We are looking for a Sr. Test Engineer in NVH and Fatigue with a collaborative mindset, a high level of technical competency, and the ability to work on multiple projects simultaneously within a fast-paced environment, while influencing team members through technical guidance and coaching.

Key Responsibilities

• Work collaboratively within a highly dynamic and fast-paced environment while maintaining an agile and solution-oriented mindset.
• Build strong partnerships with new product development teams to align on test strategies, procedures, and execution.
• Consult with cross-functional engineering groups, providing technical insights and recommending design improvements to enhance product performance, reliability, durability, and overall lifecycle.
• Serve as a technical resource for vibration, fatigue, and durability testing-offering troubleshooting, guidance, and scalable solutions.
• Develop, document, and continuously improve test procedures focused on fatigue, durability, and structural stress evaluation.
• Perform advanced analytical methods such as modal analysis, order analysis, and Operational Deflection Shape (ODS) studies to characterize and optimize designs.
• Instrument test articles using a range of sensors-strain gauges, accelerometers, load cells, etc.-and configure data acquisition systems (DAQ) for accurate data collection.
• Conduct field data collection to capture real-world loads, create vibration and fatigue profiles, and translate them into representative laboratory test conditions.
• Record, process, and analyze sound, vibration, strain, and dynamic response data.
• Perform electrodynamic (ED) shaker tests for resonance identification, durability validation, and fatigue evaluation.
• Utilize, maintain, and troubleshoot automated systems for NVH, fatigue, and resonance testing.
• Correlate physical test results with analytical tools such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to strengthen predictive simulation models.
• Reduce complex technical data into clear, concise, and actionable reports for engineering and leadership teams.
