Job Summary
The Engineering Intern is a hands on technical contributor supporting continuous improvement, capital projects, and day to day engineering activities within a food grade powder blending manufacturing environment. This role is designed for a highly engaged, curious, and proactive intern who enjoys being on the plant floor, solving real problems, and supporting structured engineering and Management of Change (MOC) processes.
The intern will work closely with Operations, Maintenance, Quality, EHS, and external vendors to support project execution, data collection, troubleshooting, and documentation. This position provides exposure to real manufacturing challenges and professional engineering practices, including vendor walkdowns, MOC participation, and capital project support.
ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Project & Continuous Improvement Support
  • Assist with execution of continuous improvement and capital projects, including data collection, analysis, documentation, and follow-up.
  • Support development of project scopes, layouts, equipment requirements, and technical documentation.
  • Assist with root cause analysis (5-Why, Fishbone, basic DMAIC) for process, equipment, or quality issues.
  • Track action items, timelines, and deliverables for active projects.

Hands-On Plant & Process Support
  • Spend significant time on the production floor observing processes, identifying inefficiencies, and supporting troubleshooting activities.
  • Collect and analyze process, production, and equipment data to identify trends and improvement opportunities.
  • Support downtime, yield, and loss analysis for blending, conveying, and packaging equipment.
  • Assist with updating equipment documentation, SOPs, and standard work.

Management of Change (MOC)
  • Support Management of Change (MOC) activities by assisting with documentation, risk assessments, and follow-up actions.
  • Ensure changes are properly reviewed, communicated, and documented in accordance with site procedures.
  • Assist in verifying post-implementation effectiveness of approved changes.

Vendor & Contractor Coordination
  • Participate in vendor walkthroughs and on-site visits for equipment evaluation, troubleshooting, and project scoping.
  • Assist engineers during vendor meetings, FAT/SAT preparation, and installation activities.
  • Support communication with vendors by gathering technical information, photos, measurements, and specifications.

Safety, Quality & Compliance
  • Follow all plant safety rules, food safety requirements, GMPs, and sanitation standards.
  • Support engineering activities that improve safety, food quality, and regulatory compliance.
  • Assist with identifying risks related to equipment design, material flow, and hygienic practices.

Required Qualifications
  • Recent grad in: Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Food Engineering, or related discipline
  • Strong interest in manufacturing, process engineering, or continuous improvement
  • Comfortable working in a plant environment (hands-on, floor-based role)
  • Strong critical thinking, problem-solving, and observation skills
  • Ability to document information clearly and follow structured processes
  • Willingness to ask questions, learn quickly, and take initiative

Preferred Qualifications
  • Prior internship, co-op, or hands-on manufacturing experience
  • Exposure to Lean, Six Sigma, or continuous improvement concepts
  • Interest in powder processing, material handling, or food manufacturing
  • Basic proficiency with Excel, data analysis, or dashboards
  • Familiarity with technical drawings, layouts, or process flow diagrams

What Success Looks Like
  • Actively engaged on the plant floor and in engineering discussions
  • Provides reliable project and MOC support with attention to detail
  • Demonstrates strong ownership of assigned tasks and follow-ups
  • Builds working relationships with operators, management team, and vendors
  • Develops real-world understanding of manufacturing processes and project execution
  • Drive own projects

Why This Internship
  • Direct exposure to real manufacturing projects-not observation-only work
  • Hands-on involvement in capital projects, process transformation and vendor interactions
  • Opportunity to apply engineering fundamentals to real operational challenges
  • Strong foundation for future roles in process engineering, manufacturing, or CI
