Honestly, I've found the best way to build camaraderie is getting drunk with your teammates, but YMMV on that way. Pretty much every team I've ever worked in, until we go out and have dinner and drinks, it's all-business, all the time.
Some folks are kind and open up about their lives, very inclusive, but they won't be the ones who make you feel the way you do.
You're an engineer. Half of the people in this industry have social issues or aren't exactly extroverted. They've met people like you before, and they'll know it just takes a bit longer.
Finally, it's okay. People are different. Give it a few more months, make a concerted effort to be more sociable (and maybe bring it up with your manager, they should organise something - if they don't, get out of there). If it doesn't work, find something else. You're hot shit right now.
