Job description

Who we are:
We are on a mission to become a leading supplier of critical materials that enable the green energy and technology revolution. Our materials and technologies are required for the electric vehicle, green energy, consumer electronics, and defense industries, and our battery grade lithium and tech metals are needed for chipsets, semiconductors, and 5G.
We have a substantial interest in the Round Top, Heavy Rare Earth, Lithium and Critical Minerals deposit in West Texas. We have also developed the United States' first rare earth and critical minerals processing facility and we own the only scalable, sintered neo-magnet manufacturing system in the Western Hemisphere. By developing this fully integrated, US-based "mine-to-magnet" critical mineral supply chain, we are poised to become the leading domestic supplier to these industries.
What you can expect:
At USA Rare Earth, we are pioneers and problem solvers, technologists and team players. Together, we:
Build Solutions: If our task was a simple one, it would already be done. We are creative and solution-oriented, and we think outside the box to solve important problems. We know that a range of expertise and technologies is needed for success, and we work across sectors and alongside customers to deliver world-class solutions in sustainable ways.
Deliver Quality: When we do things, we do them well. We believe that top-tier quality leads to industry competitiveness and we hold ourselves to the highest quality standards. We move fast when executing, but safety, quality, and excellence always come first.
Lead responsibly: We have a responsibility to the planet, our consumers, our country, and each other. We put safety at the center of all we do, take accountability for our actions, incorporate sustainable practices in our processes and act with the financial best interest of our investors and consumers in mind.
Win Together: Establishing a rare earth magnet supply chain is a big undertaking - and getting there is a team effort. We communicate openly, work together and challenge each other in pursuit of our goals. With every step we take we learn and get better.
Position Overview:
USA Rare Earth is seeking a motivated and curious Engineering Intern to support engineering and manufacturing initiatives related to next-generation rare earth magnet production. This role offers hands-on exposure to real-world engineering challenges in a fast-paced startup environment focused on rebuilding the U.S. domestic supply chain for critical minerals and magnet technologies.
The Engineering Intern will work alongside engineers and technical teams across multiple disciplines, gaining practical experience in process development, manufacturing optimization, equipment design, and materials analysis. This internship is ideal for a student eager to apply classroom knowledge to real engineering problems while contributing to innovative clean energy and advanced manufacturing solutions.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Support engineering projects related to magnet manufacturing, materials processing, and production scale-up.
  • Assist in testing, evaluating, and improving rare earth magnet production processes.
  • Collect, organize, and analyze engineering data to support technical decision-making.
  • Contribute to troubleshooting technical issues in pilot and production environments.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including engineering, R&D, operations, and quality.
  • Assist with equipment design, process documentation, and technical reporting.
  • Maintain organized documentation of experiments, testing results, and project progress.
  • Follow all company safety, environmental, and quality procedures while working in laboratory or manufacturing environments.

Qualifications:
  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Materials Science, Chemical, Industrial, or related discipline).
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a desire to learn in a hands-on environment.
  • Interest in advanced manufacturing, materials science, clean energy technologies, or critical mineral supply chains.
  • Familiarity with engineering tools such as CAD software, data analysis tools, or laboratory instrumentation is a plus.
  • Ability to work collaboratively in a fast-paced and evolving startup environment.
  • Strong communication skills and attention to detail.
  • Commitment to safety, continuous improvement, and technical excellence.
