Requirements:

• Currently pursuing or recently completed a Diploma or Degree in Mechanical, Mechatronics, Manufacturing or Product Design Engineering, or a related field
• Hands-on with at least one CAD tool, such as Fusion 360, SolidWorks or Onshape
• Practical experience with FDM 3D printing and slicers such as Bambu Studio, PrusaSlicer or Cura
• Understands tolerances, wall thickness and designing parts for printing
• Able to work independently: take a brief, plan the work, solve problems and deliver without close supervision
• Detail-oriented, with a habit of testing and refining until a part works

Why Join Us:

• Intern at a Malaysia Digital (MD) status company, recognised by MDEC
• A 3 to 6 month internship with a monthly allowance
