Test Engineering Co-op- Spring 2027

Atmus Filtration Technologies provides engineering experiences for students across a wide range of engineering disciplines and STEM aligned degree programs.   Co-op roles are typically project based and the student will gain a broad range of experiences and will grow as both a person and a professional. 

• Start Date: Spring 2027 (Jan.) or Summer 2027 (May/June)
• Location: Stoughton, WI
• Length of Role:  8 month minimum, 9-12 months, highly preferred. 
• Education: BS or MS in: Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Computer Science/Electrical Engineering

The Student Engineering Co-op will gain knowledge and support experienced engineering staff in one or more of the following areas:

• Product Design / Development / Validation - New Product Development, Current Product Support or Validation/Verification planning for filtration & separation systems.
• Test Engineering – Development of new laboratory equipment, procedures, and test methods.
• Reliability -   Product Development Risk Assessment & Failure Analysis

Scope:

• Design, specify, implement, validate, and support laboratory test systems, including mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, data acquisition, and control systems, to enable reliable engineering evaluation and product development.  

Key Responsibilities:

• Problem Solving & Resolution: Investigate and resolve test system and process problems; identify root causes, recommend corrective actions, and document results.
• Process & Tool Application: Apply and improve engineering processes and tools, including test system specifications, design, validation, FMEA, 7-step problem solving, and process hazard analysis.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work with lab customers, technicians, engineers, and suppliers to define test system requirements, processes, and instructions while making informed decisions on component selection, calibration, accuracy, reliability, and operating costs.
• Technical Ownership & Growth: Independently manage moderately complex technical work, contribute to team goals, and continuously expand technical and product knowledge.

To be successful in this role you will need experience in or willingness to learn the following:
