Caterpillar Inc. is seeking first-year engineering students to join their Corporate Engineering Intern program. The program aims to provide students with hands-on project experience, networking opportunities, and the chance to develop business and technical skills within various engineering disciplines. The goal is to foster future talent and contribute to the development of Caterpillar's products and sustainable communities.
Requirements
- CFD - Computational Fluid Dynamics (ANSYS), FEA - Finite Element Analysis, 3D modelling, root cause investigation; system/subsystem/component design optimization, structural dynamics, development and optimization of Engine, Aftertreatment, Battery, Fuel Cell, Powertrain, and/or Machine System performance.
- Apply strong mechanical engineering understanding in a test/validation (hands-on) environment, troubleshooting issues, and collaborating with others for optimal results.
- Develop/Implement control system algorithms using Matlab/Simulink for various control systems including but not limited to engine controllers, machine implement controllers as well as powertrain controllers.
- Will be responsible for understanding the feature requirement, implementing it as well as testing it prior to a production roll out.
- Will be responsible for designing and testing various electronic control modules as well as various electronic components.
- design of Printed Circuit Board schematics as well as perform digital/analog/power circuit analysis and testing, and ensuring that FMEAs [Failure Mode and Effects Analysis] are conducted and documented to meet stringent Caterpillar quality requirements
- Develop embedded software in C, C-Sharp and/or C++ for various electronic control modules.
Responsibilities
- Engineer components & systems for Caterpillar products to meet our customers’ needs.
- Deliver solutions by leading collaboration with cross functional teams throughout our value chain starting from the initial concept through production.
