Job DescriptionOur 2027 Summer Internship is a paid, full-time, 9-week program built around real project ownership. You won't be shadowing or fetching coffee. You'll be assigned a scoped project with a deliverable, paired with a mentor, and given visibility to the leaders who make decisions.

- A defined project with measurable outcomes you present at the end of the summer
- A dedicated mentor plus a manager who owns your development
- Structured onboarding, plant and site tours, and exposure to how power infrastructure actually gets built
- Intern cohort programming - networking, leadership speaker sessions, and a close-out event with the full summer class
- Feedback throughout, and a real conversation about future opportunities at the end

- Learn our products, processes, and customers well enough to contribute an informed point of view
- Present your work to leadership at the end of the summer
- Get honest feedback and coaching on how you work, not just what you produce
