Posted 4 days ago

Job description

Internship Duration: May 2026 - August 2026 

Role Summary

Amperesand is working to develop, build, test, and validate a ground-up redesigned next-generation solid state transformer (SST) and the power stage modules (PSMs) that convert power from medium-voltage AC to customer-facing DC output.  This internship will include building and testing of prototype units, root cause analysis of issues found, and design and changes of parts to fix or improve.   

Responsibilities: 

  • UtilizeCAD software to create detailed mechanical designs.  3DX/Catia experience preferred but not required. 
  • Model and design complex electro-mechanical parts, including plastics, sheet metal, insulators, magnetic components, and high-voltage connectors.
  • Perform mechanical design analysisby means offirst principal calculation or simulation with commercial software, including structural FEA, thermal CFD, vibration, and fatigue assessments. 
  • Solve packaging challenges involving electrical isolation, sealing, thermal dissipation, EMI/EMC shielding, and mechanical shock/vibration.
  •  Perform prototype development, fabrication, assembly, and mechanical testing of new designs.
  •  Support root-cause analysis of design issues in pilot or production builds and lead iterative improvements. 
  •  Define and execute validation test plans including structural, thermal, and environmental testing. 
  • 2D drawings with GD&T for production and inspection.
  • Create engineering documentation, tolerance stacks, BOMs, and release packages through PLM systems.
  •  Collaborate cross-functionally with electrical, thermal, firmware and controls, manufacturing, test, and industrial design teams.
  •  Work closely with suppliers to optimize DFM, DFA, and tooling strategies for high-volume production. 

Qualifications: 

  • Final year undergraduate standing or graduate study inMechanical Engineering or a closely-related field. 
  • Expertise in CAD modeling using 3D EXPERIENCE (CATIA V6/V5), SolidWorks, NX, or Creo. 
  •  Deep understanding of mechanical fundamentals-statics, dynamics, heat transfer, and materials.
  • Working knowledge of materials: metals (aluminum, steel), plastics, ceramics, gaskets, potting compounds.
  • Comfortable with root-cause analysis, failure mode resolution, and mechanical reliability testing.
  • Passion for product innovation, sustainability, and enabling electrification through engineering excellence.

Bonus Qualifications: 

  • Strong background in structural, thermal, and vibration analysis using commercial software,e.g.Ansys 
  • Proficiency in GD&T, tolerance analysis, and DFM/DFA principles. 
  • Familiarity with PCBAs, connectors, and mechanical integration of high-density electronic assemblies.
  • Experience with high-volume manufacturing processes such as injection molding, die casting, extrusion, and sheet metal forming.
  • Experience with medium- to high-voltage systems and insulation coordination (creepage, clearance, potting, sealing).
  • Experience working in Agile development environments, including task management and sprint planning using Scrum methodologies and tools like Jira.

Please note: This role requires working on-site 5 days a week. We do not offer hybrid or remote options. 

Compensation: $30 - $45/hour depending on location and level of experience
