Engineering Quality Intern
Job Purpose
The intern will get hands-on exposure to real-world engineering in a manufacturing environment and drive data‑driven decision‑making across R&D, Operations, Quality, and Supply Chain. Your primary project—Design To The Target (DTTT)—focuses on collecting critical tire component data, quantifying variation, and collaborating with the R&D team to calculate specifications and tolerances that meet performance/cost targets. You’ll support continuous improvement by baselining current performance, analyzing root causes, and validating post‑improvement results. This position reports to the R&D Manager.
Key Responsibilities
- Working on the Design To The Target- DTTT project. The project goal is to improve specification accuracy and understanding process variation.
- Map tire component characteristics (e.g., thickness, width, mass, durometer hardness, cord EPI/angle) and identify key sources of variation across processes.
- MSA-Measuring system analysis may be conducted before data collection.
- Prepare reports and data summaries to support tire specification design and continuous improvement activities.
- Assist in identifying the areas for improvement within manufacturing and engineering workflows.
- Collect, analyze, and interpret the data to identify trends and improvement opportunities
- Support tire specifications under guidance of the R&D team.
- Participate in root cause analysis and corrective action activities using structured problem-solving tools.
