Mechanical Engineering Intern, Infrastructure

We are seeking a mechanical engineering intern to join our Hardware Engineering team. Come and learn about our innovative mechanical design and hardware architectures, which contribute to us building some of the most energy and material efficient data center equipment in our industry. Our servers and data centers are the foundation upon which our rapidly scaling infrastructure efficiently operates and our innovative services are delivered. The intern will work closely with AI, Power, Server, Storage, Network and Data Center Engineering design teams to help design, qualify and optimize our hardware.

This is a 12-week internship.Support the design of Meta's next generation data center products in the AI, server, storage, network or power domains. Interface with peer mechanical, hardware, and power engineers as well as other cross-functional teams to understand system architecture and design constraints. Create mechanical design concepts for various products and develop these in 3D CAD. Work across a variety of areas such as mechanism design, sheet metal and plastic part design, design for manufacturing, serviceability, and assembly. Design mechanisms and service touch points to improve installation, serviceability and ergonomics of the design. Devise and execute experiments for mechanical system optimization. Build and test prototypes using our in-house workshop and external suppliers. Validate hardware according to plan while keeping a thorough procedural record. Diagnose and root-cause part, assembly or design failures with a hands-on approach.Currently in the process of obtaining a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field Experience with Creo, SolidWorks or other similar CAD software Familiarity with rapid prototyping, 3D printing, standard machine tools and equipment, or similar Comfortable disassembling and debugging existing designs to come up with better solutions Experience with rack mounted computer equipment Understanding of mechanism, sheet metal, and plastic part design as well as design for manufacturing, serviceability, and/or assembly Familiarity with Tolerance Analysis, Structural Analysis (FEA), or thermal analysisMeta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities, and grow businesses. When Facebook launched in 2004, it changed the way people connect. Apps like Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp further empowered billions around the world. Now, Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology. People who choose to build their careers by building with us at Meta help shape a future that will take us beyond what digital connection makes possible today-beyond the constraints of screens, the limits of distance, and even the rules of physics.Meta is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity employer.
