Solve Manufacturing Challenges Through Materials Science Intern in Technology at ATI

At ATI, we engineer specialty materials that power the next generation of aircraft, spacecraft, surgical implants, and energy systems. As a Technology Intern, youll apply your Materials Science and Engineering knowledge to real-world manufacturing challenges. Youll work with plant teams to investigate material defects, analyze mechanical and metallography data, and monitor experimental material processing to identify trends and support improvements.

What Youll Work On

Depending on your project assignment, you may:

• Investigate material defects throughout the plant to help determine their source and recommend process changes to reduce defect occurrence.

• Analyze mechanical and metallography data against processing history to identify trends and processing conditions associated with unacceptable results.

• Observe and monitor experimental material lots throughout processing to measure improvements and respond to unforeseen processing challenges.

• Apply materials science principles and data analysis to support manufacturing process improvements.

• Collaborate with technical and plant personnel to communicate findings and develop potential solutions.

What Youll Gain

• Hands-on experience applying Materials Science and Engineering principles in a manufacturing environment.

• Practical experience investigating material defects and processing-related issues.

• Experience analyzing mechanical testing and metallography data alongside processing history.

• Exposure to experimental material processing and evaluating process improvements.

• Development of technical problem-solving and data analysis skills.

• Experience working with plant and technical teams to identify and address manufacturing challenges.

• Opportunities to strengthen technical communication and report-out skills.

• A deeper understanding of how processing conditions influence material properties and product results.
