Electrical Engineering Intern

The role

You will design, simulate, build, and test electrical and mechanical systems. You will participate in prototyping, debugging, and production support for batteries, inverters, and microgrid interconnection devices.

What you will do

• Collaborate with senior engineers to design, simulate, build, and test electrical and mechanical systems.
• Participate in hands-on prototyping, debugging, and iterative testing of early- and late-stage hardware.
• Support both R&D and production efforts from first breadboard to high-volume manufacturing.
• Help diagnose and solve real-world performance, thermal, and integration issues.
• Contribute to system documentation, test procedures, and design reviews.

Required qualifications

• Current junior or senior in an undergraduate program, or a graduate student, in Engineering, Physics, Math, or a related technical field.
• Strong understanding of electrical or mechanical engineering fundamentals (depending on focus).
• Passion for hands-on hardware development and building things that work in the real world.
• Curious, self-motivated, and eager to work on hard problems with real-world impact.

Nice to have

• Electrical focus: familiarity with schematic capture and PCB layout tools (e.g., KiCad, Altium) is a plus.
