Intern, Electrical Engineer

L3HHCM20•Northampton, MA

8d•$26 - $48•Onsite

About The Position

In this role, you will learn to design, develop, integrate, test, and sustain electronics for maritime applications at the L3Harris Northampton, Massachusetts site. The internship will teach you to how to take designs from concept through released hardware, system-level integration, production support, and fielded-product sustainment. In this onsite role you will learn hands-on Circuit Card Assembly design with cross-functional execution in a production environment.

Requirements

Pursuing a Bachelor’s degree, a Master’s degree or a PhD in Electrical Engineering, Electrical Engineering Technology, Computer Science degree or related technical degree at an accredited university.
