Co-op - General Engineering Lab and Test Engineering

Landis+Gyr is a leading global provider of integrated energy management solutions. We measure and analyze energy utilization to generate empowering analytics for smart grid and infrastructure management, enabling utilities and consumers to reduce energy consumption. Our innovative and proven portfolio of software, services and intelligent sensor technology is a key driver to decarbonize the grid and helped to avoid around 9 million tons of CO2 in FY 2023. With sales of USD 2.0 billion in FY 2023, Landis+Gyr employs around 6,900 talented people across five continents. 

For more than a century, we've been pioneers in energy innovation, and we continue to lead the way toward a more sustainable and efficient energy landscape. 

Join us at Landis+Gyr, where we manage energy better! 

Welcome to Landis+Gyr!  We're at the forefront of the energy industry revolution - let's build a brighter energy future together!  

The Landis+Gyr Co-op program is designed to enhance the quality and scope of learning by providing students with the option of integrating academic study with related, work-based learning. Applicants must be enrolled in the undergraduate Bachelors degree program and available for an alternating rotating 3-semester schedule; this is not a one-semester internship.  Masters degree students will not be considered.  This rotation is for May-August, 2025, the second semester rotation is January-April 2026, and the third is August-December 2026.  It may be possible to work 2 of the 3 semesters back to back but not all 3 so expected graduation date should be December 2026 or later.  Students will be working on-site at our Lafayette, Indiana location fulltime hours Monday through Friday. This is a paid position but we don't offer housing assistance so only local candidates will be considered.

Project Overview
Root cause investigation into test system anomalies. Data analysis on measurement and test systems to identify source of erroneous results. Work with the team and vendor as needed to develop and implement a corrective action.  Perform frequency analysis of the AFE (Revelo), analyze results, propose any circuit modifications to improve response and performance as it relates to accuracy.
Will learn test systems, measurement, system accuracies, test methodologies, error sources (both HW and SW related).  May experience working with vendors to resolve issues.  Analog design and analysis experience.
Participate on a team of other Co-ops and Interns to develop a new test system for energy meters. Learn about the energy grid and how metering is a critical component to the future of stability and sustainability.
Summary report defining the root cause of the error and a proposed corrective action.  Propose solution to fix the error, either internally or with the vendor.  Implement the fix if possible. Provide report regarding AFE frequency response along with any circuit modification recommendations to improve performance.

Student Objectives/Responsibilities:
•    Create automated tests and data collection utilities
•    Create Universal Test Socket for S-Base electricity meters
•    Work within a multidisciplinary team to design and develop custom test equipment.
•    Testing of hardware for compliance with national standards.
•    Execute testing of energy storage solutions and assist in processing and analyzing data.
•    Willing to become familiar with equipment like oscilloscopes, network analyzers, DMMs, gauss meter, data acquisition devices, soldering irons, environmental chambers, and etc.
•    Participate in engineering development processes such as design reviews or DFMEAs.
•    Evaluate prototype assemblies for integration into new products.

Required Experience 
Co-op applicants must be undergraduate students with a GPA of 3.0 or higher. Majors should be Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or Mechanical Engineering.

All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or status as a protected veteran.
