Electrical Integration Engineering Intern

What we're building

Every idea starts with a problem. Ours was simple : Boats are special - but they're loud, pollutant, unreliable, and stuck in the past. Gas-powered boats dominate not because they're great, but because no better option has existed. Until now.

Arc is here to change that. We're building 100% electric boats from the ground up - quicker, quieter, easier to maintain, and better for the water they ride on. We're not just swapping gas for batteries. We're rethinking every detail on the boat - from propulsion and powertrain to software and ownership model - applying first-principles engineering from aerospace and EVs to deliver a better boating experience.

Electric boats haven't taken over yet. The tech hasn't been ready. The talent hasn't been focused here. That's our opportunity - and we're moving fast.

Who we're looking for

We're looking for someone who's fired up by our mission and ready to build. You'll thrive here if you adapt quickly, take ownership, and care about the details.

You will join our Electrical Integration Engineering team as a summer intern from June 15th-August 21st 2026. This role will report to the Manager, Electrical Integration Engineering and work from our headquarters in Torrance, CA. Given that we're a startup, you will be working in a fast-moving, dynamic environment that requires adaptability. That said, here are some responsibilities and qualifications we expect to stay relatively constant for this role

Core responsibilities

• Supporting design and implementation of electrically integrated systems like wire harnesses, PDMs, and HV ESS systems
• Building prototypes of new designs to support vehicle tests, standalone tests, and HIL tests
• Collaborating with other Engineering teams and interns to develop new solutions or improve existing ones
• Maintaining Electrical R&D space for efficient and effective operations

Basic qualifications

Bonus qualifications

At Arc, we encourage diversity and consider all qualified applicants equally for employment, regardless of background, identity, or status. You're always welcome to reach out even if you don't meet many of these qualifications. Passion and aptitude make up for a lot.

Our values

We move with urgency and build with care. We value these five things above all else :

We want people who share and embody these values. It is vital that our values align - we'd be happy to elaborate on any or all of these during the interview process.

What we offer

We don't think great work happens by accident. We invest in the people building Arc - because when you're supported, you do your best work.

Hope to hear from you soon!
