FEA NVH Engineering Analyst

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Brazil.

📋 Description

• Assemble various vehicle subsystems, ranging from basic systems to body and suspension systems.

• Assess mesh quality and the consistency of properties and connections, including rigid elements, bushings, and weld points.

• Create acoustic cavities while adhering to measurement points.

• Integrate subsystems and construct BIW, TBIW, and Full Vehicle models.

• Execute structure–fluid coupling.

• Integrate the Body and Powertrain.

• Conduct Modal FRF, dynamic stiffness, acoustic response, powertrain noise, road noise, and direct response analyses.

• Utilize Nastran, including SOL101, SOL103, SOL108, and SOL111.

• Identify global modes in BIW and TBIW models.

• Interpret FRFs and transfer functions.

• Assess sound pressure levels in Pa, dB, and dB(A).

• Analyze results under various conditions, particularly focusing on powertrain noise scenarios such as WOT and IDLE.

• Identify transfer paths (TPA).

• Suggest structural enhancements to minimize vibration and noise.

• Conduct CAE-to-test correlation.

• Prepare and deliver reports.

• Investigate the root cause of peaks.

⛳️ Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Automotive, Aerospace, or a related field).

• Minimum of 3 years of CAE experience, emphasizing vehicle safety.

• Profound understanding of the Finite Element Method (FEM), material modeling, contacts, and nonlinearity.

• Experience with pre-processing tools such as ANSA (preferred) or HyperMesh.

• Proficiency in post-processing tools such as META (preferred) or HyperView.

• Background in safety simulations, including Crash, Pedestrian Protection, Occupant Protection, Rollover, Pendulum, and related analyses.

• Capability to interpret results, including energy, acceleration, and deformation.

• Analytical and organized approach with a strong focus on problem-solving.

• Advanced or fluent English skills.

• Experience with other solvers (e.g., Abaqus or Nastran) is advantageous.

• Familiarity with CAE-to-physical-test correlation is beneficial.

• Programming/scripting abilities (Python, TCL) are a plus.

• Knowledge of HPC environments (cluster or cloud) is a plus.

• Proficiency in Spanish is an advantage.

🏝️ Benefits

• Work arrangement (on-site, hybrid, or remote) to be determined.

• Commitment to equality, diversity, and inclusion.

• An inclusive environment where everyone has a place.
