We're looking for an NPD Intern to support our New Product Development team across market research, product benchmarking, sample evaluation, documentation, and product development activities. This role offers hands-on exposure to how consumer electronics products are researched, benchmarked, validated, and taken from concept to launch while working closely with Engineering, Design, Quality, Supply Chain, and Marketing teams.

• Benchmark hardware products across features, specifications, materials, pricing, and user experience.
• Track competitor hardware launches, teardown reports, and market trends in consumer electronics.
• Maintain product comparison sheets, trackers, and evaluation reports.
• Coordinate with Engineering, Design, Quality, Supply Chain, and Marketing teams.
• Use AI tools effectively for research, summaries, documentation, and faster day-to-day execution while validating the final output.

Requirements:

• Final-year student or recent graduate from Engineering or a related field.
• Strong interest in consumer electronics and product development.
• Good analytical and structured thinking.
• Comfortable with Excel/Google Sheets and AI tools.
• Able to take ownership of assigned work and communicate findings clearly.
• Previous internship in product, hardware, research, or consumer electronics is a plus.
