Dyson is a global technology enterprise. We solve the problems others choose to ignore, with surprising new inventions that defy convention and simply work better. We’re driven by progress and enjoy the opportunity to continuously improve what we do. We’re growing fast and our aspirations are huge – more categories, more locations and more people.
Our scale and rapid growth make Dyson rich in new opportunities. We value new ideas and diverse perspectives, so our people are trusted with real work and responsibility from the outset. You’ll develop fast and have the chance to move into different business areas and regions. And you’ll be part of a global network of curious people – a community that supports and learns from each other.
At Dyson we do things differently. We look for the brightest new interns with the right attitude to thrive in our unique culture. We offer real jobs with real salaries and real prospects. You will have the autonomy and freedom to excel and have real impact on our business. We aim to inspire you to become our future leaders. This is why we need creative thinkers, people who are motivated and drive themselves forward.
We push the boundaries of what others have defined as possible. Our engineering approach starts with different thinking. Then we continuously refine our ideas – unwilling to compromise and driven by an obsession for finding a better way. Today we employ more than 5,800 people around the world in software/ electrical engineering, mechanical engineering and science related roles.
In a team who are always seeking new technologies and methods to make future Dyson technology possible, you will be highly motivated, creative, methodical and flexible in order to take on challenges with a pragmatic approach and inquisitive scientific mind. You will be involved in designing and building experimental rigs to investigate new technologies, analysis and interpretation of experimental data; collaborating with technology suppliers, combining experimental testing with analytical modelling to produce a design guide for new technologies; representing the research team when presenting your work to Directors for review. You will be working as part of a larger project team and have your own set of deliverables and the chance to take ownership of how these are achieved.
You will generate innovative concepts based on scientific theory through experimental test and simulation – designing, building and testing prototypes, before analysing performances and communicating findings. Also working with engineers, scientists and technical experts across a broad range of disciplines.
Working with the team and interacting across business stakeholders, you’ll be comfortable learning from others but also sharing your own knowledge, ideas and opinions.
For the duration of your internship, you will have regular performance conversations as well as opportunities for development to enable you to build your reputation within the wider team and we’ll be looking to offer our high performing interns the opportunity to return on our graduate programme.
