This internship is for Summer 2026. We are seeking a detail-oriented Data Analyst Intern to support our NFRC (National Fenestration Rating Council) thermal simulation and certification processes. In this role, you will work closely with our engineering and product development teams to analyze thermal performance data for windows and doors, validate simulation results, and ensure compliance with industry standards. This internship provides hands-on experience at the intersection of data analytics, building performance, and sustainable product development.

  • Assist in running, processing, and interpreting NFRC thermal simulation results (U-factor, SHGC, VT, condensation resistance).
  • Collect, organize, and analyze simulation data using Excel, Python, or other data analysis tools.
  • Collaborate with engineers to validate results and identify trends or discrepancies.
  • Support documentation required for NFRC certification submissions.
  • Develop reports, dashboards, and visualizations to clearly communicate simulation outcomes to internal teams.
  • Conduct benchmarking studies against competitor or industry performance data.
  • Provide insights that support R&D, product design, and energy efficiency initiatives.
  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Data Analytics, Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, Building Science, or a related field.
  • Strong analytical and quantitative skills with attention to detail.
  • Experience with data analysis and visualization tools (Excel, Python, R, MATLAB, or similar).
  • Familiarity with building performance concepts such as thermal transmittance, solar heat gain, and energy efficiency.
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to present technical findings clearly.
  • Exposure to fenestration thermal simulation software (e.g., THERM, WINDOW, or equivalent) preferred.
  • Knowledge of NFRC standards, ENERGY STAR, or ASHRAE guidelines preferred.
  • Experience with statistical analysis, regression modeling, or performance benchmarking preferred.
  • Understanding of sustainability and green building certifications (e.g., LEED, Passive House) preferred.
  • Competitive pay
  • Inclusive, collaborative environment
  • Bragging rights - you'll work for the market leader in multiple product categories
  • Professional development opportunities
  • Intern buddy
