Mechanical Engineer - Internship H/F

Breathe BioMedical (BBM) is a medical technology company focused on developing a simple, accessible and non-invasive breath test for early-stage breast cancer. Breath analytics involves the collection, processing, and analysis of breath samples to identify biomarker patterns associated with specific diseases. One day, detecting disease will be as easy as breathing.
Student interns are a vital part of Breathe BioMedical's development. Engineering interns are recruited to work on specific projects based on their skills and education levels. Projects will allow interns to complete tangible deliverables that both advance the companies development goals and compliment the students' learning objectives.
Fall Internship Details (4/8 Months):
Note: This position requires the intern work in the Moncton Laboratory. Remote work is not possible.
Please indicate in your cover letter the duration of internship you are seeking.
Breathe BioMedical's Technology:
Breathe BioMedical's platform technology has sensitivity to detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the breath down to the parts per trillion. The platform is comprised of three (3) proprietary devices, a Breath Sampler to collect breath, a ‘Spectrometer' to process breath samples and a MLA software that analyzes raw spectral data from the Spectrometer to identify the presence of disease. The Breath Sampler is a portable tabletop device used to collect alveolar air from subjects quickly and efficiently and concentrate VOCs from alveolar air into a thermal desorption tube, which can then be transported to a central lab for analysis. The VOCs in the sorbent tube are mobilized through application of standard heating protocols and injected into the ring down chamber for analysis.
