Kop-Flex offers excellent opportunities for advancement, currently 7 of 13 engineers are former co-ops.
Co-ops will work closely with Product Engineers & mentors in the design of mechanical couplings. They will apply engineering knowledge to perform stress analysis, calculate coupling mass elastic data, produce coupling drawings, develop new and innovative products, and manage engineering projects. Project management may provide opportunities to interact with VP’s, managers, and customers. They will have the opportunity to interact with global employees and customers.
Preferably co-ops have an understanding of mechanical design, stress analysis, materials, and vibration analysis. Individuals should posses and demonstrate proficiency with Microsoft Office and CAD software (AutoCAD is preferred).
