--In Person--

Apply Now!

Do you have what it takes to work at one of the coolest places in the world?!

Here are SQ4D, we are pushing the boundaries between technology and construction. Meet the team that started it all!

We are seeking motivated engineering interns to join our in-person internship program. You will work on real engineering projects across multiple disciplines, applying classroom knowledge to hands-on problem solving. This role is ideal for engineers who are eager to learn, take initiative, and develop practical skills in a real-world engineering environment.

Applied Problem-Solving

Self-Directed Learning

Technical Curiosity

Hands-On Mindset

Clear Communication

Responsibilities

Assist with engineering projects from concept through implementation
Apply engineering fundamentals to solve real-world technical problems
Support design, analysis, prototyping, testing, and iteration efforts
Collaborate with engineers across multiple disciplines
Use engineering tools, software, and equipment relevant to assigned tasks

Must Have

Currently pursuing a degree in an engineering discipline (or closely related field)
Ability to work in person for the duration of the internship
Strong willingness to learn and take initiative
Reliable mode of transportation.
Reliable, punctual, and professional in an in-person setting
Strong organizational skills and attention to detail

Nice to have

Experience with CAD Software, such as Fusion 360, Solidworks, CREO, NX, Autodesk.
Basic programming or scripting experience (any language relevant to their field)
Experience with running CNCs
Familiarity with manufacturing, prototyping, or lab/shop environments
Previous internship, co-op, or hands-on project experience
Ability to work independently with minimal supervision

Real-World CNC Machining Experience

Learn practical CNC machining skills by working directly with CNC equipment in an in-person shop environment. Interns will be exposed to setup, operation, and basic programming while supporting real engineering projects from design to production.

Practical Engineering Design & Development

Here at SQ4D, you'll learn our #1 slogan for design, KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid!) Here you'll learn how to Design for Assembly, Design for Manufacturing, and Design for Service. Use your engineering knowledge to create, evaluate, and refine designs for real projects. Interns will move from concept to execution while learning how design decisions impact function, manufacturability, and performance.

Learn to Operate Our 3D printer

Learn how to operate a concrete 3D printer while supporting real construction and engineering projects. Interns can gain hands-on experience with material preparation, machine setup, print monitoring, and understanding how design and process parameters affect structural quality and print performance.

Learn to Read Plans and Create G-Code

Interns can learn how to read and understand building plans and technical drawings, including dimensions, tolerances, and design intent. This role provides hands-on exposure to translating those plans into G-code used for CNC machines, helping bridge the gap between design and manufacturing.

Through real projects, interns can see how drawings turn into machine-ready instructions and how small details in plans directly affect production, accuracy, and fit. This experience builds a strong foundation in both documentation interpretation and practical manufacturing workflows.

We are SQ4D. Strong ideas demand strong engineering.

At SQ4D, the work is hands-on and grounded in real engineering challenges. Projects move quickly from ideas to physical results, and the focus is always on building, testing, and improving—not just talking about solutions. People work closely together, often across different engineering disciplines, and you see firsthand how design choices affect performance, manufacturability, and the final outcome.

The environment is practical, collaborative, and driven by learning. You’re encouraged to ask questions, take initiative, and own your work, whether that means refining a design, running a machine, or solving a problem on the shop floor. SQ4D is a place for engineers who want to develop real skills, gain experience, and grow by doing the work themselves.
