About the role
Intelligent Wellhead Systems (IWS) is seeking an Electrical Design Intern for a 16-month internship from May 2026 until August 2027. Interns can expect to see their projects from initial design, through prototyping, and testing, and on to full production in a single work term. IWS prides itself on giving full product design responsibility to its interns, thereby allowing them to have a powerful learning experience while on their work term. This position is very similar to a junior engineering position.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities
- Work with the manufacturing teams, contract manufacturers and peers on creating drawings and design packages for oil field equipment.
- Use AutoCAD to design and prepare Electrical drawings for contract manufacturers.
- Write and modify assembly procedures and bill-of-materials tables for outsourced manufacturing.
- Ensure the accuracy and precision of dimensions, parts and specifications in the drawings.
- Work with Panel and Cable assembly shops and part vendors to establish pricing and build prototypes of designs.
- Translate concepts, sketches, and rough drafts from engineers or designers into precise technical drawings that meet industry standards and specifications.
- Provide support to engineers from the Research & Development Hardware team and field technicians.
- Work closely with electrical engineers to understand the design requirements and assist in refining concepts and technical drawings. Modify and update existing drawings based on feedback or design changes from engineers or clients.
Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- Excellent attention to detail
- Excellent interpersonal interaction skills
- Strong experience with AutoCAD is required
- Strong electrical design skills (Electrical components sizing, Cable sizing and length calculations, electrical distribution, control systems, applicable Industry standards etc.) are an asset
- Strong commitment to quality
- Uploading samples of technical documents and AutoCAD files to demonstrate skills is beneficial
Education
- Currently enrolled in 3rd year curriculum in Electrical and Computer or Electronics Engineering
Pre-employment Conditions
