Engineering Intern - Mechanical & Data Analysis (Recording Head Technology)

About our group:

The Characterization and Analytic Group (CAG) supports the development of advanced Recording Head Technology at Seagate. Within CAG, the Mechanical Electrical Integration (MechEI) team, based in Teparuk, Thailand, focuses on understanding how mechanical and electrical behavior at the recording head (transducer) level impacts product performance.

Our team develops test solutions and data analysis methods that help Recording Head Design teams learn from experiments and improve future designs. We work as part of a global engineering team, collaborating closely with Operation team, Test Developers and Recording Head Designers in Thailand and USA.

About the role - you will:

· Contribute to the development and improvement of software tools used to analyze mechanical test data.

· Work with a variety of engineering datasets, including:

o Frequency Response Function (FRF)

o Physical Failure Analysis (pFA) topography

o Fly height and related measurements

· Support data quality checking and develop visualizations that help engineers interpret test results more effectively.

· Learn to automate data processing workflows for large datasets used in engineering experiments.

· Create clear and easy‑to‑understand plots, charts, and visual summaries for engineering users.

· Collaborate closely with your mentor and international teammates to understand user needs and incrementally improve tools.

About you:

· Willingness to learn and ask questions

· Logical thinking and basic problem-solving skills

· Interest in programming, data analysis, or engineering tools

· Openness to feedback and teamwork

· Comfort communicating and collaborating in a diverse, international environment

Your experience includes:

· Currently studying bachelor’s degree in Mechanical engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Computer Engineering, Data Science or a related field

· Basic programming experience in Python, C, or similar languages

· Familiarity with handling data in tools such as Excel, JMP, SQL, or equivalent

· Basic understanding of data visualization (graphs, plots, dashboards, trend analysis)

You might also have:

· Exposure to mechanical or electromechanical test data (e.g., vibration, frequency response, surface topography)

· Experience with scripting, automation, or tool development for engineering applications

· Ability to communicate in English for technical discussions and collaboration

· Interest in recording head technology, precision mechanics, or advanced hardware system
