Mechanical Engineer in Training (MET) is a learning position for a new engineering degreed graduate. Under the supervision of more experienced engineers or supervisors, the MET executes simple mechanical tasks and product updates and analysis. The MET may modify existing or develop new designs, parts or assemblies but does so in limited, defined areas of research and development, prototyping, and drafting. The MET is expected to follow instructions, and pay close attention to the requests of more senior engineers. The MET designs parts and assemblies based on the concepts and ideas of others. The MET may work in one or many areas of product development and is expected to follow through on tasks from initial design to implementation. The MET job may include assignments involving part design, creating supporting product documentation and information, tracking and resolving sourcing issues, assembling prototypes, resolving production issues, responding to service and quality issues, product use and testing, component qualifying and coordinating activities with other departments.

This particular role is for the writing of software requirements for a machine tool. Which means that there must be an understanding of how a machinist would use the machine. It also requires knowledge of how the electro-mechanical systems operate
