Workshop Engineer Assistant, Research and Design Coordinator

WindAid Institute, an American and Peruvian-based non-profit and educational institution, has been at the forefront of small-scale wind energy development and design since 2006. Through our international community of interns and volunteers, we have constructed 40+ wind turbines in remote Peruvian communities where there is limited or no access to grid electricity. We engineer solutions to this problem by harnessing wind energy to provide a clean and reliable source of electricity.

WindAid is offering a Workshop Engineer Assistant, Research and Design Coordinator Internship for 6 months in Peru.

 Facilitate communication (Spanish/English) between Workshop Director and Engineering interns/volunteers
 Guide volunteers in the wind turbine building and installation processes
 Ensure safety protocols are being met in the workshop
