Reviews

Electrical Engineering Intern

May 2024 - August 2024 Miamisburg, OH
“I liked the relevance of my existing knowledge and skills in the work that I was given. Knowledge of schematics and circuitry was definitely essential to success in my internship, and I was really challenged during my time here. I also gained lots of essential skills such as soldering and some programming in languages that I had never programmed in before. Everyone is extremely friendly and kind, and open to share their experiences and knowledge of the company and of its products. They also make sure to acknowledge the hard work that everyone contributes.”

Manufacturing Engineering Intern

January 2024 - August 2024 Miamisburg, OH
“The company provided numerous opportunities to apply engineering problem solving skills to solve problems. For some of these opportunities, the responsible engineer had an idea of what they wanted to do and just needed it designed, but many others were open where I could look for and create my own solution. There was a supportive and collaborative environment that encouraged me to seek out help and feedback on the projects I was working on, while also allowing me to own my projects. Safety and quality were valued as the most important aspect in the workplace, which made me confident to ask about concerns that I had.”
