2027 Product Engineering Internship – ATI Specialty Materials

 

Locations: Monroe, NC

 

Program Duration: 10 Weeks | Summer 2027

 

Target Students: Rising Juniors & Seniors – Materials Science, Metallurgical, Mechanical, or Chemical Engineering

 

Transform Alloys Into Performance – Intern in Product Engineering at ATI

 

At ATI, we engineer specialty materials that power the next generation of aircraft, spacecraft, surgical implants, and energy systems. As a Product Engineering Intern, you'll be part of the team that transforms alloy designs into manufacturable, high-performance products. You’ll apply your materials science or mechanical engineering background to optimize microstructure, improve product specifications, and enhance process capability in real production environments.

 

What You’ll Work On

 

Depending on your project assignment, you may:

  • Optimizing Boeing shapes processing parameters to support process performance and consistency.
  • Standardizing reheat points for nickel (Ni) shapes and rectangles.
  • Supporting process improvement activities related to materials processing and metallurgy.
  • Applying materials science and metallurgical concepts to hands-on manufacturing projects.

  • What You’ll Gain

  • Hands-on experience in materials processing and process metallurgy.
  • Practical exposure to processing parameters and process standardization.
  • Experience working with nickel shapes and rectangles and related manufacturing processes.
  • Opportunities to apply classroom knowledge in a real-world manufacturing environment.
  • Experience that aligns directly with potential Process Metallurgist opportunities at ATI after graduation.

 

Qualifications

 

Preferred Qualifications

  • Rising Junior or Senior pursuing a B.S. in:
    • Materials Science & Engineering
    • Metallurgical Engineering
    • Mechanical or Chemical Engineering
  • GPA of 3.0 or higher (preferred)
  • Interest in product development, metallurgy, or high-performance alloy applications
  • Familiarity with Excel, data analysis tools, or metallurgical lab techniques

 

We thrive when the expectations are great, and the barriers are high. We're solving the world's most difficult challenges through materials science. Our advanced, integrated process technologies and proven performers give us a tremendous competitive advantage. When customers systems need to fly higher, dig deeper, stand stronger, and last longer -- anywhere on, above or below the earth -- ATI is proven to perform.
