Internship Opportunities in Productions Operations Management
Intern Manufacturing Associate - Fab
Fab POM Interns are assigned to a specific area in the Fab. They work in that area each week to get integrated into the
manufacturing process. After the first few weeks of the internship, the department reduces the time on the Fab floor and introduces
the interns into other parts of the department where POM skills are used. Each intern is assigned a project and is given full responsibility to find a solution. At the end of the summer, each intern presents their project and recommendations to the Fab Management Team.
The first six weeks of the internship are devoted to learning the area in the Fab and becoming certified on a specific workstation in that area. During this time the intern will be expected to work a normal 12-hour production shift and learn basic operator skills. The second six weeks of the internship is more devoted to exposure to mechanical production tools, metrics, and applications to managing the production area.
