If you are a Mechanical Engineering professional looking for an opportunity to apply the fundamentals of engineering to real-world product challenges, Copeland has an exciting opportunity for you.
As a member of the Applied Mechanics Lab team, you will support engineering testing, product development, supplier qualification, and failure analysis activities across Copeland's HVACR product portfolio. This role offers a unique combination of hands-on laboratory work, engineering analysis, design, testing, and problem-solving.
You will work alongside a highly experienced team of engineers and technicians, gaining exposure to a wide variety of mechanical engineering disciplines including structural analysis, testing, instrumentation, machine design, durability, vibration, fatigue, and data analysis.
This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career engineer who enjoys understanding how things work, solving technical problems, and applying engineering fundamentals to real-world products.
AS A MECHANICAL ENGINEER - APPLIED MECHANICS LAB, YOU WILL:
  • Support engineering projects related to product development, supplier qualification, and customer failure analysis.
  • Plan and execute laboratory testing on mechanical components and systems.
  • Design and develop test fixtures and experimental setups.
  • Analyze engineering test data and provide technical conclusions and recommendations.
  • Apply mechanical engineering principles to investigate product performance and durability issues.
  • Collaborate with engineers, lab technicians, and internal customers to define project objectives and testing requirements.
  • Prepare technical reports and present findings to engineering stakeholders.
  • Support continuous improvement of testing methods, procedures, and laboratory capabilities.
  • Develop expertise in durability, vibration, fatigue, materials behavior, and mechanical system performance.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
  • Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline, or equivalent relevant experience.
  • 0-2 years of engineering experience, including internships or co-op experience.
  • Strong CAD experience using NX, SolidWorks, Creo, CATIA, or similar 3D modeling software.
  • Working knowledge of Strength of Materials / Mechanics of Materials principles.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to interpret engineering test results and technical data.
  • Excellent organizational skills and willingness to learn in a collaborative team environment.
  • Legal authorization to work in the United States. Sponsorship will not be provided for this position.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
  • Internship, co-op, or professional experience in mechanical testing, product development, engineering labs, manufacturing, or design engineering.
  • Experience with laboratory testing, instrumentation, data acquisition systems, or experimental analysis.
  • Exposure to fatigue, vibration, durability, failure analysis, or structural mechanics.
  • Experience with engineering analysis tools such as MATLAB, LabVIEW, Python, Minitab, or similar software.
  • Experience performing engineering calculations related to stress, strain, strength, or mechanical performance.
  • Familiarity with statistical analysis and technical report writing.
  • Exposure to finite element analysis (FEA).
WHY JOIN THE APPLIED MECHANICS LAB?
  • Work on a wide variety of engineering challenges rather than focusing on a single product or specialty.
  • Gain hands-on experience in testing, design, analysis, and problem solving.
  • Learn directly from highly experienced mechanical engineers and technical experts.
