Work directly with Reliability Engineers on active mining operations
Build hands-on experience with Caterpillar heavy equipment
Apply classroom knowledge to real-world engineering challenges
Develop your skills in data analysis, diagnostics, and performance optimization
Gain exposure to industry-leading tools, systems, and technical training

⚙️Planning and Assembly of 7495 Mining Shovel (90%)
Assemble drawing/job packages for trades (Mechanics, Welders and Electricians)
Perform site safety inspections
Monitor project consumables and aid in ordering
Create daily progress reports
Perform Quality Assurance/Quality Control checks and documentation
Update drawing and picture libraries
Assist in production study of assembled machine
Assist in commissioning of assembled machine
Compile documents for turn over to client
🤝 Customer & Team Collaboration (5%)
Support continuous improvement (CI) projects with technical data
Collaborate with engineers, technical teams, and site stakeholders
Gain exposure to customer-facing engineering support
🚀 Process Improvement (5%)
Help identify improvement opportunities using data insights
Support product and equipment improvement initiatives with Caterpillar
What You Bring:
Currently enrolled in a Mechanical or Electrical or Mining Engineering degree
Returning to studies after your work term
Interest in heavy equipment, mining operations, or reliability engineering
Basic understanding of mechanical systems (engines, hydraulics, powertrain)
Strong analytical mindset and willingness to learn
Familiarity with MS Office (Excel is a plus)
Why This Role Stands Out:
✅ Hands-on site experience in one of Canada’s largest mining regions
✅ Work with world-class Caterpillar equipment
✅ Paid travel + camp accommodations provided
✅ 7/7 rotation for structured work-life balance
✅ Build highly transferable skills in data, diagnostics, and reliability engineering
✅ Strong foundation for a future career in mining, heavy equipment, or engineering consulting
If you’re looking to turn your classroom knowledge into real impact, gain valuable field experience, and work on massive, complex equipment, this is the internship for you.
