Amazon Robotics is seeking a talented and motivated Product Development Engineer Co-Op to join their dynamic team for a 6-month co-op from January through July 2025. This role offers hands-on experience in implementing best-in-class processes within a complex design and manufacturing environment. Key responsibilities include:

  • Applying Design for Excellence (DFx) principles during the new product introduction (NPI) process
  • Integrating customer requirements for safety, manufacturability, deployability, and supportability into new product designs
  • Collaborating cross-functionally to develop and improve DFx feedback and services
  • Guiding product lifecycle changes and leading bill of material (BOM) strategy
  • Driving technology feasibility and improvement projects
  • Using advanced problem-solving techniques to identify and address technical root causes

The ideal candidate should have a strong foundation in both design and manufacturing principles, combined with the capability to make impactful business decisions. Practical experience through prior internships, co-ops, or relevant extracurricular projects is highly preferred.

This co-op opportunity will be based out of the Greater Boston Area in two state-of-the-art facilities in Westborough, MA and North Reading, MA. Both campuses provide direct access to robotics testing labs and manufacturing facilities.

If you're passionate about problem-solving, thrive in a collaborative team setting, and want to contribute to the success of a leading technology company, this role offers an excellent opportunity to apply your technical skills in a fast-paced, innovative environment and make a tangible impact on the product development process.
