About the program

The ABB R&D Early Career Program is a two-year rotational program designed to develop technical problem-solving skills and leadership through advanced engineering courses and technical projects aligned with business objectives. Participants begin with a July orientation, then complete four 6-month rotations within ABB's Electrification business area, focusing on roles such as continuous improvement, R&D, new product development, and manufacturing support across various locations. The program includes over 150 hours of specialized training, with two accredited classes at top engineering schools. A dedicated program manager guides participants, and the program culminates in a capstone project and presentation.

In this role, you will have the opportunity to support the business, collaborate with different teams, and contribute to the company's strategic objectives. Each day, you will gain knowledge by performing tasks as directed by the program manager / assignment manager.
