Information Technology$34k–$51k/yrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "About TTM" description, then "We are looking for talented..." then "Duties and Responsibilities:", "Essential Knowledge and Skills:", "Education and Experience:", "Compensation:" etc. Also "Additional compensation:" etc. Also "Export Statement:" and EEO etc which we must remove (boilerplate). Also "Additional information can be found at www.ttm.com" maybe part of about? We'll keep substantive info.
We need headings: for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use only those headings if content exists. We need to map sections.
We have:
- About TTM (company description) maybe "About the role"? Actually "About the role" heading is for role description. We have "We are looking for talented..." which is role overview. Could treat as "About the role". Also there is "About TTM" company description; maybe we can include under "About the role" or separate? The instruction: Use
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use only those headings if content exists. We need to map sections.
We have:
- About TTM (company description) maybe "About the role"? Actually "About the role" heading is for role description. We have "We are looking for talented..." which is role overview. Could treat as "About the role". Also there is "About TTM" company description; maybe we can include under "About the role" or separate? The instruction: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should use those exact headings when appropriate. We have content for About the role (role overview). Responsibilities (Duties and Responsibilities). Requirements (Essential Knowledge and Skills? maybe Qualifications). Skills (Essential Knowledge and Skills includes skills). Education and Experience could be Qualifications. Benefits? Not mentioned except maybe "Additional compensation: An annual or quarterly company bonus may apply..." and shift premium. That's compensation/benefits. Pay section: we have compensation range. Schedule? Not mentioned. So we may include Pay and Benefits sections.
We must not create sections with filler like "not specified". So only include sections where we have real content.
Thus sections:
- About the role
: include the paragraph(s) describing role: "We are looking for talented and highly motivated individuals to assist our RF/microwave engineering team with the design and development of leading-edge products for military and space-based applications. Under direct supervision, you will design and simulate RF/microwave components and circuits and gain knowledge in RF design, manufacturing, and test of microwave products."
- Responsibilities
: list duties from "Duties and Responsibilities:" bullet list. Use - .
-
Qualifications
: maybe combine Education and Experience and Essential Knowledge and Skills? But we have separate headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We could map:
- Requirements: maybe "Essential Knowledge and Skills" (knowledge/skills). But we also have Skills heading. Could split: Requirements = "Essential Knowledge and Skills" (knowledge and skills). Skills = maybe same? Better to follow instruction: Use headings as appropriate; we can have both Requirements and Skills if content distinct. Let's see content:
Essential Knowledge and Skills: list of knowledge/skills items.
Education and Experience: Majoring in Electrical or Computer Engineering. Strong physics and mathematics course load. Electromagnetics coursework preferred. 3D modelling experience desired. This internship is for Summer 2026.
Thus we could have:
- Requirements
: Education and Experience (maybe also include "Essential Knowledge and Skills"? but that's more skills). Actually Requirements often includes education/experience. We'll put education/experience there.
- Skills
: Essential Knowledge and Skills list.
- Pay
: compensation range and additional compensation details.
- Benefits
: maybe not present; we have bonus and shift premium which could be considered compensation/benefits. Could put under Pay? The instruction says include Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections only if posting actually states them. It mentions "Additional compensation: An annual or quarterly company bonus may apply based on position assignment. Positions hired for alternative shift may be eligible for a shift premium based on the assigned shift and location." That's compensation/benefits. Could treat as Benefits. We'll create Benefits section with that info.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must remove boilerplate: Export Statement, EEO, etc. Also "Additional information can be found at www.ttm.com" maybe keep as part of About TTM? Might be considered navigation? It's just a link; we could keep as part of About the role? Probably safe to keep as a sentence.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from the sections we include.
Let's extract exact text.
