Engineering Internship - Industrial Facilities

Company Description

We are Olsson. We engineer and design solutions that improve the world around us. As a company, we promise to always be responsive, transparent, and focused on results – for our people, our clients, and our company.

We’re a people-centric firm, so it’s no surprise our greatest asset is our people. The impact this creates is an environment that encourages our people to grow and be creative with their talents. This approach builds a culture that is uniquely Olsson. It allows us to grow our people as we grow our business. This, in turn, creates a lasting impact on the world around us.

As a summer 2027 student intern with our Industrial Facilities Engineering and Design team, within the Process Engineering group, you will perform meaningful, hands‑on work that will transform your classroom experience and help you envision your future career. Working alongside experienced engineers, you will assist with the planning, design, and evaluation of process systems for a variety of industrial projects. Your experience may include supporting process calculations, equipment selection, engineering studies, technical documentation, and design deliverables.

You may also participate in site visits and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to develop solutions that improve efficiency, safety, reliability, and sustainability. At Olsson, you'll gain valuable technical experience, develop professional skills, and learn how engineering solutions are applied to real‑world challenges. This internship will provide exposure to our collaborative culture while helping you evaluate Olsson as a future career choice.
