About the Job

Requirements

  • A bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Acoustics, Physics, or a related field is required; a master's or PhD is preferred.
  • An NVH Technical Specialist generally requires 8 or more years of relevant experience; a Senior NVH Engineer generally requires 5 or more years.
  • Experience in acoustic package development and optimization, including sound transmission loss and sound absorption coefficient.
  • Proficiency in Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA) for high-frequency airborne noise simulation using ESI VA One and/or MSC Actran.
  • Strong fundamental understanding of digital signal processing, psychoacoustics, and use of sound quality metrics to record, track, and report NVH performance.

Responsibilities

  • Deliver the full-vehicle acoustic package to achieve high NVH performance while balancing mass, packaging, and cost.
  • Lead development and execution of SEA models for full-vehicle and subsystem acoustic simulations, including body-in-white, closures, powertrain, and ancillaries.
  • Develop and validate acoustic treatment solutions, including heavy layers and absorbers, through simulation and testing.
  • Interpret SEA simulation results to guide design decisions and optimize vehicle acoustic performance.
  • Work with vehicle integration, body, powertrain, and thermal teams to incorporate acoustic considerations into system-level designs.
  • Support target setting and cascading for vehicle-level sound package performance.
  • Correlate SEA models with physical test data and contribute to model validation.
  • Perform vehicle- and component-level testing and assessments to improve airborne noise performance in prototypes and production vehicles.

Desired Qualifications

  • Previous experience taking a vehicle from concept to production.
  • Experience in NVH characterization and fault detection using microphones, accelerometers, acoustic cameras, particle velocity probes, or similar instruments.
  • Experience with Siemens TestLab and/or Artemis Suite.
  • Past experience with wind noise and/or HVAC noise development.
