Electric Power Systems, Inc. (EPS) is an innovative technology company developing Energy Storage Systems for Aerospace and Transportation applications. Our mission is to power upward mobility by providing smarter, safer, more reliable, lighter, and certifiable batteries. As a Mechanical Engineering Intern - ESS at EPS, you will gain hands-on experience working on cutting-edge battery technology that enables the future of mobility.

Responsibilities

In this role, you will be involved in designing battery modules and packs by developing packaging solutions for battery cells, Battery Management Systems (BMS), and other essential components. You will implement cooling solutions to enhance battery performance while optimizing packaging to minimize volume, weight, and cost. Your designs will need to meet rigorous structural testing standards for shock, vibration, and impact while also considering manufacturability using methods such as CNC machining, injection molding, sheet metal fabrication, and casting.

Additionally, you will work on vehicle mechanical integration by designing methods for integrating electric driveline components into existing vehicle architectures. This includes analyzing power transmission systems and integrating clutches, torque converters, and flywheels, as well as evaluating and designing hardware solutions for vehicle electrification.

As part of the team, you will also assist in mechanical and electrical testing of modules, packs, and vehicle components. You will have the opportunity to design and build test fixtures to efficiently conduct performance evaluations, helping to validate and improve the performance and reliability of EPS products.

Qualifications

Candidates must be currently pursuing a Bachelor's (junior or senior) or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field. Proficiency in CAD modeling using SolidWorks, including engineering print generation, is required, along with a strong understanding of Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T) per ASME Y14.5. You should also have a solid understanding of heat transfer and thermal analysis in mechanical systems, as well as familiarity with various manufacturing methods such as CNC machining, injection molding, sheet metal fabrication, and casting. A foundational knowledge of electrical systems and architecture is also essential. Candidates must be able to work in a fast-paced, collaborative environment and manage multiple projects.

Due to ITAR regulations, applicants must be a U.S. Person, which includes U.S. Citizens, U.S. Nationals, lawful permanent residents (Green Card holders), or individuals who have been granted asylee or refugee status in the United States.
