Mechanical Engineer - Intern

TAI • Owings Mills, MD • 2h ago

About the Role:

Join TAI's Mechanical Engineering division for a hands-on summer internship where you won't just be watching from the sidelines; you'll be an active contributor to complex design projects for laboratories, data centers, and mission-critical facilities. Working directly alongside experienced mentors, you will bridge the gap between classroom theory and real-world application by performing thermal load calculations, specifying high-grade equipment, and transforming field survey data into precise CAD and Revit construction documents. This is a high-impact opportunity to immerse yourself in the full lifecycle of mechanical systems, from initial technical studies to the final details of HVAC and plumbing design.

About TAI:

TAI is a full-service, multi-disciplinary engineering and construction firm built to scale; delivering mission-critical, integrated solutions across the full design-build-maintain lifecycle. For more than 35 years, TAI has partnered with leading organizations in advanced manufacturing, life sciences, food and beverage, energy, and government to design, build, and sustain complex facilities and infrastructure. TAI brings deep expertise across five core service pillars: Engineering, Construction, Systems Integration, On-Site Services, and Technical Services. Our unified approach combines precision engineering, field execution, and technical depth to deliver end-to-end results that drive reliability, safety, and long-term value for our clients.

Team members at TAI are capable, well-rounded, flexible, and optimistic. We have found that the best employees are the ones who recognize the importance of what they do and the ones who let that guide them in the actions they take. More than any skill, we seek people who make decisions that support the common good. We work for our clients, and we work for one another.

Here's a glimpse into your day to day:

Researching applicable industry standards.

Assisting with preparing engineering studies, analysis of systems, preliminary and detailed engineering designs.

Interpreting and applying applicable codes.

Editing of mechanical construction drawings, including general arrangements, flow diagrams, ductwork piping, and plumbing drawings.

Specifying equipment such as air devices, terminal units, expansion tanks, water heaters and plumbing fixtures.

Performing cooling and heating load calculations

Assist in conducting detailed field surveys of buildings, structures, equipment, piping and supports and documenting the existing conditions in CAD

You'll be a perfect fit if you have:

Current college student entering their Junior or Senior year, and pursuing degree in Mechanical Engineering

Experience with AutoCAD or Revit is strongly preferred.

Experience utilizing a load calculation software such as Carrier HAP or Trane Trace

Proficient with Microsoft Office applications - Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Project

Good verbal and written communication skills, good customer relation skills, a positive work attitude, and willingness to learn new skills.

Self-motivated and able to produce high quality results within time and budget constraints.

Able to work in the office and field, as this is a hands-on internship.

Compensation and Benefits:

Pay: $20/Hour

Other Offerings:

The opportunity to make a real impact on a variety of industry-leading projects.

The ability to balance your work and family activities.

Flexible work schedule

Work in a dynamic and collaborative environment that values creativity and innovation.

A chance to learn and grow alongside some of the brightest minds in engineering.

Professional Development, Tuition Reimbursement, and Association Membership Reimbursements.
