The Opportunity

Orbitworks is a sovereign aerospace and advanced technology company in the UAE. We build and test real satellite systems — and our interns work on projects that matter from day one. This is not a shadowing programme. You will own a defined project, work alongside experienced engineers and business professionals, and present outcomes to leadership.

What You'll Do

Trade-off study and selection of a local honeycomb panel supplier. The project covers compiling panel drawings, identifying manufacturing operations, evaluating potential suppliers against ECSS standards, validating vendor processes through coupon/sample fabrication, performing NDT & DTs on panels, and generating a qualification report.

What You'll Deliver

 

  • Technical report outlining supplier validation results
  • Supplier recommendation based on technical, commercial, and programmatic trade-off
  • NDT & DT test results and process verification documentation
  • Completed vendor qualification package

What You'll Learn

  • Aerospace composite and structural materials knowledge
  • Engineering drawing interpretation and manufacturing process engineering
  • Supplier evaluation, ECSS standards familiarity, and quality assurance
  • NDT/DT testing and validation skills
  • Technical documentation and V&V reporting
