In this role, you will gain hands-on experience with CAD modeling, Finite Element Analysis (FEA), engineering drawings, and tolerance analysis while supporting senior engineers through the new product development lifecycle. You will work in a fast-paced, growing business unit building next-generation data center infrastructure. You will work cross-functionally with global engineering, product management, and manufacturing teams, playing a key role in driving innovation, interoperability, and system-level performance in a fast-paced New Product Development (NPD) environment. Why This Role is Exciting - Direct exposure to next-generation data center and AI infrastructure solutions - Hands-on experience in a lab environment — building, testing, and validating real hardware - Work alongside experienced engineers across electrical, mechanical, thermal, and controls disciplines - Meaningful project ownership — not just observation - Opportunity to learn mechanical design standards, compliance, and system-level thinking at Vertiv ### Key Responsibilities - Design Support & CAD - Create and update 3D models and 2D drawings using CAD tools (Creo, SolidWorks, or equivalent) - Assist with mechanical design reviews and provide feedback on component and system designs - Support Bill of Material (BOM) creation and maintenance - Develop manufacturing-ready documentation with proper GD&T callouts - Analysis & Validation - Perform Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for structural and thermal validation of components and assemblies - Conduct tolerance analysis and stack-up studies to ensure fit and function across system interfaces - Support prototype builds and validation testing in the engineering lab - Document analysis results and test findings with clear, thorough reporting - Cross-Functional Collaboration - Work alongside senior mechanical, electrical, and thermal engineers on integrated system designs - Participate in cross-functional design reviews and team meetings - Support manufacturing and production teams during factory integration activities - Collaborate with sourcing and supplier teams on component specifications - Learning & Development - Gain exposure to industry compliance standards and design-for-manufacturing principles - Learn system-level mechanical architecture for rack- and row-based infrastructure - Develop problem-solving skills through real-world engineering challenges - Present project results and findings at internship showcase events ### Qualifications Required - Currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering (BSME) or related field - Completed at least sophomore year of coursework - Foundational understanding of statics, dynamics, materials, and thermodynamics - Experience with 3D CAD software (Creo, SolidWorks, or equivalent) - Strong problem-solving and analytical skills - Ability to work hands-on in a lab environment - Effective communication skills — written and verbal - Self-motivated with the ability to take initiative and ask questions Preferred - Coursework or project experience in FEA, GD&T, or tolerance analysis - Familiarity with sheet metal design and manufacturing processes - Exposure to thermal management or structural design - Experience with simulation tools (ANSYS, Creo Simulate, or similar) - Previous co-op, internship, or project experience in a hardware engineering environment ### What We’re Looking For - A curious, hands-on learner eager to work in a multidisciplinary engineering environment - Someone who takes ownership of their work and delivers results - A team player who communicates clearly and collaborates well with experienced engineers - A self-starter who isn't afraid to ask questions and dig into complex problems #LI-RB1 ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Aug 12, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 10, 2026 - Last checked: Oct 18, 2026 -
