Job Description: Engineering Internship (Summer 2025)
Location: Multiple locations including Valley Green, PA; Nashua, NH; Hamden, CT; and Hampton, NH.
Wage: Depends on experience.
Summary: Amphenol is seeking multiple interns for Summer 2025 to support various engineering groups, including Field Applications Engineering, Development Engineering, Process Engineering, Product Development Engineering, and Signal Integrity Engineering.
Responsibilities: Interns will gain experience in several areas, depending on the assigned group. Examples include:
• Mechanical Engineering related tasks:
• Engineering build/manual assembly of prototypes.
• 3D modeling and engineering drawings using CAD software (Pro-E or Solidworks experience preferred).
• Finite Element Analysis (FEA) (experience desirable).
• Mechanical and electrical lab testing support.
• Documentation of test results and presentations.
• Component/assembly quality inspection.
• Collaboration with other engineering disciplines in the design and manufacturing process.
• Electrical Engineering related tasks:
• Design, simulation, characterization, and application of high-speed electrical connectors, backplane systems, and cable-based interconnects.
• Circuit and PCB layout, understanding of electromagnetic (EM) issues, and signal integrity in PCB layout.
• Testing of high-speed interconnect products using VNA or TDR equipment and other general lab functions.
• Assisting customers in solving high-speed data transmission problems.
• Collaborating with internal Sales Engineers on product strategies.
• Experience with signal integrity and simulation/analysis tools (Ansys HFSS and Designer, CST Microwave, HSPICE, MatLab, and ADS are a plus but not required).
• Frequency-domain and time-domain component and circuit characterization, including understanding of test and calibration methods.
Qualifications:
Candidates should be at least sophomores in Mechanical, Electrical, or Plastics Engineering programs. Specific experience requirements vary depending on the engineering discipline:
