Mechanical Engineer Intern; Summer

Mechanical Engineer Intern (Summer 2027)

Torus is headquartered in Utah and is expanding manufacturing at our 545,000-square-foot facility in Salt Lake City called Giga One.
We are the world’s first mesh energy infrastructure, uniting communities through resilient, sustainable, and intelligent power. We design, engineer, manufacture, install, and support our systems end-to-end, standing behind them throughout their lifecycle. Torus systems help reduce costs, lower emissions, and protect facilities from outages, while strengthening the security and reliability of the broader utility grid. Torus is committed to American manufacturing, engineering excellence, and building energy systems that last.

Torus has raised over $267 million from investors like Magnetar, Mercado, ICONIQ and Origin Ventures. The investments are helping to accelerate deployment of modular power plants across utilities, data centers, and industrial sectors. This investor confidence reflects the strength of our team, technology as well as the scale of the problem we are solving.

At Torus, you will be part of something larger than a single product or technology. Your work will help build energy infrastructure that supports and strengthens our electrical grid, critical systems, industry, and communities for decades to come. We value accountability, collaboration, and clear thinking. We are looking for people who want to solve hard problems and build things that matter.

At Torus, we're building the world's first mesh energy infrastructure, systems that protect communities, reduce costs, and strengthen the grid for decades to come. As a Mechanical Engineering Intern , you'll contribute to the design, validation, and building of the sub-systems that make resilient, scalable energy storage possible.

This internship sits at the intersection of hands-on engineering and systems thinking. You'll learn how mechanical engineering decisions ripple across the full product lifecycle—from early concept through manufacturing—and how to balance cost, reliability, manufacturability, and quality as interconnected problems. You'll develop the kind of thinking that separates good engineers from great ones: understanding not just what you're building, but why it matters and how it fits into the bigger picture.

You'll thrive here if you like hard problems, want to take real ownership of projects from sketch to spec, and care about accelerating the energy transition. We value speed and quality equally—moving fast matters, but so does building it right the first time. You'll work alongside experienced mechanical and electrical engineers who'll mentor you, challenge your assumptions, and help you develop the habits and instincts of a great hardware engineer.
