About The Position

By combining a rich legacy in the power and gas compression space with pioneering technology, INNIO brings our customers affordable, reliable, and sustainable energy solutions for today—and tomorrow. We are helping to meet today’s energy needs with 64 GW of installed capacity and 48,000 of our powerful Jenbacher and Waukesha engines, which can be found in more than 100 countries. And, by harnessing our history of energy industry firsts along with the power of digital innovation, we will continue to deliver for the future. It’s time to take engines to a place no one else can. Welcome to a World of Innovation and Inspiration. Welcome to INNIO! About the role: To strengthen our Technology and Product Development capabilities within the Mechanical Simulation Team, we are seeking an experienced Noise Vibration Harshness (NVH) Engineer. In this role, you will develop, maintain, and analyze high-fidelity multibody and torsional vibration models of our engines across various applications and installations. You will collaborate closely with Design, Mechanical Development, Validation, and Research engineers, applying a simulation-driven design approach to enhance the robustness of our products.

Requirements

Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field; a Bachelor's with extensive experience will be considered.
3+ years of experience with multibody dynamics simulation in the engines, automotive or heavy machinery industry.
At least 3 years of experience in CAE/FEA simulation and optimization using ANSYS or Abaqus
Proficiency with a major MBD software package, such as AVL Excite, MSC Adams or Simpack.
Solid theoretical foundation in kinematics, dynamics, vibration, and mechanics.
Experience with test data analysis and model-to-test correlation.
Excellent problem-solving skills and a strong attention to detail.
Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the US without the need for employer sponsorship, now or in the future.
