Product Development Engineering Co-op – Front-End I/O Connectors for AI/ML

Location: Markham Department: High-Speed IO Core Development

Position Overview

Amphenol is seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Engineering Co-op student to support the design and development of front-end I/O connectors used in next-generation Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) platforms.

This role provides hands-on exposure to high-speed connectivity solutions, including electrical, mechanical, and thermal design considerations. The Co-op will work closely with experienced engineers and contribute to real product development programs supporting advanced compute architectures.

Key Responsibilities Design & Engineering Support

• Assist in the design and development of high-performance front-end I/O connectors for AI/ML applications.
• Support CAD modeling and drawing creation using tools such as SolidWorks or Creo.
• Contribute to design activities focused on signal integrity, mechanical reliability, and thermal performance.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (electrical, mechanical, manufacturing) to support product integration.

Testing & Validation

• Support the execution of electrical, mechanical, and environmental testing of connector designs.
• Help collect, organize, and analyze test data to identify performance trends and issues.
• Assist in preparing test reports and documenting validation results.
• Participate in lab activities and prototype evaluations.

Project & Documentation Support

• Assist engineers in tracking project timelines, deliverables, and design iterations.
• Maintain organized engineering documentation, including drawings, test results, and reports.
• Support continuous improvement efforts in development workflows and documentation practices.

Customer & Application Exposure

• Gain exposure to customer requirements and application use cases in AI/ML hardware systems.
• Support preparation of materials for design reviews, prototypes, and technical discussions.
• Assist in translating customer needs into engineering inputs under guidance.

Qualifications

• Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics or a related field.
• Completed at least the 2nd or 3rd year of study (preferred).
• Basic understanding of electrical fundamentals and mechanical design principles.
• Familiarity with CAD tools (SolidWorks, Creo, or similar) is an asset.
• Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills.

Preferred Skills

• Exposure to high-speed signaling concepts or electronics hardware.
• Familiarity with simulation tools (e.g., ANSYS, HFSS).
• Interest in data center hardware, AI/ML infrastructure, or high-performance computing.
• Experience with hands-on lab work, prototyping, or testing.

What You’ll Gain

• Direct experience in cutting-edge connector development for AI/ML systems.
• Exposure to real-world engineering workflows from concept to validation.
• Mentorship from experienced engineers in high-speed interconnect design.
• Opportunity to contribute to next-generation computing platforms.

The base pay range for this position is $20-$30 per hour. In determining the rate of pay, Amphenol considers a variety of nondiscriminatory factors, including but not limited to geographic location, relevant industry experience, qualifications, skills, and education.
