• FA sample archiving and organization
• Device storage management and tracking
• Bill of Specification (BOS) development and clean‑up for existing items
• Collaboration with Fellowes Asia to support the development of modular SLAs for new devices coming to market (e.g., future iPhone generations)
• Support for CAD reviews, 3D printing, and 2D scanning activities
• Establishing structure around Golden Samples, tooling samples, and overall project sample archiving

These efforts will ensure faster, more accurate access to essential data and physical samples, helping to enhance speed, accuracy, and consistency across product development. In short, this role will free up engineering and product resources, strengthen foundational processes, and build systems that continue benefiting the team long after the internship ends.

In addition, you will gain hands‑on exposure to real‑world product workflows—from sample management and CAD review to modular planning and 3D/2D scanning technologies—building both technical and operational skill sets. The role offers direct collaboration with cross‑functional teams, ownership of organizational improvements, and the opportunity to contribute to processes that support major retail partners. This is a strong opportunity for an intern looking to build practical experience, develop problem‑solving capabilities, and make a visible impact within a global consumer products business.

• Enrollment in an Engineering degree program, such as Mechanical Engineering or Electrical Engineering
• Ideally candidates graduating in May 2026, December 2026, or Spring 2027
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
• Interest in product development, design processes, and hands‑on technical work
• Ability to collaborate effectively with cross‑functional and global teams
