Job description

About Us

Salient Motion is building a modular motion and actuation platform that is redefining how aerospace, defense, and industrial systems are designed, built, and deployed. We move fast, operate with high ownership, and expect real contribution from every member of the team. Interns are treated like engineers, not observers.

Role Overview

As a Engineering Intern, you will work directly with our engineering team across mechanical, electrical, software, manufacturing, and systems level work. This role is designed for students who want real responsibility, exposure to production hardware, and experience taking ideas from concept through execution.

This is a hands on role in a fast paced startup environment. You will be expected to learn quickly, ask good questions, and take ownership of real engineering problems.

What You Will Do

  • Support the design, build, and test of electro mechanical systems and subassemblies
  • Assist with prototyping, assembly, and hands on lab and shop work
  • Help execute engineering tests, collect data, and document results
  • Support manufacturing and supplier related activities including part preparation and validation
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of engineering and documentation processes
  • Work closely with senior engineers and program leaders on active customer programs

What We Are Looking For

  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field
  • Strong curiosity and willingness to learn across disciplines
  • Comfortable working with hardware and tools in a lab or shop environment
  • Ability to take direction, execute quickly, and follow through
  • Clear communicator who can document work and ask thoughtful questions
  • Prior hands on experience through projects, labs, clubs, internships, or personal builds is a plus

What You Will Gain

  • Real world experience working on production bound hardware
  • Exposure to aerospace and defense engineering standards and practices
  • Mentorship from experienced engineers in a startup environment
  • A fast learning curve and meaningful technical ownership
  • Opportunity to be considered for future full time roles

Internship Details

  • Full time, paid summer internship: $25/hr to $35/hr
  • Onsite role in Torrance, CA
