<div class="content-intro">ABOUT ROCKET LAB Rocket Lab is the end-to-end space company building rockets, spacecraft, and critical subsystems that keep the world connected, protected, expand humanity’s reach to the Moon, Mars, and beyond. We move fast, build real hardware for meaningful missions, and make the impossible routine. Come shape the future with us.</div>ABOUT THE ROLE  We're looking for a motivated intern to join our Maintenance team at our Auckland Production Complex. As a Facilities Maintenance Manufacturing Engineer Intern, you will play a key role in developing and implementing standardised maintenance work instructions that will become a permanent part of Rocket Lab's maintenance procedures.  As we scale our operations to support both Electron and Neutron programmes, we're maturing our maintenance planning processes to include systematic execution of Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) activities. You will create structured work instructions for our technicians, implement them into our CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management System), and develop training materials that can be deployed across multiple Rocket Lab sites.  Your work will directly support our AS9100 aerospace quality standards and help us develop a complete end-to-end production system. You'll work alongside experienced maintenance technicians to validate your instructions in real production environments, iterate based on lessons learned, and create scalable processes for other Rocket Lab facilities.  This is an opportunity to work on real operational challenges and contribute to missions that are literally reaching for the stars.  WHAT YOU WILL DO  Work Instruction Development:  <ul> <li data-leveltext=""
