Role Summary:This Baton Rouge-based 12-month Engineering Co-Op is a standout opportunity for rising senior engineering students who want real, hands-on experience. You'll train just like a new hire, contribute to real customer and in-house projects, and build true field engineering skills that classrooms can't teach. From equipment walk-downs and troubleshooting to mechanical disassembly and upgrade recommendations, you'll see how rotating equipment and mechanical seal systems operate in real industrial environments.
You'll split your time between a business-casual office setting and field work alongside experienced Application Engineers-giving you a full picture of what an engineering career looks like. If you're mechanically curious, motivated to learn, and excited to develop skills that set you apart before graduation, this Baton Rouge-based 12-month co-op will give you the experience, confidence, and technical exposure to launch your engineering career.
