Engineer in Training

This is a 30-week rotational program where you will spend time in six different Vogt Power engineering functions, gaining hands-on experience and in-depth technical training in each department. Mentors provide 1:1 support throughout the program, which also includes up to 4 weeks of field experience. Upon successful completion, you will transition into an engineering role based on your preference and company needs. Start dates are flexible to accommodate your academic calendar.
