At Weiler, our engineering internships are designed to provide students pursuing an engineering degree with meaningful, hands-on experience while developing skills for a successful career. We look for individuals who demonstrate mechanical aptitude, engagement, curiosity, attention to detail, and strong problem-solving abilities.
Our program offers a unique opportunity to gain practical knowledge of manufacturing processes and equipment, while building a foundation for future design and engineering work. Interns experience the full spectrum of engineering at Weiler—from assembly to design—ensuring a well-rounded understanding of how ideas become reality.
Program Structure
-
First Summer: Hands-On Experience
- Interns begin in Assembly, working directly on Weiler equipment.
- This phase builds practical skills and a deep understanding of tools, processes, and manufacturing operations.
- It’s an invaluable opportunity to discover whether a hands-on engineering environment is the right fit for you.
-
Subsequent Summers: Design and Project Work
- Interns transition to design and project-based assignments.
- While working on computer-based tasks, interns are encouraged to stay connected to the plant floor to see the real-world impact of their work.
- This expectation continues for full-time engineers at Weiler, reinforcing our commitment to hands-on, practical, applied engineering.
Our internships serve as a paid, immersive experience that also functions as a working interview for both you and Weiler. You’ll gain insight into our engineering culture and environment, while we evaluate your potential for a full-time role.
Students entering their final year of college may be considered for internships that combine hands-on and office-based work within the same summer. Preference is given to students with multiple years of school remaining, as this allows for continued growth and development through multiple summers.
Prospective applicants should note that Weiler does not coordinate living arrangements. Interns are responsible for finding housing close enough to the factory to be able to commute 4-5 days each week.
EDUCATION and/or EXPERIENCE
- High school diploma or GED
- Must be enrolled in an accredited college or university and working towards a degree in engineering.

What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in engineering intern jobs.
- Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree program in an engineering discipline
- Proficiency in at least one programming language such as Python, Java, or C++
- Experience with CAD software such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or CATIA for hardware roles
- Familiarity with version control systems, particularly Git and GitHub
- Ability to read and interpret technical drawings, schematics, or engineering specifications
- Strong written and verbal communication skills for cross-functional team collaboration
Tips for Your Engineering Intern Job Search
Tailor your resume to each discipline
Recruiters for software engineering internships want to see GitHub links and programming languages, while mechanical or civil roles prioritize CAD tools and lab experience. One generic resume loses both audiences, so keep a version for each discipline you're targeting.
List tools and software versions explicitly
Engineering intern job listings often screen for specific tools like AutoCAD, MATLAB, SolidWorks, or Python. Naming the exact software and, where relevant, the version or environment you've used gives hiring managers a concrete match against their requirements.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists engineering intern openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Target postings that name a hiring manager
When a job listing credits a team or department lead, you can address your cover letter directly to that person. Engineering intern roles posted by small or mid-size firms often include this detail, and a named letter stands out against generic applications.
Prepare for a technical screen, not just behavioral questions
Most engineering intern interviews include a coding challenge, a design problem, or a walkthrough of a past project. Practice explaining your reasoning out loud, because interviewers evaluate your thought process as much as the final answer.
Follow up with a specific reference to your interview
A thank-you note that recalls a particular technical problem you discussed or a project the team mentioned is far more effective than a generic message. Send it within twenty-four hours of your interview while the details are fresh for both sides.
Engineering Intern Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most engineering interns?
The most active employers for engineering interns right now are Skyworks Solutions, WSP, and Jacobs, and the most openings are in California, Texas, and North Carolina, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand tends to concentrate in technology, defense, and manufacturing sectors throughout the year.
How many engineering intern jobs are remote?
About 57% of engineering intern openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, though availability varies significantly by discipline. Software and data engineering roles account for most of the remote options, while mechanical, civil, and electrical roles typically require on-site access to equipment, labs, or physical infrastructure.
How do you become an engineering intern?
Start by enrolling in an accredited engineering degree program, since most internship postings require active enrollment. Build hands-on experience through coursework projects, student design teams, or personal builds, and document that work in a portfolio or GitHub repository. Then apply to internship openings that align with your discipline and the tools you already know how to use.
Can you get an engineering intern role with little or no experience?
Yes, many employers hire first- and second-year students with no prior industry experience, provided you can demonstrate technical fundamentals. Completing relevant coursework, contributing to open-source projects, entering engineering competitions, or building a small personal project gives hiring managers concrete evidence of your ability to work with tools and solve problems before you've held a paid role.
What does the engineering intern interview process look like?
Most processes begin with a recruiter screen to confirm your enrollment status and availability, followed by a technical round where you solve problems related to your discipline, such as coding exercises, design calculations, or system troubleshooting scenarios. A final round often involves meeting the team or a hiring manager who walks through a past project with you to assess how you communicate technical decisions.
Where can I find and apply to engineering intern jobs?
You can find and apply to engineering intern jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from companies across the United States. Search for roles that match your discipline and availability, then apply directly to each listing that fits your background.
