Development Engineer Intern information

What does a development engineer intern do?

A Development Engineer Intern assists engineering teams in designing, developing, and testing new products or systems. Their tasks may include conducting research, creating prototypes, performing experiments, analyzing data, and helping solve technical problems. Interns often work under the supervision of experienced engineers and collaborate with other team members to gain hands-on experience. The goal is to learn industry practices and contribute to ongoing engineering projects. This role helps interns build practical skills and prepare for a future engineering career.

What types of projects and tasks can a development engineer intern expect to work on during their internship?

As a Development Engineer Intern, you can expect to work on a variety of hands-on projects that support the design, development, and testing of new products or features. Typical tasks may include assisting with prototype development, running experiments, analyzing test data, and collaborating with cross-functional teams such as design, manufacturing, and quality assurance. Interns often participate in team meetings, contribute ideas, and gain exposure to the full product development lifecycle. This experience provides valuable insights into engineering processes and helps build both technical and teamwork skills.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a development engineer intern, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Development Engineer Intern, you typically need a solid background in engineering fundamentals, problem-solving abilities, and enrollment in or completion of a relevant engineering degree program. Familiarity with CAD software, programming languages (like Python or C++), and version control systems such as Git are commonly required. Strong communication, teamwork, and a willingness to learn are essential soft skills for success in collaborative and fast-paced environments. These skills and qualities enable interns to contribute effectively to projects, adapt quickly, and gain valuable practical experience.

Job description

This announcement is being advertised as a Forest Service National Hiring effort to fill multiple vacancies. Positions may be filled at one or more of the duty locations included in this announcement. Final determination of the duty location will be made at the time of the job offer.
?For additional information about the duties of this position, please contact Benjamin Gray at Benjamin.gray2@usda.gov.Qualifications:In order to qualify, you must meet the eligibility and qualifications requirements as defined below by the closing date of the announcement. For more information on the qualifications for this position, visit the Office of Personnel Management's General Schedule Qualification Standards.
Your application and resume must clearly show that you possess the experience requirements. Transcripts must be provided for qualifications based on education. Provide course descriptions as necessary.

Basic Requirement:
GS-0810 Series:
Degree: Engineering. To be acceptable, the program must: (1) lead to a bachelor's degree in a school of engineering with at least one program accredited by ABET; or (2) include differential and integral calculus and courses (more advanced than first-year physics and chemistry) in five of the following seven areas of engineering science or physics: (a) statics, dynamics; (b) strength of materials (stress-strain relationships); (c) fluid mechanics, hydraulics; (d) thermodynamics; (e) electrical fields and circuits; (f) nature and properties of materials (relating particle and aggregate structure to properties); and (g) any other comparable area of fundamental engineering science or physics, such as optics, heat transfer, soil mechanics, or electronics.
OR
A combination of education and experience -- college-level education, training, and/or technical experience that furnished (1) a thorough knowledge of the physical and mathematical sciences underlying engineering, and (2) a good understanding, both theoretical and practical, of the engineering sciences and techniques and their applications to one of the branches of engineering. The adequacy of such background must be demonstrated by one of the following:
  1. Professional registration or licensure -- Current registration as an Engineer Intern (EI), Engineer in Training (EIT)1, or licensure as a Professional Engineer (PE) by any State, the District of Columbia, Guam, or Puerto Rico. Absent other means of qualifying under this standard, those applicants who achieved such registration by means other than written test (e.g., State grandfather or eminence provisions) are eligible only for positions that are within or closely related to the specialty field of their registration. For example, an applicant who attains registration through a State Board's eminence provision as a manufacturing engineer typically would be rated eligible only for manufacturing engineering positions.
  2. Written Test -- Evidence of having successfully passed the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) examination or any other written test required for professional registration by an engineering licensure board in the various States, the District of Columbia, Guam, and Puerto Rico.
  3. Specified academic courses -- Successful completion of at least 60 semester hours of courses in the physical, mathematical, and engineering sciences and that included the courses specified in the basic requirements under paragraph A. The courses must be fully acceptable toward meeting the requirements of an engineering program as described in paragraph A.
  4. Related curriculum -- Successful completion of a curriculum leading to a bachelor's degree in an appropriate scientific field, e.g., engineering technology, physics, chemistry, architecture, computer science, mathematics, hydrology, or geology, may be accepted in lieu of a bachelor's degree in engineering, provided the applicant has had at least 1 year of professional engineering experience acquired under professional engineering supervision and guidance. Ordinarily there should be either an established plan of intensive training to develop professional engineering competence, or several years of prior professional engineering-type experience, e.g., in interdisciplinary positions. (The above examples of related curricula are not all inclusive.)
In addition to meeting the basic requirement, you must also possess experience and/or directly related education in the amounts listed below.
Specialized Experience Requirement:
For the GS-12 level: One year of specialized experience equivalent to at least the GS-11 level in federal service. Specialized experience is defined as meeting two or more of the following:
  • Assisting in the development and execution of Forest engineering programs to ensure their accomplishment within applicable guidelines and available manpower and funds;
  • Preparing or reviewing complete and detailed project plans, specifications, and cost estimates for projects such as roads, trails, bridges, or other miscellaneous facilities and structures; and/or
  • Conducting functional inspections of civil engineering projects for compliance with policies, plans, regulations, and work planning.
Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps) and other organizations (e.g., professional; philanthropic; religious; spiritual; community, student, social). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment. You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience.Education:There is no substitution of education for specialized experience.Employment Type: OTHER
