Company:

As an Engineering Intern (Lab & Software), I will play a critical role in ensuring our R&D lab operates accurately and efficiently by supporting instrumentation calibration and software/data tools that facilitate our testing processes. My contributions will lead to reliable instruments, cleaner data, and quicker test cycles, allowing our engineers to make informed decisions sooner. I will be collaborating with the R&D Lab Engineering, Test, and Data/IT teams, taking ownership of calibration tasks, sensor setup/troubleshooting, data processing scripts, and version control practices as we strive for a more efficient, data-driven future. At Danfoss, we engineer solutions that enhance machine productivity, reduce emissions, lower energy consumption, and enable electrification, impacting various sectors such as refrigeration, air conditioning, heating, power conversion, and more. With a legacy of innovative engineering dating back to 1933, we are a family-owned company employing over 39,000 people globally, serving customers across more than 100 countries from a network of 95 factories.
