Responsibilities
What you'll be able to do:
As an NVH CAE Engineer, you will perform NVH CAE analysis of next-generation Model e products, in one or more of the following areas: Body, Interiors, Closures, Seats, and Frames. You will coordinate with D&R engineers to drive design resolutions using linear CAE analysis. You will develop component, system, and vehicle-level CAE models, as well as complete analysis following Ford CAE modeling/analysis guidelines. You will direct other analysts to create CAE models and run analysis. You will conduct DOE studies, while utilizing optimization tools to meet performance requirements within the constraints of conflicting attributes, such as cost and mass. You will develop CAE-based countermeasures to meet requirements and work with program members to develop design proposals that meet cost and weight targets. You will participate in CAE/design reviews to present and communicate findings with other team members. You will maintain records of all CAE models and document as needed.
Qualifications
You'll have…
A Bachelor’s degree or foreign equivalent in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field and 4 years of experience in the job offered or a related occupation. 3 years of experience with each of the following skills is required:
