Senior CAE NVH Engineer

The Senior Vehicle CAE NVH Engineer will be working with CAE tools to lead and guide the design. The Senior Vehicle CAE NVH Engineer will be responsible for assessing NVH performance of BIW/Trimmed Body and full vehicle using ANSA / Optistruct / Hypermesh or similar tools. This candidate will be using pre-processing tools like ANSA/HYPERMESH to create and debug the full vehicle NVH models. The Senior Vehicle CAE NVH Engineer will suggest recommendations for improving the design. This senior engineer can understand the problem by digging into and analyzing the results and is able to find an optimized solution by performing several simulation iterations. The Senior CAE NVH Engineer is involved in component and vehicle testing too and will correlate the CAE results with the test data. The Senior NVH Engineer is responsible for applying advanced methods like DOE/DFSS to optimize the design. This senior engineer will create reports to present the results of the simulations and the achieved improvements. The senior engineer will communicate with the design team, manufacturing team, and suppliers to achieve the desired vehicle performance.
