Digital Control Incorporated (DCI) is the world's leading supplier of underground locating and steering products for the horizontal directional drilling (HDD) industry. Since the introduction of this revolutionary technology more than 30 years ago, DCI has been at the forefront of trenchless technologies that enable the efficient installation of underground utilities such as fiber optic, telecom, gas, water, and sewer lines worldwide. DCI's products are valued for their durable design, ease of use and uncompromising commitment to customer service.
We have an exciting opportunity on the Manufacturing Design Engineering (MDE) team for a full-time Summer 2024 Intern. This internship will be based out of our headquarters in Kent, WA.
As an Engineering Intern on our MDE team, you'll apply course concepts and lean tools to a real-world manufacturing environment. You'll gain knowledge and skills through direct exposure to the functional areas of engineering, quality, and production. You'll lead your own project to improve manufacturing processes for a key product, and assist in ongoing manufacturing engineering, work cell efficiency, equipment maintenance, and technical documentation initiatives.
If you're an innovative, solutions-oriented student looking for an opportunity to add meaningful expertise to your college experience, then DCI could be a perfect fit for you!
Requirements
What you'll do:
Work hard, play often... DCI employees are innovative and creative. Our open (forest-like) work environment creates free flowing conversations across all functions. We have gaming days; Lego challenges and ping pong matches to build on our creativity when one hits a roadblock. If that is not enough, our employees bring their four-legged companions (dogs) to work and can take them for a walk around the Green River trail.
DCI takes pride in caring a lot about our employees. We believe that employees should not be burdened with benefits expenses, so we provide lucrative health care plans unmatched in most other companies. We also like to eat at DCI and find any excuse to celebrate the most random holidays (Pi Day, Chocolate Ice Cream Day, etc.) We have monthly catered lunches, a fully stocked snack area, sporting tickets, wellness competitions, and most importantly a team of people who will tell you that DCI is the best place they've ever worked. This is evident by our long service team and low turnover.

The Company's EEO policy includes the full & complete support of the Company and all levels of leadership. Because it's just the right thing to do. We hope you think so too.
