Summer Intern - Disciplines

Free Form Fibers is committed to using its laser-driven chemical vapor deposition technology to bring new and unique fiber materials and related products to the advanced materials industry. Free Form Fibers was founded as a result of the development of a unique process based on chemical vapor deposition (CVD) to create inorganic High-Performance Fibers (HPFs) and high purity powders for use in a variety of challenging applications.

These applications appear in military and aerospace (turbo machinery, rockets, advanced structures), automobile, biomedical, energy and other industries that require advanced materials with exceptional strength, stiffness, heat resistance and/or chemical resistance. FFF provides these high-value raw materials to OEMs and composites fabricators.

As Free Form Fibers enters the commercialization phase, adding team members to expand the scope of operations and meet the multi-year business strategy is critical.

The Summer Intern will support Free Form Fibers' business operations through participation in projects and initiatives aligned with their academic background and assigned functional area. This provides hands‑on experience in a growing advanced materials and manufacturing environment, with opportunities to contribute across engineering, research and development, manufacturing, operations, commercial activities, or other business functions based on organizational needs. Working collaboratively with team members, the intern will apply academic knowledge, develop practical skills, and contribute to projects that support the Company's operational and strategic objectives.
