Job description

Join our team as a Reliability Engineer Intern/Co-op and gain hands-on experience supporting the performance, reliability, and longevity of mill assets. In this role, you'll work alongside experienced reliability and maintenance professionals to support predictive and preventative maintenance programs using industry-standard tools and technologies.
This opportunity is ideal for an engineering student who enjoys problem-solving, learning how complex industrial systems operate, and contributing to reliability improvements in a dynamic, real-world environment.
The successful candidate will likely start in January or June working full time M-F 8-hour days for a duration of 9-15 months. Candidates with limited availability to 3-4 months (Summer intern) may also be considered.
What You'll Do
As a Reliability Engineer Intern/Co-op, you will:
  • Support predictive and preventative maintenance activities to improve equipment reliability and uptime.
  • Assist in collecting and analyzing data from vibration monitoring, lubrication routes, infrared thermography, ultrasound, and other condition-monitoring technologies.
  • Help trend equipment condition data to identify risks, troubleshoot potential issues, and recommend corrective actions.
  • Participate in reliability improvement projects such as Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA), Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA), and work management enhancements.
  • Partner with operations, engineering, procurement, and maintenance teams to gain exposure to cross-functional problem-solving.
  • Support documentation efforts, reporting, and updating reliability databases and KPIs.
  • Shadow reliability engineers to learn best practices in inspection, diagnostics, and equipment health management.

What We're Looking For
  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial, Manufacturing or related Engineering field.
  • Strong interest in equipment reliability, industrial systems, maintenance engineering, or data-driven problem-solving.
  • Exposure to or willingness to learn condition-monitoring technologies (e.g., vibration analysis, lubrication, infrared thermography).
  • Solid mechanical aptitude with the ability to connect data to physical equipment.
  • Strong analytical, communication, and teamwork skills.
  • Self-motivated, curious, and comfortable working in both office and field environments.
  • Proficient with Microsoft Office; familiarity with data or maintenance software is a plus.
  • The ability to work full-time in this temporary role for approximately 10-15 months is strongly preferred. However, candidates who are only available for a three-month summer assignment may also be considered.
  • Work authorization in the United States is required. Sappi does not provide sponsorship.

What You'll Gain
  • Real-world engineering experience in a large manufacturing environment.
  • Hands-on exposure to predictive maintenance tools and reliability methodologies.
  • Professional mentorship from experienced reliability engineers.
  • Opportunities to contribute to meaningful projects that drive operational improvements.
  • Development of technical, analytical, and leadership skills applicable to a future engineering career.
