Propulsion NVH Technologist with strong hands-on experience in
vehicle, exhaust, driveline, and powertrain NVH testing.
This is a senior, hands-on testing role for someone who can independently instrument vehicles and powertrains, operate NVH measurement systems, troubleshoot prototype systems, and work closely with engineers in a fast-paced development environment.
What You'll Do- Instrument, set up, and perform Noise, Vibration & Harshness (NVH) testing on vehicles, powertrains, systems, and components.
- Perform exhaust, driveline, full-vehicle on-road, and fired test chamber measurements.
- Install and verify accelerometers, microphones, encoders, thermocouples, pressure sensors, and other NVH instrumentation.
- Operate LMS NVH data acquisition systems and confirm test data is valid for engineering analysis.
- Perform engine, transmission, driveline, and component changes as required for testing.
- Conduct testing on-road, at proving grounds, and on laboratory test stands.
- Operate diagnostic and control tools including ATI, ETAS/INCA, ADAC, CANalyzer, PTDiag, or similar systems.
- Troubleshoot prototype vehicles, powertrain systems, instrumentation, and test equipment.
- Interpret schematics, wiring diagrams, coolant-flow diagrams, engineering prints, and test procedures.
- Maintain accurate test documentation and support department quality requirements.
- Communicate test status, issues, and results clearly with engineers, requestors, and management.
Required Experience- High School Diploma or equivalent.
- 2-10 years of automotive testing operations experience.
- 2-5+ years of direct NVH development/testing experience.
- Strong knowledge of NVH principles including FFT, order analysis, modal analysis, filtering, windowing, leakage, data acquisition, and analysis.
- Expert-level automotive mechanical and troubleshooting knowledge.
- Hands-on experience with NVH sensors, instrumentation, and measurement transducers.
- Ability to work with multiple technical software systems simultaneously.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Ability to obtain a Tier 2 driving certification.
Highly Preferred- Associate degree in Engineering, Automotive Technology, or related field.
- Experience with TiVCT, GTDI, HEV, FHEV, PHEV, and Diesel systems.
- Experience with EEPE, charge accelerometers, thermocouples, pressure transducers, and related instrumentation.
- Strong prototype vehicle troubleshooting experience.
- Demonstrated ability to work independently while supporting engineering teams.
Important Screening NoteRelevant NVH testing experience is required. Candidates whose experience does not demonstrate a strong match with
NVH testing, data acquisition, instrumentation, automotive testing, and troubleshooting may not move forward in the selection process.
