Detailed JD: 

-Vehicle Evaluation & Root Cause Analysis  

• Conduct on-road and proving ground brake refinement evaluations across multiple European locations (Up to 3 weeks at a time).  

• Provide detailed technical feedback to support root cause identification of refinement issues.  

• Collaborate with design, CAE, and test teams to develop andvalidate countermeasures.  

-Brake NVH & Refinement  

• Investigate and resolve brake NVH issues including squeal, judder, and creep groan.  

• Operate NVH-specific measurement tools (e.g., HEAD Acoustics,Polytech laservibrometer, Link brake dynamometers and vehicle, LMSTest Lab).  

• Perform objective and subjective assessments to correlate customerperception with engineering data.  

-CAE & Simulation  

• Conduct and support finite element analysis (FEA) for brake system components and assemblies using 3Dx, Altair, Abaqus.  

• Support correlation of CAE predictions with physical test results.  

• Apply simulation tooptimize brake system design for refinement performance.  

-Data Acquisition & Processing  

• Acquire and process test data using Artemis, Link, LMSTest Lab.  

• Analyze NVH and thermal performance data toidentify trends and anomalies.  

• Prepare technical reports and recommendations for design changes.  

-Problem Solving & Quality Tools  

• Apply structured problem-solving methodologies (8D, Root Cause Analysis, FMEA) to resolve brake refinement issues.  

• Document findings and corrective actions in line with quality management processes. 

• Proven experience in automotive brake system refinement and NVH engineering.  

• Hands-on experience with vehicle testing and instrumentation for brake NVH.  

• Proficiency in NVH measurement systems (HEAD Acoustics, LMS,Polytech) and brake dynamometer testing.  

• Strong CAE skills in FEA (3Dx, Altair, Abaqus) for brake system analysis.  

• Competence in data acquisition and signal processing tools (Artemis, Link, LMS).  

• Knowledge of brake system design, materials, and thermalbehavior.  

• Experience in structured problem-solving (8D, RCA) and quality tools.
