Research, Design and Development (RDD) is Dyson's engine room. It’s where our engineers challenge convention, build, test, fail, refine, and then fail again - all to invent technology that solves problems that others ignore. Join us as an intern and from day one you’ll be assigned to a live project with the chance to have a meaningful impact on the evolution of Dyson technology.
In Malaysia Technology Development team, you will experience the fast-paced project handling process. The Functional Teams consist of multiple disciplines - Pickup Systems, Filtration & Separation Systems, Acoustic and Vibration, Simulation and Fluids Dynamics team. In functional teams, we ensure project deliverables in each discipline are closed in timely manner and reported to stakeholders.
As an intern, you’ll be assigned to a project team from day one. You’ll be expected to hit the ground running on one of Dyson’s many live projects. Working as part of a larger project team, you’ll have your own set of project deliverables and the chance to take ownership of how these are achieved. Some of your tasks could include:
Conceptualising, developing and proposing design changes to optimize product performance
Creating analytic tools and/or models that could help to make analysis lean or solve specific problems
Exposure to different test methods to verify product’s performance and systems engineering approach used in technology development team
Gather available data and analyse to find out root cause of problems and solve the problem
Integrate into the day-to-day operation of the team
Working at the forefront of technology is tough so standards and expectations are high. You’ll be contributing to live projects from the start, so you’ll need to be curious, hungry to learn and ready to get stuck in. But it’s not just about technical expertise. Our internships are competitive and delivering the next generation of Dyson technology is tough, so you’ll need to:
Able to start in January or February 2026
On track for 2nd upper class honours or above and be studying towards a Mechanical, Aerospace, Design Engineering, Mechatronics or related discipline
Able to commit for at least 12 weeks
Able to evidence how you have applied your technical knowledge to solve problems, either through your university projects or as part of your extra-curricular activities
Happy to build your own networks to learn from the technical expertise around you
Creative in your approach to problem solving to ensure our machines are better
Passionate about Dyson and our technology to help us meet our ambitious future plans
Above all, you’ll want to play a key part in bringing the next generation of Dyson technology to the world.
Working for usJoin our internship programme to jumpstart your career. We look to offer selected high-performing interns an opportunity to return on our graduate programme.

What We Do
At Dyson we are focused on solving the problems that others have ignored; solving them first using our technology and ingenuity. In order to achieve this we need to pioneer technologies that are different and authentic. This is the core of what we do and who we are. We must strive to create the future, every single day by developing new things, different things, things that go against the grain with a diverse and global team of ingenious minds.
Dyson employs over 14,000 people and is present in more than 80 countries. And while we are growing fast we want Dyson to remain a start-up in spirit with the freedom of experimentation and learning, constantly reinventing our products as well as reinventing how we work, how we sell and how we support our owners. At the same time we are working through the James Dyson Foundation, James Dyson Award and Dyson Institute to inspire future engineers and pioneering a new approach to engineering education.
Underlining everything we do in this diverse environment is the need to always show respect, supporting each other as one team to overcome whatever challenges we encounter. We drive empowerment, development and equality in an inclusive environment for our people around the world.
The future doesn’t just happen, we look to make it happen, to achieve leaps through pioneering new ideas
