Responsible for learning the practical application of engineering principles through participation in the collection, processing, and evaluation of data. This involves performing various engineering-related calculations and analyses of limited scope and under close supervision.

Entry-level staff support engineering design projects with the following responsibilities:

• Under supervision, gathers data and prepares simple calculations.
• Under supervision, prepares simple system/structural designs.
• Gathers data for specifications.
• Gathers data and prepares simple bid tabulations.
• Gathers data for reports/studies.
• Communicates technical information and results in a clear and concise manner that is usable by other project team members and supervisors.
• Gains familiarity with and applies the accepted standards and processes to assigned project tasks.
• Completes assignments within allocated time frames.
• Develops personal capabilities to the fullest on assigned projects, in order to grow professionally.

We do not sponsor employees for work authorization in the U.S. for this position.

• A Bachelor's or Master's of Science in Mechanical Engineering, Engineering Mechanics, Aerospace, or Structural/Civil Engineering with an emphasis in solid mechanics, structural analysis, theory of elasticity, metallurgy, and finite element analysis
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Proficiency with MS Office applications

• A Bachelor’s or Master’s of Science from an ABET Engineering Accreditation Commission-approved program
• Successful completion of the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam, and designation as an Engineer in Training
• Previous, related internship or co-op experience
• Familiarity with AutoPIPE and PIPESTRESS software
