Description
Work Arrangement: This role is categorized as hybrid. This means the successful candidate is expected to report to the office three times per week or other frequency dictated by the business.
The Role
We are currently seeking experienced and motivated candidates for the role of Propulsion Dynamics & NVH Analysis Engineer to support the Global Battery & Propulsion Engineering division. In this role you will be responsible for creating 3D FEA and/or 1D Amesim mechanical modeling analysis to support ICE, PHEV & BEV propulsion systems. 3D FEA and/or 1D Amesim models are used to drive designs and eliminate hardware testing. Simulations are focused on various propulsion components such as electric drive units, power electronics, engine and transmissions.
What You'll Do

  • Build, debug, and run analytical models, interpreting results for customers, attending development team meetings and interact with various engineers across the organization.
  • Collaborate with vehicle noise & vibration (N&V) group to deliver propulsion system load cases and/or Amesim plant models.
  • Advance analysis capability to decrease the need for testing and align with company goals for increased virtualization.
  • Develop and continuously improve standard work and update procedure documents.
  • Support teams in all phases of program execution from concept to production including optimizing CAE models for customer usage
  • Support capability development projects as it pertains to propulsion N&V
  • Actively pursue cost reductions, size reductions and efficiency improvements
  • Provide technical leadership, engineering guidance, and mentoring to engineers to enable accurate and efficient execution of virtual propulsion program work.
