Mechanical Engineering Internship - Specialized Design

E.K. Fox & Associates, Ltd.

INSPIRED.COMMITTED.CONNECTED.

These are the qualities of our work—and of the people who do it. If these qualities are part of your life, too, you’ll want to explore a career at EKFox.

As part of our creative, can-do team, you’ll have the chance to realize your full potential through a wide range of challenging engineering assignments. You can take pride in helping us to design for future generations, working to enrich America’s security—at home and abroad—and spearheading exciting new directions in sustainability and energy efficiency.

EKFox is an experienced team of talented, motivated individuals who share a passion for solving problems and improving the built environment. We continue to strengthen our commitment to provide a work environment and culture that stimulates creativity, values integrity and encourages professional growth.

The Engineering Intern will join a team solving more complex and specialized infrastructure requirements of a select group of confidential clientele which includes work of national interest. In the course of supporting our clients, we continue to grow, offering significant opportunities for development and advancement. Contributing to the success of several mission critical markets, EKFox allows creative mangers, intuitive engineers and technical experts to grow in a fast paced, team based, broad spectrum, hands on environment.

Our team works in close coordination with our clients to identify and resolve technical and operational challenges from inception, identification and definition to fabrication, integration, testing, implementation and continuing support for the life of the system. One day may be designing and troubleshooting satellite based command and control systems for OCONUS facilities and the next may be hands on testing of a specific COTS power system to determine its feasibility for a specific application.

Offering proven expertise to our clients in the form of strategic consulting, engineering design, systems integration, testing and commissioning, construction, operations and maintenance, training, research and development and forensic analysis, we know and do what it takes to ensure the mission succeeds and enjoy great satisfaction from knowing the difference our work makes.

We are looking for a Mechanical Engineering Intern to join our team during the summer of 2027:

If you believe you are exceptional, there is a natural attraction to EKFox because:

  • You are one of the most productive people you know.
  • You think holistically about the engineering problem at hand and like to apply “what-if” scenarios.
  • You understand and embrace the real meaning of being a team player.
  • You are committed to getting a job done right the first time.
  • Problem-solving comes second-nature to you.
  • You seek to understand then to be understood.

Once on board, get ready to:

  • Experience a thorough orientation to all aspects of the company.
  • Gain an opportunity to do what you do best everyday.
  • Be exposed to some of the most challenging engineering design efforts, locally and globally.
  • Utilize some of the latest technology in the industry.
  • Have a life outside the office.

To be successful at EKFox:

  • Successfully enrolled in a Bachelor’s of Science Engineering program.
  • Be open-minded yet tough-minded.
  • Look for opportunities to further our clients’ satisfaction and make them raving fans of our work.
  • Assist in the research, design and evaluate electrical and mechanical products, equipment, systems and processes.
  • Provide design and integration support to the mission critical systems and applications.
