Job description

Recent college graduates that enter Williams International’s Controls / Software Rotational Engineering Program can expect to spend one year’s time in each of two to three different engineering areas (depending upon previous coursework/experience). The rotation programs are coordinated with each individual engineer and typically include engine control design/test/certification, software design/test/certification, complex electronic hardware (embedded systems) design/test/certification, and engine/component development test support. At the end of the rotations, the engineer is placed into a regular engineering assignment. These assignments are coordinated with the rotation engineer and typically intended to meet both the corporation’s and the individual’s needs.

  • Coursework should be relevant to the fields of computer programming, controls design and/or electrical systems
  • Previous exposure to software development using C, preferred
  • Experience and knowledge of microcontrollers - NXP PowerPC, ARM or TI preferred
  • Track record of finishing assignments without compromising quality
  • Strong troubleshooting mindset - able to systematically diagnose software, hardware integration and test environment issues
  • One to two summer intern or co-op experiences in an engineering environment, preferred
  • U. S. Citizenship is required
  • Position requires the ability to obtain a U. S. Government Security Clearance, if needed. Candidates selected may be subject to a U. S.
