About the role
About the role
- This internship will involve supporting the design and validation of our commercial
- product. The intern will contribute to the design of a regenerative drying and purification
- system to enable efficient and continuous production of high-purity hydrogen. Working
- closely with an R&D engineer, the intern will characterize thermal/separation processes,
- develop control systems, and optimize operating parameters to satisfy key reliability and
- cost constraints. As the directly responsible individual overseeing an experimental test
- station, the intern will develop a data analysis framework to provide key insights into
- long-term physicochemical phenomena. The role may involve working with vendors to
- design and develop custom components.
