Intern – Digital Twin at Terrapower in Bellevue, WA | USD22-39 | Kablio

Role

Description

model documentation

simulation analysis

data visualization

findings presentation

subsystem simulation

Document modeling assumptions, key parameters, and lessons learned.
Explore how simulation outputs can represent early indicators of equipment health or performance degradation.
Visualize and interpret model results to identify patterns useful for future predictive-maintenance analytics.
Present findings in a capstone presentation to TerraPower’s Digital Products & AI team.
Develop or adapt basic subsystem simulations (e.g., pumps, heat exchangers) to model normal and degraded operating conditions.

Requirements

python

mechanical engineering

digital twin

comsol

analytical

teamwork

Basic programming or data analysis (Python, MATLAB, or similar).
Current undergraduate or graduate student in Mechanical Engineering, Nuclear Engineering, Computer Science, Data Science, or Systems Engineering.
Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
Exposure to predictive-maintenance methods and how digital twins support lifecycle reactor management.
Hands-on experience building and analyzing simulation-based digital-twin models.
Coursework or project experience in:
Simulation or system modeling (e.g., COMSOL, ANSYS, MATLAB/Simulink, OpenFOAM, or Python).
Work Conditions: Stairs, typing/keyboard, standard and/or sitting working environment of >8 hrs./day
Motor Abilities: Sitting and/or standing for extended periods, bending/stooping, grasping/gripping, fine motor control (hands)
Physical exertion and/or requirements: Minimal, with ability to safely lift up to 25 pounds
Insight into how simulation and modeling accelerate design, reduce risk, and prepare for future operational readiness.
Familiarity with reliability engineering or degradation modeling is a plus
Travel required: 0-5%
The successful candidate will possess a high degree of trust and integrity, communicate openly and display respect and a desire to foster teamwork.
Special Senses: Visual and audio focused work