About TTM paragraph: "TTM Technologies, Inc. is a leading global manufacturer of technology products, including mission systems, radio frequency (“RF”) components, RF microwave/microelectronic assemblies, and technologically advanced printed circuit boards (“PCB”s). TTM stands for time-to-market, representing how TTM's time-critical, one-stop design, engineering and manufacturing services enable customers to reduce the time required to develop new products and bring them to market. Additional information can be found at www.ttm.com"
We might include that under About the role? Actually About the role is about the role, not company. But we could include company description under About the role? Might be okay. However we have separate "About TTM" heading not in allowed list. We could incorporate into About the role paragraph as background. The instruction: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use those for section headings. Likely they want only those headings. So we should not add other headings like "About TTM". So we need to fit that content somewhere, maybe under About the role as a preamble. That seems acceptable.
Thus About the role section will contain both the company description and the role overview.
Now Responsibilities: list each duty.
Let's copy duties:
- Work independently or within a team environment.
- Work with other interns, test engineering, and engineering technicians on specific program tasks including test procedure development, test station development and data reduction software.
- Perform review before design release.
- Prepare presentations for gated design reviews.
- Design and evaluate test circuits.
- Understand manufacturing approach and limitations.
- Ensure that project schedules are met.
- Work with RF engineering to understand basic microwave component theory and practical realization.
- Design and evaluate components using available design and layout tools.
- Follow established standard design process.
- Provide nominal simulation results along with tolerances analysis.
- Correlate expected performance with test results.
- Perform data reduction and present results in a clear and concise manner.
- Provide support once design is in production.
- Support MRB (Material Review Board) process.
We'll put each as
- .
Now Requirements (Education and Experience):
- Majoring in Electrical or Computer Engineering.
- Strong physics and mathematics course load.
- Electromagnetics coursework preferred.
- 3D modelling experience desired.
- This internship is for Summer 2026.
Now Skills (Essential Knowledge and Skills):
List:
- A basic understanding and strong interest in microwave theory.
- Ability to design experiments, analyze the data and conduct structured problem solving.
- Basic understanding of AutoCAD, HFSS, and circuit simulation and modeling tools.
- Strong interpersonal skills.
- Strong time management skills.
- Strong analytical ability and exceptional attention to detail.
- Strong computer skills, specifically Microsoft Office and MATLAB.
- Actively pursues opportunities to expand job-related knowledge.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Now Pay:
Compensation: "Compensation ranges for roles at TTM Technologies varies depending on a wide array of factors that are considered in making compensation decisions including but not limited to skill sets; experience and training; certifications; and other business and organizational needs. The disclosed range estimate has not been adjusted for the applicable geographic differential associated with the location at which the position may be filled. At TTM Technologies, it is not typical for an individual to be hired at or near the top of the range for their role and compensation decisions are dependent on each individual set of circumstances. A reasonable estimate of the current range is: $34,212 - $51,318 Additional compensation: An annual or quarterly company bonus may apply based on position assignment. Positions hired for alternative shift may be eligible for a shift premium based on the assigned shift and location."
We need to keep all that. Might be long but okay.
Now Benefits: maybe we already included bonus and shift premium in Pay; but we could separate Benefits: "An annual or quarterly company bonus may apply based on position assignment. Positions hired for alternative shift may be eligible for a shift premium based on the assigned shift and location."
But the instruction says: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state compensation range and additional compensation. So we can have Pay section with range, and Benefits section with bonus and shift premium. However the text includes both in same paragraph; we can split.
Thus Pay: include the compensation range paragraph (first part). Benefits: include the bonus and shift premium sentences.
We must ensure not to duplicate content. We'll split:
Pay paragraph: "Compensation ranges for roles at TTM Technologies varies depending on a wide array of factors that are considered in making compensation decisions including but not limited to skill sets; experience and training; certifications; and other business and organizational needs.

Benefits paragraph: "Additional compensation: An annual or quarterly company bonus may apply based on position assignment. Positions hired for alternative shift may be eligible for a shift premium based on the assigned shift and location."
Now ensure we removed Export Statement, EEO, etc.
Now produce HTML fragment: only the sections, no extra tags.
We'll output:
