ITM connects with future engineers at UC Career FairĀ
Mixed among the buzz of voices inside the massive six-court gymnasium at the University of Cincinnati Technical Career Fair this week, ITM connected with a ton of impressive engineering students.Ā
Potential full-time employees and co-op students heard for the first time about our engineering firm in Milford, Ohio. It is always a joy to watch their eyes light up as we share the projects our team has the opportunity to deploy across the country and around the world.Ā
The aerospace students hear that we work on rockets. The mechanical engineering students learn of the rugged measurements we collect on massive machinery. And the computer programmers discover that weāve spun up our own software products.Ā
The reaction is almost always the same: āWow! I had no idea.āĀ Ā
For our team, the day is equally as fulfilling as we connect with the next generation of engineers eager to get to work and apply their knowledge.Ā
Our firm is interested in filling full-time roles for students graduating with a degree in mechanical engineering, mechanical engineering technology, electrical engineering, electrical engineering technology and aerospace engineering.Ā

Rockets, road trips and paper millsĀ

Why an ITM team trekked across Alabama several times in the same weekĀ
Our team should be intimately familiar with the three-hour stretch of I-65 between Prattville and Decatur, Alabama. They drove it four times in about as many days during a recent work trip.Ā Ā
The team had been on a troubleshooting assignment to a rocket-building NASA partner that needed help with what appeared to be failing sensors. They had no idea that what seemed like a fairly straightforward trip would soon become far more interesting and logistically challenging. One phone call later though, and they were dispatched 166 miles south to a paper mill client.Ā
Upon arrival, they began commissioning new Acosense technology on the plantās process lines. Integrated Test & Measurement is an exclusive U.S. installer of the Swedish technology that can constantly monitor and analyze liquids inside a pipe with non-invasive clamp-on sensors.Ā
The small crew proved themselves both flexible and adaptable by pulling double duty as they served both clients for the better part of a week. Rocket work one day. Back in the car. Paper mill the next. Back in the car. And so on until both jobs were complete. The week could serve as a microcosm of the variety of work ITM engineers balance regularly.Ā
āThat was a challenging week for this crew for sure,ā said ITM President Tim Carlier. āBut it was all interesting technology and gave the team a chance to troubleshoot newer equipment. So it was a good learning challenge for us and an example of our dedication to meet the needs of our clients.āĀ
ITM engineers and technicians experience a wide variety of projects and travel opportunities. For some, the real joy is working with their hands on site, while others prefer the more technical activities such as computer assisted design or relying on their social skills during customer interactions.Ā
Ultimately, we do what it takes to deliver ā even when that means burning up the roads in Alabama to get the job done.

ITM Co-op Helps Engineering Student Set Sights Even HigherĀ

ITM Co-op Helps Engineering Student Set Sights Even HigherĀ
Tyler Houseās dream career began to come into sharper focus during his spring co-op at Integrated Test & Measurement.
After four months at the Milford, Ohio, firm the University of Cincinnati electrical engineering student headed into his summer feeling both excited by his work experience and inspired to emulate ITM CEO Tim Carlier one day by starting his own company.
āI know I want to do something I love,ā said Tyler, who had just returned from a trip to Disney with his girlfriend to celebrate the end of the semester. āIād like to start my own company someday. Iāve been poking at that idea. Definitely a big dream of mine is having that freedom and doing something that means a lot to me.ā
Perhaps the only thing that equals Tylerās love of engineering is his love of music. He and a few fellow graduates from Clermont Northeastern (CNE) high school started a band called Wishbone, which has started lining up local gigs to cover rock and blues tunes stretching back a half century.
Tylerās two worlds collided on the last day of his co-op when a couple of engineers from ITM dropped into his bandās āfirst bonafide show.ā
āIt was so much fun watching their reaction,ā said Tyler, who employs his electrical engineering skills to repair the bandās gear when things inevitably break. āI love that they came.ā
Coincidentally, like Wishbone, ITMās entire leadership team ā the CEO, VP of Operations, Lead Programmer and Administrative Director ā are all CNE graduates. For Tyler, seeing that level of success from the same small high school as him was only more of a confidence lift.
He loves the entrepreneurial and inventive culture at ITM, where staff members are constantly tackling new challenges. āItās really just a great place to figure out what you are into,ā he said.
Tyler found himself learning a ton about Fusion 360, a cloud-based 3D modeling program, while researching mechanical properties and simulating failure modes on a bolted joint. He said he spent about half his co-op in the office doing things like assembling Data Acquisition (DAQ) boxes and the other half on the road working on-site. Experiences included everything from climbing inside massive paper mills to helping gather data on equipment operating in remote locations all over the country.
āIn talking with my friends who have had co-ops, itās hard to get to work in a place where you feel like you can make a difference and actually help fix problems,ā said Tyler. āI definitely felt that. I learned really fast about how to deal with mistakes and just general problem solving.ā
Besides the on-the-job learning, he loved exploring new places, national parks and more with the ITM crew after hours. Heās hoping to pick up some work helping ITM with any projects through the summer, and heās interested in returning during his next co-op rotation in Spring of 2023.
Meanwhile, heāll keep poking at his dream of someday owning his own company.
āYou just have to go out there and get it,ā Tyler said. āIf you are aggressive about it, you will fail a bunch. But youāve got to be able to get up off the ground and just keep rolling with it.ā
