Mechanical Engineering Intern

• Create and maintain 3D CAD models, assemblies, detailed drawings, and engineering documentation.
• Design GNSS product enclosures, antenna housings, seals, gaskets, mounting systems, and test fixtures.
• Support PCB integration and packaging while considering antenna performance, EMI, and EMC requirements.
• Create manufacturing drawings including GD&T and tolerance analysis.
• Build, assemble, and evaluate prototypes for fit, function, reliability, and manufacturability.
• Develop and execute design verification (DVT) test specifications plans and procedures.
• Support environmental testing including Sine Sweep, Random Vibration, HALT, thermal cycling, ingress protection, and leak testing.
• Analyze test results, troubleshoot failures, and participate in root-cause investigations.
• Participate in Design FMEA (DFMEA) activities to improve product robustness and reliability.
• Work with suppliers and manufacturing teams on materials, processes, tooling, and product quality.
• Contribute to design reviews and continuous improvement initiatives for mechanical design and testing processes.

• Registered in an Engineering Internship/Co-op program (Mechanical, Mechatronics, Manufacturing, or related discipline) and completed at least 2nd or 3rd year of studies by the start of the work term.
• Strong academic credentials.
• Experience with 3D CAD software such as SolidWorks, Creo, NX, Inventor, or similar.
• Strong communication skills (oral and written).
• Available for a 12-month, full-time (37.5 h/week) internship in Calgary, AB.

Nice-to-Have:

• Interest in mechanical product design, electronics packaging, or precision positioning technologies.
• Familiarity with GD&T, engineering drawings, and tolerance analysis.
• Experience with enclosure design, sealing methods, and leak prevention techniques.
• Familiarity with environmental qualification testing including vibration, shock, HALT, thermal cycling, and ingress protection testing.
• Understanding of DFMEA, root-cause analysis, and reliability engineering concepts.
• Experience integrating PCBs and electronic assemblies into mechanical designs.
• Awareness of EMI/EMC requirements and how mechanical design impacts GNSS antenna performance.
• Experience with rapid prototyping, machining, or 3D printing.

Key Success Factors:

• Strong attention to detail and a "first-time right" mindset.
• Comfortable working independently and within a collaborative team.
• Motivated by challenging technical work with a focus on quality and precision.
• Able to follow complex instructions while knowing when to ask for help.
