About the Job

Requirements

Knowledge of aerodynamics and acoustics.
Exposure to aeroacoustics, noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH), or vehicle aerodynamics through internships, projects, or research; design experience is a plus.
Interest in experimental testing, such as wind tunnel or track testing; hands-on test experience is a plus.
Familiarity with computational fluid dynamics (CFD), including setup and execution of aeroacoustics simulations.
Ability to work toward dynamic goals with limited supervision.
A degree in Aerodynamics, Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience through internships, research, or personal projects.
Experience working in high-performance computing (HPC) environments.
Experience scripting in Python, MATLAB, or Bash.
Familiarity with surface design in computer-aided design (CAD), preferably in CATIA.

Responsibilities

Define and execute experimental aeroacoustics test programs.
Build aeroacoustics computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations to understand and visualize key noise sources.
Work alongside the noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) team to predict interior noise contributions.
Analyze and document test and simulation results, and present findings.
Correlate test and simulation data to continuously improve understanding and prediction capabilities.
Develop novel concepts in computer-aided design (CAD) to improve noise sources.
Work alongside designers and engineers to implement these concepts.
Provide feedback to the Programs team on aeroacoustics attributes and development status.

About the Company

Tesla

Makes electric cars, robotaxis and grid batteries

Tesla makes electric cars and batteries that store power for homes and utilities, and it develops self-driving software and humanoid robots. In 2023, its Model Y became the first electric vehicle to rank as the world's best-selling car. Buyers order the Model 3 sedan, Model Y SUV, or Cybertruck pickup directly from Tesla instead of through dealers, and they charge on its Supercharger fast-charging network. It also sells Megapack and Powerwall batteries, runs a robotaxi service, and charges drivers a monthly fee for self-driving software that still needs their supervision. Tesla was founded in 2003, with Elon Musk as its lead early investor and a recognized co-founder, and it is based in Austin, Texas.
