About the role

Avient Corporation is seeking a technical intern to work part-time during the Fall 2026 and Spring 2027 semesters at the corporate headquarters in Avon Lake, OH. This paid internship within our polymer lab may lead to a Summer 2027 internship. You will work with a senior scientist to perform polymer analyses using FT-IR, XRF, and thermal analysis. The role requires strict safety practices and the ability to multi-task in a fast-paced lab environment.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
