Position Summary

We are seeking a highly motivated and self-driven NVH CAE Engineer to join our CAE Body Performance Development team. The ideal candidate will possess strong technical problemsolving capabilities leadership qualities and handson experience in NVH model building & simulations using primarily in NASTRAN ANSA/META (Optistrut Hypermesh / Hyperview) and related tools. This role involves supporting clients on vehicle NVH load cases analyzing results preparing detailed engineering reports and recommending design countermeasures to meet or exceed NVH targets.

Key Responsibilities

Technical & Simulation Responsibilities:

• Handle fullvehicle and subsystem NVH load cases using Nastran (SOL101 SOL103 SOL108 SOL111 & SOL200) Opti Strut
• Perform model assembly and integration for:
  • BIW Trim BIW Full vehicle
  • BodyPowertrain coupling Structurefluid coupling
• Build and evaluate FE models ensuring:
  • Highquality meshing
  • Correct material properties
  • Accurate connections (rigids bushings welds etc.)
• Generate acoustic cavity models with correct measurement point positioning.
• Evaluate and integrate subsystem models from simple to highly complex assemblies.

NVH Analysis Execution:

• Modal Analysis & Modal Alignment
• Frequency Response Functions & Direct Response Analysis
• Dynamic Stiffness & Road Noise
• Vibration Transfer Function & Noise Transfer Function
• Powertrain Noise (WOT & IDLE)
• Road-Load Conditions & Interior Acoustic Response

PostProcessing & Interpretation

• Identify BIW/TBIW global modes
• Interpret FRFs transfer functions and dynamic responses
• Evaluate Sound Pressure Levels (Pa dB dB(A))
• Conduct Transfer Path Analysis (TPA) to identify dominant noise contributors

Project Execution & Client Interaction

• Independently lead NVH simulation projects and deliver highquality results
• Prepare detailed technical reports and present findings to clients
• Provide structural design countermeasures to achieve NVH performance targets
• Communicate with clients on daily simulation activities deliverables and decisionmaking support
• Mentor junior team members and contribute to competency development
• Ensure adherence to customer expectations regarding quality timelines and technical guidelines

Required Qualifications

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Mechanical Automotive Aerospace Engineering or related field
• Minimum 2-5 years of vehicle-level NVH analysis experience.
• Strong understanding of Structural Mechanics Finite Element Methods material modelling connections/contacts and linear/nonlinear behaviour
• Handson experience with:
  • Pre-processing: ANSA (preferred) / HyperMesh
  • Post-processing: META (preferred) / HyperView
• Ability to interpret simulation results including stress-strain deformation energy acceleration and acoustic metrics.
• Analytical mindset with strong organizational and problemsolving skills
• Advanced or fluent English communication skills

Preferred Skills (Good to Have)

• Experience in Statistical Energy Analysis (Mid & High Frequency Analysis)
• Experience in other tools like AVL GT Suit will be preferred
• CAEphysical test correlation experience
• Programming/scripting skills: Python TCL.
• Familiarity with HPC environments (clusters cloud-based simulation platforms)
• Experience with other solvers: Abaqus LS-Dyna PAMCrash

Qualifications :

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Mechanical Automotive Aerospace Engineering or related field
