manufacturer of technology products, including mission systems, radio frequency (“RF”) components, RF microwave/microelectronic assemblies, and technologically advanced printed circuit boards (“PCB”s).

Additional information can be found at www.ttm.com

Scope:

  • TTM offers summer internships to qualified Chemical and Mechanical Engineering students who are looking to gain professional experience in the field of engineering and manufacturing technology. Internships are designed to help build professional credentials by providing meaningful, practical, on-the-job training and experiences, while also igniting the imagination.

  • Opportunities exist throughout TTM and are available to students who are motivated to learn and grow. Interns will get a chance to contribute ideas and work in an environment that inspires innovative results. Students in the TTM internship program provide tremendous value to the TTM organization through increased productivity, introduction of innovative, fresh ideas and talent, and often become reliable and skilled permanent employees.

  • Intern projects will be geared towards process engineering projects, automation and industry. This includes utilizing robots and machines to improve production, quality, and safety. Interns will not be exclusively focused on data collection or manufacturing execution systems, even though those concepts will be taught and devices will be built and integrated with the connected factory initiative in mind.

  • The TTM Engineering Internship Program is geared toward conscientious Chemical and Mechanical Engineering juniors who are entering their senior year of college. It is a stimulating and rewarding experience, helping the student make the transition from school to work and career while motivating the student for a potential manufacturing, engineering & technology future. Participating in one of our internships is also invaluable in establishing a network within the company.

Duties and Responsibilities:

  • Each internship project selection will include 1 major and 2 minor projects, all deliverable within the summer period of 10-12 weeks.

  • Each intern will be assigned a manager and a mentor/champion to help guide them and serve as a resource for them.

  • Interns will present opening and closing presentations to the site Leadership team.

  • Interns will also present a midway review to select site Leadership.

  • The program offers additional opportunities for professional, career and leadership development through training and team-building activities such as 1-day offsite training, company picnic, softball match, etc.

  • Successful completion of the program may lead to an early offer of employment to candidates upon graduation

Interns will attend one of three courses in May or June focused on cross-facility collaboration, learning different techniques, meeting their fellow interns and will be introduced to Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) in North America.

Interns will practice their presentation skills by presenting to facility leadership three times. The final presentation will be in partnership with facility leadership at the handover briefing. This is an important part of intern development but should not be the only or primary way interns interact with facility personnel. Interns are not graded on their presentation skills; they are evaluated on project completion and potential.

Interns will participate in multiple team-building activities to include Barbecues, Pizza nights, games, etc. as the situation allows. Emphasis should be on quality time with the facility team and interns in a social environment.

All interns will present their facility projects at the TTM summer technology expo in early August to facility and executive leadership.
