About us
Research, Design and Development (RDD) is Dyson's engine room. It’s where our engineers challenge convention, build, test, fail, refine, and then fail again - all to invent technology that solves problems that others ignore. Join us as a Design Engineering Graduate and from day one you’ll be assigned to a live project with the chance to have a meaningful impact on the evolution of Dyson technology.
We are looking for students who would be able to commit full-time for a minimum 12 weeks.
About the role
Upon joining us in the internship programme, you’ll be assigned to a project team from day one. You’ll be expected to hit the ground running on one of Dyson’s many live projects. Working as part of a larger project team, you’ll have your own set of project deliverables and the chance to take ownership of how these are achieved. Some of your tasks could include:
-
Developing mechanical parts, assemblies and systems from concept to production
-
Developing and validating mechanical designs that meet specification requirements
-
Conceptualising, developing and detailing ideas for future mechanical parts
-
Designing experiments and necessary rigs/fixtures for component and system characterisation and validation.
Working with engineers and scientists/technical experts across a broad range of disciplines, you’ll be comfortable learning from others, but also sharing your own knowledge, ideas and opinions. We’ll support you with a development framework designed to help you make the most of your internship.
Our internship programme
Our internship programme connects academic theory with practical experience. Gain valuable insights into professional applications through mentorships with our industry-leading experts and exposure to cutting-edge practices. Join us for a transformative journey where theory meets application, guided by the industry’s best minds!
About you
Our internships are competitive and delivering the next generation of Dyson technology is tough, so you’ll need to:
-
Be studying towards a Mechanical, Aerospace, Design Engineering, Mechatronics or related discipline
-
Able to commit full-time for at least 12 weeks
-
Able to evidence how you have applied your technical knowledge to solve problems, either through your university projects or as part of your extra-curricular activities
-
Happy to build your own networks to learn from the technical expertise around you
-
Creative in your approach to problem solving to ensure our machines are better
-
Passionate about Dyson and our technology to help us meet our ambitious future plan
-
Be able to thrive in Dyson’s fast-paced environment
Above all, you’ll want to play a key part in bringing the next generation of Dyson technology to the world.
Working for us
Join our internship programme to jumpstart your career. We look to offer selected high-performing interns an opportunity to return on our graduate programme.
Dyson is an equal opportunity employer. We know that great minds don’t think alike, and it takes all kinds of minds to make our technology so unique. We welcome applications from all backgrounds and employment decisions are made without regard to race, colour, religion, national or ethnic origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, protected veteran status or other any other dimension of diversity.
What We Do
At Dyson we are focused on solving the problems that others have ignored; solving them first using our technology and ingenuity. In order to achieve this we need to pioneer technologies that are different and authentic. This is the core of what we do and who we are. We must strive to create the future, every single day by developing new things, different things, things that go against the grain with a diverse and global team of ingenious minds.
Dyson employs over 14,000 people and is present in more than 80 countries. And while we are growing fast we want Dyson to remain a start-up in spirit with the freedom of experimentation and learning, constantly reinventing our products as well as reinventing how we work, how we sell and how we support our owners. At the same time we are working through the James Dyson Foundation, James Dyson Award and Dyson Institute to inspire future engineers and pioneering a new approach to engineering education.
Underlining everything we do in this diverse environment is the need to always show respect, supporting each other as one team to overcome whatever challenges we encounter. We drive empowerment, development and equality in an inclusive environment for our people around the world.
The future doesn’t just happen, we look to make it happen, to achieve leaps through pioneering new ideas
