Engineering Co-Op

We are seeking a motivated Engineering Co-Op student to join our team for a three-semester rotational experience designed to provide broad exposure to tire engineering, product development, manufacturing, and testing.

This opportunity is ideal for an engineering student early in their academic career—preferably a student entering their second year—who is interested in gaining hands-on experience and exploring different areas of engineering within the tire industry.

Over the course of three rotations, Co-Op students will have the opportunity to work across several engineering disciplines, which may include Advanced Engineering, Tire Development, Mold Design, and Tire Testing
. Each rotation will provide exposure to different engineering processes, projects, tools, and cross-functional teams while allowing the student to build a strong technical foundation.

Depending on business needs and the student's interests, rotations may include:

• Support development of new technologies, materials, processes, and engineering concepts.

• Assist with engineering analysis, research, and technical problem-solving.

• Participate in design and development projects from concept through evaluation.

• Work with engineers and cross-functional teams to investigate and solve technical challenges.

• Support the design and development of new tire products.

• Assist engineers with product specifications, design changes, data analysis, and performance evaluation.

• Participate in development activities from initial concepts through prototype and testing phases.

• Collaborate with engineering, manufacturing, testing, and other technical teams.

• Support the design and development of tire molds and related tooling.

• Assist with CAD modeling, drawings, design reviews, and engineering documentation.

• Gain exposure to design for manufacturing and the relationship between tire design and manufacturing processes.

• Work with engineers and manufacturing partners to address design and production requirements.

• Support laboratory and field testing of tire products and components.

• Assist with test setup, data collection, analysis, and reporting.

• Help evaluate tire performance against engineering requirements and specifications.

• Work alongside test engineers to investigate results and identify opportunities for improvement.

• Apply engineering principles to real-world product and process development projects.

• Support engineering teams with analysis, design, testing, documentation, and problem-solving.

• Collect, analyze, and interpret engineering data.

• Develop technical reports, presentations, drawings, and other engineering documentation.

• Participate in design reviews, project meetings, and cross-functional activities.

• Work safely and follow established engineering, laboratory, and testing procedures.

• Communicate technical information clearly to engineers, project teams, and other stakeholders.

• Take ownership of assigned projects and work effectively both independently and as part of a team.

• Learn and utilize engineering tools, software, and processes relevant to each rotation.

• Currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Materials Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related engineering discipline
  .

• Ideally entering the second year of an undergraduate engineering program.

• Strong interest in engineering, product development, manufacturing, or the automotive/tire industry.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

• Ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.

• Effective written and verbal communication skills.

• Demonstrated curiosity, initiative, and willingness to learn.

• Familiarity with engineering software, CAD, data analysis, or laboratory/testing environments is a plus.

• Ability to commit to a three-semester Co-Op rotation program
  .

This rotational Co-Op is designed to provide students with a broad understanding of how engineering disciplines work together to develop, manufacture, and evaluate tire products. Students will gain:

• Hands-on engineering and project experience.

• Exposure to multiple engineering disciplines and career paths.

• Experience working with experienced engineers and technical professionals.

• Opportunities to apply classroom knowledge to real-world engineering challenges.

• Experience with engineering design, analysis, testing, and manufacturing.

• A broader understanding of the tire product development…
