Groupe SEGULA Technologies SA; Wichita (KS); On-site; USD 85,000 - 125,000; Full time

Job summary

Bombardier in Wichita, KS seeks a Cabin Acoustics Engineer to support programs with advanced simulation models and Lab validations, ensuring acoustic comfort during production and service. Collaboration with engineering and production teams will drive integration of new developments while maintaining Bombardier’s high standards of cabin comfort.

Responsibilities include creating FE/SEA/ray tracing models, advancing simulation methods, organizing BA Lab test campaigns, and planning flight and

Responsibilities

• Create simulation models (FE, SEA, ray tracing) to assess and optimize cabin acoustic design choices.
• Develop simulation methods and tools to push the limits of models for aircraft cabin acoustics development.
• Set-up and participate in test campaigns in BA Lab to validate design concepts and technologies.
• Plan and participate in flight and ground tests to quantify cabin acoustic comfort or characterize the vibratory environment.

Job description

• Collaborate with the Engineering Expert responsible for the numerical simulation and Lab measurements to support all programs activities requiring advanced simulation models and/or tests in Lab validations.
• Support your colleagues responsible for cabin acoustics on the Challenger and Global programs to resolve engineering-related cabin acoustics and vibration issues during production, delivery, or in service, ensuring Bombardier’s high standards of acoustic and vibratory comfort are maintained.
• Collaborate with extended working groups (engineering, production) to support the integration of new developments (connectivity, interior, features, comfort, etc.) into these aircraft while ensuring cabin acoustic comfort meets Bombardier’s high standards.
• Work with colleagues to propose, assess, and develop the tools and technologies that will be integrated into Bombardier’s future aircraft.

To achieve these objectives, you will be required to:

• Create simulation models (FE, SEA, ray tracing) to assess and optimize design choices leading to preserve or enhance cabin acoustic comfort,
• Develop simulation methods and tools to always push limits of models to answer needs of aircraft cabin acoustics development,
• Set-up and participate in test campaigns in BA Lab to validate design concepts and technologies,
• Plan and participate in flight and ground tests to quantify cabin acoustic comfort or characterize the vibratory environment in specific areas of the aircraft.
• Analyze test data, write technical reports, and communicate your conclusions and recommendations.
