Electrical Engineering Intern

Long Beach, California, United States

At Mantari Industries, we’re replacing yesterday’s public sector weather systems with a full stack, AI-native platform that senses, models, and predicts Earth’s atmosphere and oceans in near real time. Our mission is to sense Earth in its entirety — oceans, skies, and space — and close the gap between what nature does and what humanity knows. By building a distributed network of sensors fused with breakthrough AI, Mantari transforms raw environmental signals into actionable intelligence so that the world’s most critical outcomes, from global trade and securing grids to defending nations, are guided not by uncertainty, but by foresight. Our autonomous edge sensing fleets, deep learning forecast models, and integrated customer decision engines will create the most precise weather intelligence on the planet—empowering industry, strengthening climate resilience, providing vital intelligence to American warfighters, and opening billion-dollar markets that don’t exist yet. 

Backed by premier venture capital and led by engineers and scientists who’ve landed rockets and pioneered novel AI forecast techniques, we move fast, own the hard problems end to end, and measure success in real world impact. If you want to build frontier tech with outsized consequences, welcome aboard.

About This Role

Summer internships will range between the months of May and August. All dates dependent upon the university schedule of the selected students. Internships are full-time and on-site in Los Angeles, CA.

The Mantari Electrical Engineering Internship provides an opportunity to work on next-generation sensor electronics and integrated platform systems, contributing directly to products deployed in defense and weather applications. Interns will join a fast-paced team environment, collaborating on circuit design, board bring-up, and test efforts for both prototype and production hardware.

As a lean, early-stage team, every contributor has a meaningful impact, and that includes our interns. You'll take on real ownership of projects, work directly alongside senior engineers, and see your contributions shape products that are actively being delivered to customers. Internships at Mantari are optimal for students looking to grow technically and professionally while working on high-impact projects in a startup environment. We're dedicated to providing an experience that will let your decisions and contributions help drive Mantari's success

Key Responsibilities

  • Contribute to the design and development of sensor electronics, including schematic capture and PCB layout for field-deployable platforms
  • Support test campaign planning and execution, including test fixture design, board bring-up, and data analysis
  • Create schematics, PCB layouts, and perform basic electrical analysis (signal integrity, power budgets, etc.)
  • Participate in design reviews and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to meet electrical and integration requirements
  • Perform hands-on soldering, wire harnessing, or support board assembly and rework when needed
  • Support field test operations, including electronics integration, deployment, and on-site troubleshooting

Basic Qualifications

  • Junior or Senior academic standing
  • Currently enrolled in a bachelor’s degree program in Engineering, Physics, or related technical field
  • Strong understanding of core engineering concepts, with completed coursework in:
    • Circuit Analysis
    • Electronics
    • Signals and Systems
  • Experience using engineering tools such as EDA tools (e.g., Altium, KiCad), MATLAB, and/or oscilloscopes/lab instruments
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills and ability to thrive in a team-oriented environment

Bonus Qualifications

  • Previous internship or co-op experience in a technical role
  • Experience with PCB assembly, soldering, or wire harnessing
  • Demonstrated success in technical extracurriculars (e.g., Rocket Club, Formula SAE, etc.)

Projects You May Work On

Intern projects will be tailored to company needs and student skillsets closer to the start date. Example projects include:

  • Sensor interface and signal conditioning circuit design
  • PCB design and board bring-up for radar and weather sensor systems
  • Electrical test fixture development and validation support
  • Embedded firmware prototyping and integration support
  • Power system design and thermal management for field-deployable sensor platforms

Weather shapes every decision made on Earth. At Mantari you’ll write code that moves metal, launch sensors that tame storms, and see your work ship in weeks—not years. Join us to build the world’s first private full-stack weather platform and leave your fingerprints on infrastructure that will outlast us all. Apply now—let’s create the future of weather, together.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
