Fabricator Intern

At Dimensional Innovations (DI), we’re Designers, Makers, Engineers, Developers, Strategists and Innovators working together to create remarkable experiences, places and products.

Our work lives at the intersection of design, technology and fabrication. From immersive brand experiences and interactive technology to sports venues, museums, corporate environments and destinations, we bring big ideas to life—all under one roof at our Kansas City headquarters.

At DI, an internship isn’t about sitting on the sidelines.

Our summer interns become part of the team and have the opportunity to contribute to real client projects alongside professionals in their field. You’ll see how ideas move from concept to design, development, fabrication and installation—and how different disciplines come together to create something remarkable.

Throughout the summer, you’ll build practical skills, learn from experienced mentors, make connections across DI and leave with meaningful experience you can take back to school and into your career.

You’ll work hard, learn a lot and have some fun along the way.

As a Fabricator Intern, you won’t just get to see DI’s projects come to life—you’ll help build them.

You’ll work hands‑on alongside DI's experienced fabrication team to construct real client projects using a wide variety of materials, tools and techniques. Our work is highly custom, which means you could be building something for a professional sports venue, museum, corporate environment or entertainment destination—and the next project may be completely different.

You’ll learn what it takes to turn drawings, designs and raw materials into finished experiences while gaining practical experience in a professional fabrication environment.

If you like working with your hands, figuring out how things go together and seeing something tangible at the end of the day, this is an internship where you’ll get to do exactly that.
