Robotics Research Intern Jobs in Utah (NOW HIRING)

Ultradent Products | South Jordan, UT | On-site | Part-time (school year) / Full-time (summer)

Ultradent is seeking a driven, high-potential engineering student to join our Automation Engineering team. You'll work alongside an experienced, multidisciplinary team on real-world challenges spanning mechanical and electrical design, controls, robotics, and data analytics. You don't need every qualification on day one - we value curiosity, initiative, and the ability to learn quickly.

This position is paid at an hourly rate of $24/hour.

Projects vary by team needs and your interests, but past and current intern work includes:

• Designing and building fixtures, tooling, and mechanical components for automated manufacturing equipment

• Developing and testing control logic for automated systems

• Prototyping concepts using CNC machining, 3D printing, and assembly lab equipment

• Analyzing production and test data to identify and drive process improvements

• Supporting cross-functional projects with R&D and Sustaining Engineering, seeing how products move from development through ongoing support

Depending on your projects, you'll have opportunities to develop skills in:

• 3D Modeling: Build proficiency in SolidWorks to create robust, efficient designs

• Design for Machinability: Design parts for speed, precision, and cost-effective manufacturing

• Automation: Explore how electrical, mechanical, and control systems come together in automated equipment

• Programming: Develop software skills, including object-oriented programming and test-driven development

• Prototyping: Use our lab resources - assembly and cutting equipment, CNC machining, and 3D printing - to test and refine ideas quickly

• Machining: Gain exposure to machining fundamentals and how parts are made

• Statistics & Systems Thinking: Apply statistical methods to real data and build a broader understanding of complex systems

• Curious and hands-on: You want to understand how things work, enjoy prototyping and testing, and often go beyond the classroom to learn more

• Inventive: You look for better ways to design, build, and improve products, systems, and processes

• Driven and proactive: You take initiative, seek ways to add value, and move work forward with ownership

• Collaborative and growth-minded: You build on different perspectives, ask questions, seek feedback, and learn quickly from those around you

• Location: South Jordan, UT (on-site)

• Hours: 16-20 hours per week during the school year; full-time during the summer. Flexible scheduling is available to support your academic commitments.

• Duration: Most internships last six months to one year, with potential to extend based on performance, contribution, and interest

• Currently enrolled in an engineering degree program (mechanical, electrical, manufacturing, computer, or related field)

• Able to work on-site at our South Jordan, UT facility

• Preference for first- through third-year students able to commit to multiple semesters
