Get On the Inside Track

Our mentor-based internship program provides participants with a broad understanding of the HVAC industry, while also considering the value they bring to our organization. Interns can expect to support various Western Allied projects, and receive opportunities to learn about areas of specific interest to them.

Each summer, we carefully select interns to ensure that each one has a positive and meaningful experience. These relationships are mutually beneficial, as interns often become full-time employees.

If you have an interest in our industry and are motivated, smart and good-natured, we encourage you to apply for the program.

I was an intern at Western Allied for three summers getting to work in different departments each summer. I started in the pipe shop; then I was in the engineering department; I spent my 3rd summer as a PM intern with the special projects team. Since joining WAM, I have had the chance to help interview and work closely with interns working in project management each summer. Now I am a Sr. Project Manager who works with many of our past interns (now full time project engineers) on a daily basis and enjoy helping them grow their careers here at Western Allied.

Mechanical Design/Project Engineer Internship

Western Allied Mechanical is looking for motivated Mechanical Engineering Interns who are interested in gaining hands-on experience in the design and construction of HVAC and plumbing systems. Interns will work alongside experienced engineers, project managers, and construction professionals while learning how mechanical projects move from initial concept through design, coordination, construction, and final system operation.

Depending on individual interests, interns may support either our Engineering team or Project Engineering team. Responsibilities may include assisting with HVAC and plumbing design, preparing construction documents, supporting estimating and scheduling activities, coordinating project information, reviewing drawings, and helping track project progress.
Interns may also have the opportunity to work with BIM and other design technologies, visit active construction sites, and collaborate with architects, clients, vendors, fabricators, installers, programmers, and field teams. This exposure provides a practical understanding of how engineering decisions are carried through into construction and how mechanical systems are installed, tested, and operated.

This internship is designed to provide an introduction to the design-build construction process while helping students strengthen their technical, communication, organization, and problem-solving skills. Interns will work closely with mentors and team members, receive guidance throughout their experience, and gain valuable insight into potential career paths in mechanical engineering, construction, and project management.

No previous design-build experience is required. We are looking for students who are eager to learn, ask questions, take initiative, and contribute as part of a collaborative project team.
