QUALIFICATIONS
Technical Systems Integration (TSI) - School to Work
Engine Business Unit (EBU)
Program Overview
This program provides hands-on experience in system-level engineering and early product development within Cummins' Technical Systems Integration (TSI) team.
TSI operates between research and product execution:
Research & Technology explores early concepts
TSI develops and integrates systems (TRL 4-5)
Product teams execute final designs
In this role, you will work on real engineering problems where early decisions shape product performance, cost, and risk.
What You'll Do
During the program, you will:
Support system-level engineering activities , including data analysis, performance evaluation, and component/system interactions
Assist with validation and testing activities , helping interpret results and identify insights
Work across teams (engineering, simulation, test) to support integration and decision-making
Contribute to improving engineering workflows using data, automation, and emerging tools such as Agentic AI
Help translate engineering data into clear recommendations for design or development decisions
What You'll Learn
How early-stage engineering decisions are made before product launch
How different engineering disciplines come together at the system level
How data and tools are used to improve engineering decisions
How emerging technologies like Agentic AI can support engineering analysis and productivity
Basic Qualifications
Strong interest in systems, engines, or product development
Basic understanding of engineering fundamentals (thermodynamics, fluid systems, mechanics, etc.)
Experience with data analysis tools (Excel, MATLAB, Python, or similar)
Preferred Qualifications
Exposure to testing, validation, or engineering projects
Familiarity with structured problem-solving methods
Interest in data-driven engineering or AI-enabled tools
Strong communication and teamwork skills
What Makes This Role Different
This is not a traditional school to work program focused only on execution or testing.
You will gain exposure to:
System-level thinking
Early-stage product decisions
Cross-functional engineering work
The use of Agentic AI and advanced tools to improve how engineering is done
