What's in it for you: The Manufacturing Engineering MES Intern will work directly with manufacturing engineers, production operators, and quality teams to bridge physical assembly operations with digital manufacturing systems. This hands-on role provides practical experience supporting and optimizing DELMIA Apriso MES (Manufacturing Execution System)within a fast-paced commercial HVAC assembly environment.

The intern will spend time on the production floor learning assembly processes, observing how digital systems interface with operators and equipment, assisting with system enhancements, troubleshooting floor execution issues, and leveraging manufacturing data to drive safety, quality, delivery, and productivity improvements.

What you will do:

MES & Shop-Floor Digital Systems Support

  • Assist manufacturing engineers in sustaining and improving daily shop-floor execution using Apriso.
  • Support production line workflows by implementing electronic work instructions, reference documentation, process flows, new stations, new functionality, and more.
  • Help troubleshoot operational MES issues on the assembly line to minimize production downtime.

Process Documentation & Training

  • Update standard operating procedures (SOPs), standard work instructions, and troubleshooting quick-reference guides for shop-floor operators using Apriso interfaces.
  • Assist in training operators, team leads, and support staff on new or revised MES workflows, digital screens, and mobile terminals.
  • Document system change requirements, bug reports, and user feedback from line personnel.

Continuous Improvement & Data Analytics

  • Participate in Lean Manufacturing and continuous improvement initiatives by extracting and analyzing production data.
  • Support engineering teams in implementing digital poke-yokes (error-proofing) and automated quality inspection gates within the software workflows.
  • Assist with time studies, line balancing, and workflow optimization comparing physical operations against digital MES timestamps.

Testing, Validation & Project Support

  • Participate in software sprint testing and verification of new Apriso functionality or workflow configurations prior to production deployment.
  • Assist engineering staff with engineering change notices (ECNs), product transitions, and new product introductions (NPI) within the MES routing master data.

Floor Engagement & Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Maintain an active, visible presence on the manufacturing floor to foster strong working relationships with assembly technicians and supervisors.
  • Gather feedback from front-line operators regarding interface usability, response times, and ergonomic placement of workstations and MES peripherals.
  • Adhere strictly to all plant safety standards, PPE requirements, and 5S workplace organization practices.

What you will bring:

Required

  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical/Computer Engineering, Mechatronics, Computer Science, or a closely related technical field.
  • High technological aptitude with a passion for smart manufacturing and hands-on production environments.
  • Basic familiarity with manufacturing processes, automation, or software logic.
  • Confidence in Excel functionality and high attention to detail.
  • Strong interpersonal, verbal, and written communication skills with the ability to interact comfortably with shop-floor operators and cross-functional engineers.

Preferred

  • Prior exposure to Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) such as Apriso.
  • Foundational coursework or experience with database fundamentals (e.g., basic SQL queries), programming/scripting (e.g., Python), or industrial networking basics.
  • Understanding of Lean Manufacturing principles (Kaizen, 5S, Standard Work, Poka-Yoke, Value Stream Mapping).
  • Previous internship, co-op, or academic lab experience in a manufacturing, assembly, fabrication, or controls environment.
