Where Heat Meets Precision – Forge Your Future with ATI

ATI transforms metal into mission-critical components that power aerospace, defense, energy, and medical innovation. As a Process Engineering Intern focused on Melt Process Engineering, you’ll support the formulating, primary melting, and final melting of titanium, nickel, and specialty alloys-playing a direct role in how high-value materials are produced for high-performance products.

You’ll collaborate with experienced engineers and operators to improve throughput, reduce defects, and drive process efficiency on assets such as plasma cold hearth furnaces, vacuum arc remelt furnaces, and raw material control systems.

What You’ll Work On

Internship projects may include:

• Analyzing process data (melt rate, vacuum level, furnace environment) to identify furnace uptime improvement opportunities.
• Supporting trials to improve raw materials weighout, reduce turnaround time, or evaluate equipment upgrades.
• Assisting in root cause analysis of melt defects, process anomalies, or chemistry deviations.
• Evaluating and improving standard work procedures, including material handling and furnace control systems.
• Participating in melting trials for new products or flow path qualifications.

What You’ll Gain

• Hands-on exposure to aerospace-alloy melting operations, across multiple different melting technologies
• Collaboration with cross-functional teams including Technology, Operations, and Quality
• experience with real-world production data, manufacturing process improvements, and metallurgical principles
• Mentorship from ATI engineers and leadership visibility
• Consideration for return internships or full-time rotational opportunities

Basic Qualifications

• BS. candidate in:
  • Materials Science & Engineering
  • Mechanical Engineering
  • Metallurgical Engineering
  • Industrial, Chemical or Manufacturing Engineering
• GPA of 3.0+ (preferred)

Preferred Qualifications

• Strong interest in melting and processing of metals
• Familiarity with:
  • Excel, Python, or Minitab/JMP for data analysis
  • Stress-strain behavior, microstructure-property relationships, and process modeling
• Ability to work in plant and shop-floor environments
