    • Support compliance with applicable OSHA, EPA, TCEQ, and other federal, state, and local regulations.
    • Participate in routine facility inspections, audits, and workplace assessments to identify hazards and opportunities for improvement.
    • Assist with the development and maintenance of HSE procedures, work instructions, and documentation.
  • Project Ownership
    • Lead or support a semester-long HSE improvement project aligned with the intern's academic background and career interests.
    • Safety-focused project option: Support development and implementation of Firefly's Serious Injury and Fatality (SIF) Prevention Program through critical risk identification, data analysis, field observations, and preventive control development.
    • Environmental-focused project option: Support Firefly's ISO 14001 initiative by assisting with environmental aspect evaluations, process mapping, documentation updates, gap assessments, and continuous improvement activities.
    • Present project outcomes and recommendations to HSE leadership at the conclusion of the internship.
  • Risk Assessment & Incident Prevention
    • Assist in hazard identification and risk assessments for manufacturing, testing, and operational activities.
    • Participate in incident, near-miss, and injury investigations, including root cause analysis and corrective action tracking.
    • Support initiatives that strengthen Firefly's safety culture and employee engagement.
  • Training & Communication
    • Assist in the creation and revision of HSE training materials and awareness campaigns.
    • Collaborate with employees and leaders across multiple departments to promote safe and environmentally responsible work practices.
  • Compliance & Data Management
    • Help compile and analyze HSE metrics and performance indicators.
    • Support environmental reporting, recordkeeping, and permit-related activities.
    • Research emerging HSE regulations, industry trends, and best practices applicable to aerospace and advanced manufacturing operations.

QUALIFICATIONS
Required:
  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Occupational Safety, Environmental Science, Industrial Hygiene, Environmental Engineering, Safety Engineering, or a closely related discipline.
  • Strong interest in occupational safety, environmental management, and continuous improvement.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and work independently.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications, particularly Excel, Word, and PowerPoint.
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, hands-on manufacturing and test environment.

Desired:
Candidates should preferably have a focus in one of the following areas
  • Previous internship, co-op, laboratory, or project experience related to HSE, manufacturing, engineering, or industrial operations.
  • Familiarity with OSHA regulations and fundamental risk assessment methodologies.
  • Exposure to safety and environmental management systems, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, or sustainability initiatives through coursework or projects.
  • Experience analyzing data and presenting findings using tools such as Excel, Power BI, or similar software.
  • Interest in aerospace, advanced manufacturing, or high-reliability industries.
WHAT YOU'LL GAIN
  • Hands-on experience supporting HSE operations in a rapidly growing aerospace company.
  • The opportunity to own and deliver a meaningful HSE improvement project with visible organizational impact.
  • Exposure to HSE management systems, environmental compliance, and operational risk management.
  • Mentorship from experienced HSE professionals and collaboration with engineering, manufacturing, and operations teams.
  • Practical experience applying classroom knowledge to real-world challenges in one of the world's most innovative industries.
