About us
We are part of a global project team, working with various stakeholders within the company to design and develop new methodologies that enable verification of our product mechanical robustness across all categories by means of exploring the limits of the technology and optimising our solution.
About the role
As an Intern in the Mechanical Robustness team, you will collaborate closely with our Verification and Mechanical Test Development Team to support the evaluation of chemical properties, solutions, and compositions, and their impact on the robustness of plastic parts. Under the mentorship of experienced engineers, you will engage in various stages of test development, data analysis, and reporting, playing a vital role in enhancing product quality and performance.
Your role will involve delving into the intricacies of material science, as you design and execute experiments aimed at unravelling the chemical mysteries of plastic part production. Utilizing a diverse array of analytical techniques such as spectroscopy, chromatography, and microscopy, you will meticulously analyse material properties, contributing valuable insights to inform our testing protocols and procedures.
Your days will be filled with hands-on experimentation, conducting chemical analyses and mechanical tests on plastic parts to explore their resilience under different environmental conditions. With each test performed, you will gather data, eagerly anticipating the insights it will unveil and delving into its analysis. From these analyses, you will assist in crafting comprehensive reports, distilling complex findings into actionable recommendations to drive continuous improvement efforts.

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
