Requirements

ITT is looking for individuals who thrive in a fast‑paced, high‑energy start‑up setting to launch new sustainable products. Flow machines such as pumps, fans, and compressors consume about 35 % of global electricity, and VIDAR’s new variable‑speed motors can cut that energy use by up to 50 %.

The ideal candidate takes a technically focused approach, works well under pressure, and is in the third or fourth year of an electrical‑engineering degree. Strong quantitative, problem‑solving, communication, and presentation skills are essential, along with a collaborative mindset and a willingness to learn from feedback.

• Program VIDAR motors and write C code or other languages as needed.
• Must be in third or fourth year of an electrical engineering degree.
• Proficient with Microsoft Office, especially Excel.
• Demonstrate quantitative and problem‑solving skills.
• Exhibit strong communication and presentation abilities.

Benefits

You will join a talented, diverse engineering team for a six‑month internship starting in spring 2026. The environment is curious, entrepreneurial, and innovative, encouraging the exchange of ideas and experiences. Your supervisor will act as a partner and coach for both personal and professional growth, and you will be trusted to deliver outstanding results.
