About the Role
Are you an engineering student looking to turn your studies into real-world experience?
We’re looking for an Intern Asset Inspection Engineer to join our Inspection Solutions team for a 3-month summer internship. You’ll work alongside experienced Asset Inspection Engineers and specialist drone pilots, gaining hands-on exposure to how technology and engineering data are used to assess the condition of electricity network assets.

You’ll get involved in a variety of inspection activities, including:
  • Reviewing and processing aerial inspection imagery
  • Supporting drone, acoustic and thermal inspection activities
  • Analysing inspection data and helping prepare reports and presentations
  • Working with digital inspection and data platforms
  • Supporting field-based inspections and data collection
  • Assisting with technology trials and wider inspection programmes
  • Working alongside engineers and drone pilots to solve problems and deliver projects

This is a great opportunity to build practical engineering experience, see how electricity networks operate, and work with emerging inspection technologies in both field and office environments.

Safety is at the heart of everything we do, so you’ll also play your part in maintaining high health, safety, quality and environmental standards.

About You
We’re looking for someone curious, proactive and keen to learn. You’ll enjoy working with technology and data, while also being comfortable getting out into the field when required.

Ideally, you’ll have:
  • Completed at least 2 years of university study towards an Engineering degree, preferably Electrical, Electronics or Mechatronics Engineering
  • Be in your penultimate or final year of study
  • A current driver licence
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Good attention to detail, particularly when working with imagery and data
  • Confidence using digital tools and general computer applications
  • The ability to work well both independently and as part of a team
  • A positive attitude and willingness to learn and take on different tasks
  • Flexibility to travel within New Zealand when required

What's in it for you?
You'll be joining a business where your work has a real impact on communities across Aotearoa. In return, you'll enjoy:

  • Competitive pay, plus flexible leave and boosted KiwiSaver options
  • Life insurance, discounted medical cover and wellbeing support
  • Fuel and retail discounts
  • Ongoing learning, development and career progression opportunities
  • A supportive, inclusive and family-friendly culture where safety comes first
