Job Description
About the Role At H3X, we are building the most advanced electric motors in the world for sustainable aviation, marine, industrial, and defense applications. At 12 kW/kg continuous, the HPDM family of integrated motor drives is a step change in electric propulsion technology and removes one of the main barriers blocking widespread proliferation of electric and hybrid aircraft. Our motors range in size from 30 kW to 30 MW and are 3X lighter than competitors' systems. As a Power Electronics Intern at H3X Technologies, you will contribute to the design, testing, and validation of breakthrough power electronic systems for next-generation electric propulsion. You will work alongside experienced engineers, gaining hands-on experience with high-voltage systems and the manufacturing processes that take ideas from concept to production. We are looking to hire a full time intern with a focus on the Fall 2026 Semester for a minimum of 12 weeks, but open to extended periods as well based on candidate availability. Responsibilities Assist in the design, simulation, and testing of power electronic hardware Support the development and validation of PCB assemblies and wire harnesses, collaborating with engineering and manufacturing teams to implement new processes Conduct simulations and performance analyses using industry-standard tools (MATLAB, LTspice, Simulink) to validate system performance and identify optimization opportunities Participate in troubleshooting and root cause analysis for hardware issues, assisting in implementing corrective actions and documenting outcomes Assist with test setup, measurement, and evaluation of prototypes and production units, including high-voltage system operation under lab safety guidelines Contribute to technical documentation, including test reports and manufacturing instructions for PCB and wire harness assemblies
