Original job description
About EETS
Eco Eolic Top System Inc. (EETS) is a Mississauga-based cleantech startup developing patented aerodynamic retrofit components for heavy-duty trucks, trailers and cargo containers. Our products reduce drag, fuel use and GHG emissions across freight fleets.
The opportunity
16-week paid internship · $19.70/hour · 35 hours/week
Start: January 2027 · Apply by December 1, 2026
Work model
Primarily remote; you can live anywhere in Ontario or Quebec. On-site activities (prototyping, supplier visits, pilot installations) take place in the Greater Toronto Area, and you must be able to attend in person when required. Any travel for company work outside the GTA is covered by EETS.
What you’ll do
- Build and update 3D CAD models and technical drawings of aerodynamic components
- Run and interpret CFD simulations to evaluate airflow and drag
- Help design and build prototypes in plastics, thermoplastics and composites
- Coordinate with suppliers and manufacturing shops
- Support occasional on-site pilot installations on trucks and trailers, collect field data and troubleshoot
- Write clear reports on installations, test results and design improvements
What you’ll gain
Hands-on experience taking a product from CAD and CFD to real trucks on the road, with direct mentorship from our Engineering Director. You’ll receive training in CFD, prototyping, safe fieldwork and performance analysis.
What we’re looking for
- Canadian citizen or permanent resident
- Current student in a mechanical, aerospace, automotive or related engineering degree or technical diploma at a recognized Canadian post-secondary institution, enrolled for the full internship
- Proficiency in SolidWorks, Fusion 360, CATIA or similar
- Working knowledge of CFD; STAR-CCM+ is an asset
- Familiarity with manufacturing processes, thermoplastics and composites
- Clear technical writing in English; French or Spanish is an asset
- Able to travel to the GTA for occasional on-site work
Nice to have
Design team experience (Formula SAE, Baja, aero/rocketry), startup or low-volume manufacturing experience, or knowledge of SmartWay or CARB.
Eligibility
This internship is funded through ECO Canada’s Student Work Placement Program, which requires applicants to be Canadian citizens or permanent residents currently enrolled at a recognized Canadian post-secondary institution.
How to apply
Apply through LinkedIn, or send your resume, a short cover note and, if you have one, a portfolio (CAD or CFD work, design team projects) to mauricio.vargas@ecoeolictopsystem.com with the subject line “EETS Aero Intern – [Your Name]”.
