About The Position

Smith Engineering Hyperloop (formerly Queen's Hyperloop Design Team) is an internationally acclaimed student team that seeks to innovate the future of green transportation. Each year, we push ourselves and the boundaries of global transformation. We seek a path of continuous growth and are constantly searching for new talents to build our team. If you are curious, learning-driven, and looking to make real change in the world, SHDT is the place for you. Our team consists of 4 unique branches: Technical Branch – Work on designing and building our Hyperloop pod prototype. Research and Development Branch – Develop and publish Hyperloop technologies beyond just the Hyperloop pod. Business and Logistics Branch – Strategically grow and manage the team’s assets. Tunneling and Boring Branch – Design and build a miniature tunnel-boring machine (TBM) for Hyperloop infrastructure development. Each branch consists of multiple subteams which focus on specific aspects of the branch. At SHDT, we believe that anybody can be a part of any branch. Our learning-first culture enables members to develop the skills necessary to succeed in any branch regardless of their academic background. If you have curiosity and passion for any area of Hyperloop, we have the resources to help you develop them! The Chassis manager is responsible for leading a team to build the chassis and aeroshell for the pod. They will work off previous pod designs to improve the efficacy of the chassis and aeroshell by optimizing the chassis structure and aeroshell design/layup process, as well as budgeting and ordering the necessary materials. They will communicate with Systems Design and the other technical sub-teams to inform the final design.
