Python Programming Internship Jobs in Massachusetts

Design Engineering Intern - Industrial Flow Instrumentation Systems

Panametrics is seeking motivated Engineering Interns to support the development, testing, and validation of piezoelectric transducer systems used in industrial flow measurement applications. This internship is ideal for students who enjoy handson engineering, experimental work, and exposure to realworld product development.

About the Role

As an Engineering Intern, you will work alongside experienced engineers supporting mechanical, electrical, and firmware development activities for both clampon and wetted ultrasonic transducer systems. You'll gain exposure to multiphysics concepts, prototype evaluation, and labbased testing workflows that contribute directly to product performance and reliability.

Your work will help advance technologies used in demanding industrial environments, supporting the same engineering teams responsible for the design and validation of advanced piezoelectric transducer assemblies.

Please note: This is a cross-disciplinary role; candidates are not expected to have experience in all areas but should be eager to learn through hands-on work.

As an Engineering Intern, you will be responsible for:

• Support laboratory testing, including setup, data collection, and documentation
• Support prototype builds, basic assembly tasks, and handson evaluation of flowmeter components
• Perform environmental and performance testing under engineer supervision
• Assist in correlating simulation predictions with hardware behavior, referencing test data and observations
• Contribute to simple coding or automation tasks (Python, MATLAB, C/C++ as applicable) to streamline test workflows
• Create or update test procedures, lab documentation, and engineering records
• Assist with root cause investigations by gathering data, running controlled experiments, and summarizing findings
• Collaborate with design and manufacturing engineers on crossfunctional tasks
• Support CAD model updates, drawing revisions, and other basic CAD tasks (depending on skill level)

What We're Looking For:

To be successful in this role you will have:

• Currently pursuing a BS in Engineering, Applied Physics, Computer Science or another related field
• Interest in ultrasonics, electromechanical systems, and instrumentation
• Comfortable with handson lab work, tools, and instrumentation
• Basic familiarity with CAD (based on engineering discipline)
• Exposure to C/C++, Python, MATLAB, or similar scientific computing languages
• Strong problemsolving skills and curiosity about how physical systems behave
• Ability to work effectively in a team-oriented, experimental, and fast-paced environment

Strong Candidates will also have:

• Coursework or experience in SolidWorks, acoustics, vibrations, and materials (Mechanical)
• Coursework or experience in Altium, Microelectronics, Signals/Controls, HDL (Electrical)
• Coursework or experience in Computer Architecture & embedded development (CS)
• Experience with test equipment (oscilloscopes, function generators, DAQ systems)
• Interest in flow measurement, and industrial instrumentation
• Familiarity with data analysis or basic signal processing
• Prior hands-on project experience (clubs, labs, personal builds, capstone work)

What You'll Gain:

• Real-world experience supporting the development of industrial instrumentation systems
• Exposure to full design lifecycle, from modeling and design to testing and validation
• Hands-on opportunities to assemble, install, configure, test and evaluate high precision industrial systems
• Mentorship from engineers responsible for products designed for demanding industrial environments and applications
• Experience contributing to products used in industrial and hazardous environments

Hourly range: $25.00 to $28.50. Several factors contribute to actual salary, including experience in a similar role or performing comparable job responsibilities, skills, training, and other qualifications.
