NANYTE Pte. Ltd. is a Singapore-based deep-tech company that designs and manufactures precision instruments for the semiconductor, photonics, and advanced-manufacturing world. Our flagship product, NANYTE BEAM, is a compact maskless lithography system — think of it as a desktop-scale machine that "prints" microscopic patterns down to sub-micron features, used by universities, national labs, and R&D teams in over 50 locations worldwide. Alongside BEAM we build lens printers, magneto-optical microscopes, and industrial autofocus modules.
We are a small, hands-on engineering team where interns work directly with the founder and senior engineers — not fetch coffee. If you like taking machines apart, understanding how they tick, and building things that actually get shipped to customers, you'll fit right in.
Industry: Precision instruments / semiconductor equipment
Location: 126 Joo Seng Rd. Moving to a new premise at 1 MacTaggart Road in Q3.

We're looking for a hands-on Mechanical Engineering Intern to work on hardware projects and turning published designs, BOMs, and documentation into working physical builds on our bench.
What you'll do:
- Research and follow promising open-source machine projects (motion systems, 3D printers, CNC/positioning rigs, optical/mechatronic builds, etc.) and evaluate them for our use.
- Recreate these machines from open-source documentation — sourcing parts, reading through BOMs and assembly guides, and building the hardware yourself.
- 3D-model and modify parts in CAD (SolidWorks or similar), and 3D-print / fabricate custom components where the original design needs adapting.
- Assemble mechanical and electromechanical systems: frames, linear stages, motors, drivers, and wiring.
- Bring up and test builds — troubleshoot mechanical, motion, and integration issues, and document what worked and what didn't.
- Keep clear build notes and documentation so the work is reproducible by the team.
What we're looking for:
- Currently pursuing a diploma or degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field.
- Genuinely enjoys building things with your hands — a personal maker/DIY/robotics/FYP portfolio is a big plus.
- Comfortable reading technical documentation and open-source project repositories (GitHub, forums, wikis).
- Working knowledge of SolidWorks and 3D printing.
- Basic electronics / wiring / microcontroller familiarity (Arduino, ESP32, stepper drivers) is a bonus, not a must.
- Self-driven, resourceful, and not afraid to troubleshoot when a build doesn't work the first time.
What you'll get:
- Real ownership of a project from research to a working machine.
- Direct mentorship from practicing engineers building commercial precision equipment.
- Exposure to how a real deep-tech product company operates end-to-end.
