Acoustical Mechanical Engineer – Noise Control & NVH Design

Remotely
Full-time

We are a multidisciplinary engineering consultancy celebrated for turning disruptive ideas into market-ready products. Our culture prizes curiosity, evidence-based design, and transparent communication. You will join a cohort of mechanical, electrical, and civil specialists—each committed to delivering quieter, safer, and more sustainable technology.


Key Responsibilities  

- Perform acoustic and vibration root-cause analyses for rotating equipment, HVAC units, drivetrains, and industrial machinery.  

- Build predictive models in VA One (or comparable FEA/BEM suites) to forecast SPL, vibration spectra, and aeroacoustic flow.  

- Design custom silencers, resonators, baffles, and composite barriers that meet OSHA and ISO noise directives.  

- Conduct experimental testing in hemi- and full anechoic chambers, verifying simulation outputs within 3 dB accuracy.  

- Generate concise technical reports—translating spectrograms and octave-band data into actionable design guidance.  

- Collaborate with cross-disciplinary teams (structural, thermal, fluid) through Agile sprints to integrate noise mitigation early in product lifecycles.  

- Advise architects on mechanical-room layout, duct isolation, and acoustic glazing to achieve LEED sound credits.  

- Mentor junior engineers on microphone array techniques, order tracking, and psychoacoustic metrics.  


Required Qualifications  

- Bachelor’s or Master’s in Mechanical Engineering, Acoustics, or closely related discipline.  

- 5+ years hands-on NVH or noise-control engineering in automotive, aerospace, or consumer products.  

- Proficiency with VA One, LMS Test.Lab, MATLAB, and acoustic cameras.  

- Solid grasp of vibration analysis, aeroacoustics, and materials science for sound absorption.  

- Demonstrated ability to write engineering documents for executive and non-technical audiences.  

- U.S. work authorization; ability to collaborate effectively across remote teams and time zones.  


Preferred Extras  

- PE licensure in Mechanical or Acoustical Engineering.  

- Experience with CFD-coupled aeroacoustic solvers (Fluent, OpenFOAM).  

- Familiarity with ANSI S12 standards and FAA/Ford noise regulations.  

- Background in additive manufacturing of resonant components.
