• Hands-on experience with CAE tools such as ANSA, Nastran, Actran, and HyperView.
• Experience with acoustic simulation, model validation, and test correlation.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.

Responsibilities

• Develop system-level and component-level acoustic simulation models.
• Perform meshing, boundary condition setup, and simulation execution.
• Conduct Sound Pressure Level (SPL) predictions for horns, alerts, speakers, and related components.
• Perform frequency response, modal analysis, and near-field/far-field acoustic evaluations.
• Conduct Transfer Path Analysis (TPA), sensitivity studies, and root cause analysis.
• Correlate CAE simulation results with physical test data and recommend design improvements.
• Use pre-processing and solver tools to perform acoustic simulations and analysis.
• Perform post-processing, document methodologies, and prepare technical reports.
• Develop automation scripts using Python or MATLAB.
