Brake CAE Engineer: Lead NVH & Durability Analysis

Socket.dev; Plymouth (MI); On-site; USD 110,000 - 150,000; Full time

Job summary

Mobis North America is seeking a Lead Brake CAE Engineer to lead virtual analysis and simulations for brake systems within the local CAE team. You will plan technique development and drive design decisions from concepts to production readiness, coordinating with PDT, design engineers, and testing groups.

The role requires 4+ years in CAE, experience with Abaqus/HyperWorks/ANSYS Motion, and a strong background in structural and NVH analyses for automotive brakes.

Qualifications

• 4+ years of CAE experience with common software (Abaqus, HyperWorks, ANSYS Motion, Python).
• Experience with structural and NVH analysis in automotive braking contexts.
• Familiarity with North American OEMs and UK/NA collaboration is a plus.

Responsibilities

• Coordinate & Run Simulations: Create performance, durability, & NVH simulations for brake components and assemblies using tools like Abaqus, Nastran, or ANSYS; or coordinate the required analyses within internal partner teams to meet local project demand.
• Analyze Results: Interpret analysis data to evaluate performance, durability, & NVH characteristics, then provide clear project recommendations.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with customer PDT, application & design engineers, NVH development engineers, and physical testing groups to validate virtual models and predict performance, durability, & NVH characteristics of braking systems.
• Lead, Plan, & Strategize: Lead & coordinate localization effort to improve local CAE analysis software capability; work with customer to plan & execute analysis technique improvement and expand application of CAE analysis in project engineering work.
• Report and Document: Write clear engineering reports & presentations and track simulation progress against project milestones.
