Engineer, Electromechanical Intern

Position Summary:

This position is for anelectromechanical engineeringinternforsummerinternship project.Thissummer internproject focuses on the end-to-end design and prototyping of a hardware-based fault injection system for Electric Vehicle (EV) DC Fast Chargers. The scope includes defining a strategic framework to stress-test critical components-including the charge controller and high-power contactors-and developing a custom, enclosure to house the control interface. By simulating subsystem failures and extreme thermal conditions, this system provides a controlled, repeatable environment for the engineering team tovalidate'fail-safe' software responses and build a robust diagnostic database of system error codes

PositionResponsibilities:

• Gain knowledge of EV chargercomponents and functions

• Identifypoints in the system to fault

• Design,develop, and document (using 3D CAD software)hardware design for thefault injection system

• Fabricate and assemble prototypeof the system

• Benchtest to verify the system works before integrating it with the charger

• Integrate the system with theEVcharger

• Perform fault testsand collect data on the outcomes

• Documentto a fault-to-error mapping database

Qualification Requirements:

• Hands-on basics: Experience using hand and powertools, andprototyping electrical-mechanical assemblies.

• Mechanical Design: Strong spatial intuition forcomponentlayout within enclosures;proficiencyin SolidWorks is preferred

• Analytical Testing: Ability todevelop ""what-if"" test cases and logicallyidentifycritical system failure points

• Technical Documentation: Skilled inmaintainingprecise test logs that correlate specific fault actions with their corresponding system outputs.

Essential Functions:

• Customer-centric mindset.

• Technology leadership mindset.

• Ability to work both individually and in a team.

• Ability to work with limited direction toattainproject goals according to set timelines.
