We seek curious, driven individuals who enjoy solving difficult problems, take ownership, and thrive in a fast-moving, hands-on engineering environment.

Areas of Opportunity

Opportunities may span areas such as:

  • Mechanical Engineering & CAD:
  • Create and update 3D models, assemblies, detailed 2D engineering drawings, and mechanical designs.
  • Support design iteration and development.
  • Electrical Engineering:
  • Support electrical design, component integration, wiring and harnesses, and related electrical systems.
  • Systems Engineering:
  • Contribute to system architecture, requirements development, component integration, and cross-functional engineering coordination.
  • Prototyping, Testing & Validation:
  • Support prototype builds, test setup and execution, data collection, troubleshooting, and design validation.
  • Manufacturing & Production Engineering:
  • Contribute to design for manufacturability, assembly processes, tooling, production methods, and process improvement.
  • Software & Controls:
  • Support embedded systems, controls, data analysis, automation, and software development for energy and powertrain systems.

Specific responsibilities will depend on the placement, your skills, and the projects you support.

What You'll Bring

  • Current enrollment in a college or university program in engineering or a related technical discipline.
  • Strong technical fundamentals and a genuine interest in building, testing, and improving real-world systems.
