Intern Cnc Programmer Jobs in Massachusetts (NOW HIRING)

Job Summary:

A Mechanical Engineer (Intern) will participate in the technical design, development, and launch of a category of products based upon an energy harvester technology (i.e. a heat-to-electricity thermoelectric generator) and other energy-related technologies, positioned for lasting impact in clean-tech for a variety of applications including automotive exhaust systems. This position requires technical and interpersonal maturity to work well within a multi-disciplinary environment as well as a pragmatic drive to deliver results towards product realization. This job is a paid position, may be full time or part time, and is flexible in terms of when (e.g. days, nights, weekends) and how many hours per week. Expertise in SolidWorks CAD is required for creating parts, assemblies, and drawings with dimensions and manufacturing tolerances. Expertise in Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is also required as well as a familiarity with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) including conjugate heat transfer among convection, conduction, and radiation. Experience in prototyping is strongly preferred, including expertise in SolidWorks CAM for creating CNC toolpaths.

Major Job Duties and Responsibilities:

• Design, analyze, fabricate, and test prototypes of an energy harvester technology involving innovative heat exchanger structures incorporating high temperature thermoelectrics.
• Create detailed mechanical designs of parts, assemblies, and drawings with dimensions and manufacturing tolerances in SolidWorks CAD.
• Model and analyze mechanical structures involving solid mechanics and heat transfer (conduction, convection) within heat exchangers, including mechanical and thermal stresses from thermal expansion and effects due to high temperature and material properties interfaces.
• Model and analyze thermal and fluidic performance to create and improve heat exchanger design.
• Develop computer models as design tools to accelerate product development.
• Design, analyze, build, and instrument test stands to test prototypes and products.
• Define specifications for parts and system. Lead vendors and suppliers to deliver to spec.
• Participate as key technical contributor within multi-disciplinary team, involving company staff and external company partners.
• Contribute to developing company’s core technologies and intellectual property.
• Document designs and results in the form of detailed drawings, reports, and presentations.
• Manage technical tasks and projects in order to meet overall program goals.

Required Skills and Experience:

• Highly-proficient technical capabilities involving detailed mechanical designs for parts, assemblies, drawings, dimensions, and tolerances using SolidWorks CAD is required.
• Analysis, modeling, and simulation of structural mechanics using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) in SolidWorks is required along with related experience.
• Analysis, modeling, and simulation of fluids and conjugate heat transfer among convection, conduction, and radiation is required. Experience in SolidWorks Flow Simulation, which is computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in SolidWorks, is strongly preferred.
• Expertise in SolidWorks CAM for creating CNC toolpaths is strongly preferred. Familiarity of Incremental Sheet Forming (ISF) is a plus.
• Experience with heat exchange and materials at high temperatures (i.e. 400 – 900 degC) is preferred as is durability / fatigue analysis from dynamic shock and vibration in automotive vehicles.
• Product development experience involving rigorous technical skills. Design for Manufacturability and Assembly (DFMA) is preferred.
• Experience with heat exchangers, thermoelectrics, and vacuum-sealed devices is preferred.
• Technical project management is preferred.
• Good communication skills, verbal and written.
• Good interpersonal skills, ability to work well in a team environment.
• Agility, adaptability, and resourcefulness within a dynamic work environment.
• Strong desire to work in a start-up company is a must. Experience in a start-up is preferred.

Required Level of Education and Experience:

Pursuing or in between the following:

B.S. in mechanical engineering -- plus at least 1 year of industry experience

or

M.S. in mechanical engineering -- industry experience is preferred
