Engineering Intern
Redmond, Oregon, United States
During my time at Composite Approach, I was able to witness and take part in all stages of the composites engineering and manufacturing field. As an engineering intern, I was assigned a broad range of tasks, including mold design, part design, work instruction development, CNC machine programming and operation, and more. I gained a wealth of knowledge regarding the function and production of composite materials, and their importance in the aerospace sector. Composite Approach is a contract-based business, which allowed me to work on projects for companies such as EarthCruiser, Speed Aircraft, Volansi, Fenix Space, and many more. I also took part in in-house projects, such as the structural design for a composites curing oven. Working as a full-fledged team member for a small private engineering and manufacturing company provided me with invaluable experience that will undoubtedly serve me well as I continue along my engineering journey.
