Test Engineering Co-op- Spring 2027
Atmus Filtration Technologies provides engineering experiences for students across a wide range of engineering disciplines and STEM aligned degree programs. Co-op roles are typically project based and the student will gain a broad range of experiences and will grow as both a person and a professional.
- Start Date: Spring 2027 (Jan.) or Summer 2027 (May/June)
- Location: Stoughton, WI
- Length of Role: 8 month minimum, 9-12 months, highly preferred.
- Education: BS or MS in: Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Computer Science/Electrical Engineering
To be successful in this role you will need experience in or willingness to learn the following:
- Strong decision-making, communication, collaboration, problem-solving, and project management skills, with a commitment to continuous self-development and driving results.
- Experience or knowledge in laboratory equipment safety, measurement science, data quality, product functional testing, and test system design.
- Methodical and data-driven approach to troubleshooting and issue resolution.
- Ability to follow HSE (Health, Safety & Environment) and Technical Function Standards/Practices.
Degree Programs Considered: Bachelor's or Master's
Major Programs Typically Considered: Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Computer Science/Electrical Engineering
Co-Op program criteria:
- Must be a currently enrolled student pursuing an undergraduate or graduate degree.
- Minimum 2.5 or above GPA preferred.
- Must be able to complete a minimum of 8 months, 9-12 months, highly preferred.
- Must be able to complete 40 hours per week. Five (5) days a week.
- Willingness to learn from others on the job.
The Student Engineering Co-op will gain knowledge and support experienced engineering staff in one or more of the following areas:
- Product Design / Development / Validation - New Product Development, Current Product Support or Validation/Verification planning for filtration & separation systems.
- Test Engineering - Development of new laboratory equipment, procedures, and test methods.
- Reliability - Product Development Risk Assessment & Failure Analysis
Scope:
- Design, specify, implement, validate, and support laboratory test systems, including mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, data acquisition, and control systems, to enable reliable engineering evaluation and product development.
Key Responsibilities:
- Problem Solving & Resolution: Investigate and resolve test system and process problems; identify root causes, recommend corrective actions, and document results.
- Process & Tool Application: Apply and improve engineering processes and tools, including test system specifications, design, validation, FMEA, 7-step problem solving, and process hazard analysis.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work with lab customers, technicians, engineers, and suppliers to define test system requirements, processes, and instructions while making informed decisions on component selection, calibration, accuracy, reliability, and operating costs.
- Technical Ownership & Growth: Independently manage moderately complex technical work, contribute to team goals, and continuously expand technical and product knowledge.
