Great Benefits
West Midlands
We are seeking a NVH Specialist with good recent exposure of Brake Systems to support the analysing, identifying, and mitigating noise, vibration, and harshness issues related to automotive brake systems. This role involves addressing both acoustic and structural NVH challenges that impact customer satisfaction, safety, and regulatory compliance.
Key Responsibilities:
1. NVH Analysis: Perform noise, vibration, and harshness analysis using tools such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA), Modal Analysis, and Multi-Body Dynamics (MBD).
2. Design and conduct NVH tests on brake systems, including brake noise, brake pedal feel, and rotor vibration, in both lab and on-road environments.
3. Investigate NVH issues and failures, applying root cause analysis techniques and recommending corrective actions or design changes.
4. Collect and analyse NVH data from physical tests and simulation models using sound and vibration measurement tools like accelerometers, microphones, and modal analysis equipment.
5. Collaborate with brake system designers to suggest improvements that minimize noise and vibrations (e.g., pad material selection, rotor design, calliper configuration).
