About this role
EQT's Compression Engineer Intern program offers a structured 12-week summer experience for engineering students seeking exposure to midstream pipeline and facilities operations. You'll work directly with compression services teams in the Pittsburgh area, splitting time between the Canonsburg office and field sites. The role centers on hands-on support—assisting with facility operations, collecting and documenting technical data, reviewing drawings, attending job site visits, and helping maintain asset records. You'll also shadow different roles across engineering, construction, and operations to understand how these functions integrate in real infrastructure projects.
The internship suits students pursuing an engineering degree or related technical field who are genuinely interested in the energy sector and infrastructure development. You'll need strong organizational and communication skills, proficiency in Microsoft Office, and a valid driver's license for local travel. While formal experience isn't required, a basic grasp of engineering or construction principles is helpful. The program emphasizes learning safety protocols and compliance standards alongside technical work, with opportunities to support small projects and present findings under supervision.
EQT frames this as part of its broader intern culture, emphasizing collaboration with leadership, visibility into how your work drives business decisions, and cross-functional development opportunities. The role is designed to give you genuine insight into how midstream operations function rather than routine administrative work alone.
