• Support senior designers with tooling concepts, revisions, and documentation
• Participate in design reviews and engineering meetings
• Work closely with toolmakers to understand how designs are manufactured and assembled
• Learn metal stamping processes, die construction, and best design practices
• Assist with troubleshooting and implementing design improvements
• Help maintain engineering documentation and project records

• Strong mechanical aptitude and an interest in how things work
• Experience with CAD software (Solid Works preferred, but other 3D CAD experience is welcome)
• Pursuing or recently completed a degree or technical program in Mechanical Design, Engineering Technology, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field
• Manufacturing, machining, fabrication, or toolroom experience is a plus, but not required
• Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail
• Willingness to learn from experienced designers and toolmakers
• Strong communication skills and the ability to work in a collaborative team environment
• Positive attitude, curiosity, and a desire to build a long-term career in manufacturing

We offer a young, energetic team culture with flexibility, mentorship, competitive pay, and outstanding benefits. If you're looking for an internship where you'll develop valuable engineering and manufacturing skills—not just observe from the sidelines—Victory Tool is the place to start your career.
