About Machina Labs
 
Engineering moves at software speed. Manufacturing doesn't. Yet.
 
Machina Labs is changing that. We build intelligent, software-defined factories that produce complex metal structures directly from digital design. By integrating advanced metal forming, robotics, and automated production inside a flexible factory architecture, we enable customers to move from prototype to production in weeks, not years.
 
Backed by Lockheed Martin, Toyota, and NVIDIA, we're building the manufacturing infrastructure that defense, aerospace, and advanced mobility programs will run on.
 
If you want to work on hard problems that matter and see them fly, drive, and defend, this is the place.    

The Role

As a Robotics Process Engineer Intern at Machina Labs, you will help enable RoboForming, our robotic incremental sheet metal forming process, by supporting CAD manipulation, robot tool path generation, process optimization, and data analysis. You will work with cutting-edge systems and internal tools to convert digital designs into robotic action, analyze forming and scan data, and help iterate on process strategies using real-world engineering feedback. This role is hands-on, highly collaborative, and ideal for individuals interested in digital tooling, advanced robotics, and manufacturing automation. This role will report into our Federal Aerospace & Defense Vertical.
  • Assist in generating and modifying CAD models for compatibility with RoboForming processes.
  • Support the conversion of CAD designs into robot tool paths using our internal software stack.
  • Analyze process data and 3D scan results to assess part quality, suggest improvements, and document findings.
  • Design and execute experiments (DOE) aimed at optimizing forming techniques and tool path strategies.
  • Work closely with product managers, engineers, and team members to improve process workflows, and participate in technical discussions to support project goals.
  • Operate autonomously, make informed decisions, and refine approaches based on real-world feedback under mentorship from experienced engineers.
  • Document processes, results, and analyses to support ongoing improvement efforts.
  • Actively pursuing a Bachelor’s or advanced degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing, Industrial, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field.
  • Expected to complete or have completed final degree within one year of the internship’s end. 
  • Some experience in a manufacturing, robotics, or prototyping environment (internships, research projects, or coursework welcome).
  • Proficiency in CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Rhino) through academic projects or prior work.
  • Familiarity or coursework in CAM, tool path generation, or basic robot programming.
  • Foundational data analysis skills (MATLAB, Python, advanced Excel, or similar tools).
  • Willingness to work on open-ended problems, make rapid decisions, and adapt quickly in a fast-paced environment.
  • Attention to detail, ability to follow instructions, and commitment to safety.
  • Good written and verbal communication skills; able to collaborate with interdisciplinary teams.
  • Experience in surface modeling via CAD coursework or projects.
  • Exposure to industrial robots (FANUC, KUKA, ABB, etc.) from labs or classes.
  • Familiarity with 3D scanning or inspection tools.
  • Experience with Python scripting, automation tools, or coding basics.
  • Exposure to CNC machining, additive manufacturing, or digital manufacturing coursework.
  • Experience working in a production or team environment.
  • Understanding of safety, especially in engineering labs or manufacturing facilities.
