What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an NVH Test Engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as an NVH Test Engineer, you need a solid background in mechanical or automotive engineering, with expertise in noise, vibration, and harshness analysis. Familiarity with data acquisition systems, vibration analysis software (such as LMS Test.Lab or Brüel & Kjær), and experience with testing equipment are typically required. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and effective communication are crucial soft skills for interpreting test results and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams. These competencies ensure accurate NVH assessments, leading to improved product quality and enhanced user experience in automotive or manufacturing environments.

What are some common challenges faced by NVH Test Engineers during vehicle testing, and how are they typically addressed?

NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) Test Engineers often face challenges such as isolating specific sources of noise or vibration within complex vehicle systems, as well as managing test variables like environmental conditions and driver input. These challenges are typically addressed through meticulous planning of test setups, the use of advanced data acquisition tools, and close collaboration with design and simulation teams to interpret results accurately. Additionally, NVH Test Engineers must often adapt testing procedures to accommodate prototype vehicles or evolving design changes, requiring flexibility and strong problem-solving skills.

What are NVH Test Engineers?

NVH Test Engineers are professionals who specialize in evaluating and improving the Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) characteristics of vehicles and mechanical systems. They use specialized tools and testing procedures to identify sources of unwanted noise and vibration, and work closely with design and development teams to implement solutions that enhance comfort and product quality. NVH Test Engineers play a crucial role in the automotive and aerospace industries, ensuring that products meet industry standards and customer expectations for quietness and ride comfort.

What is the difference between Nvh Test Engineer vs Acoustic Test Engineer?

AspectNvh Test EngineerAcoustic Test Engineer
CredentialsBachelor's in Mechanical, Automotive, or Acoustics; relevant certificationsBachelor's in Acoustics, Mechanical Engineering, or related; certifications preferred
Work EnvironmentAutomotive, aerospace, or manufacturing labs focusing on noise and vibration testingAcoustic labs, vehicle testing facilities, or product development environments
Industry UsageUsed in automotive, aerospace, and consumer electronics industries for NVH testingPrimarily in automotive and audio equipment industries for acoustic performance testing

While both roles focus on sound and vibration, the Nvh Test Engineer specializes in noise, vibration, and harshness testing to improve vehicle or product comfort. The Acoustic Test Engineer concentrates on analyzing and optimizing sound quality and acoustic performance. Both roles require similar technical skills and certifications but differ in their specific focus areas within the industry.

Job description

Position Overview
We are seeking a college graduate Noise & Vibration (NVH) Engineer to join our Vehicle Dynamics & NVH Team at the International Proving Grounds.
This role is hands-on and testing-focused, supporting vehicle development through interior noise, exterior pass-by noise, vibration, buzz/squeak/rattle (BSR), and sound quality evaluations on medium- and heavy-duty vehicles.
This is an excellent opportunity for an entry-level engineer who wants to work directly with vehicles, instrumentation, and real-world data - not a desk-only simulation role.
Responsibilities
As a member of the Vehicle Dynamics & NVH team, you will:
  • Perform vehicle level NVH testing, including:
    • Interior noise
    • Exterior pass by noise
    • Vibration and BSR evaluations
    • Sound quality assessments
  • Support test planning, setup, and execution on prototype and production vehicles
  • Install and verify instrumentation, including microphones, accelerometers, tachometers, and data acquisition hardware
  • Conduct on road and stationary vehicle tests at the proving grounds
  • Process and analyze test data using NVH measurement and post processing software
  • Document test results in clear engineering reports and support compliance or development decisions
  • Work closely with:
    • NVH engineers
    • Vehicle dynamics and powertrain teams
    • Technicians and program teams
    • Assist with root cause investigations and validation of noise and vibration improvements

Minimum Requirements
  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Engineering Technology or Computer Science

Additional Requirements
  • Qualified candidates, excluding current employees, must be legally authorized on an unrestricted basis (US Citizen, Legal Permanent Resident, Refugee or Asylee) to be employed in the United States. We do not anticipate providing employment related work sponsorship for this position (e.g., H-1B status)

Desired Skills
  • Strong interest in noise, vibration, and sound quality
  • Willingness to work hands-on with vehicles and instrumentation
  • Ability to work outdoors and in shop / proving-ground environments
  • Strong communication skills and attention to detail
  • Demonstrated ability to work in a team environment.
  • Excellent Communication Skills - both written and verbal
  • Valid driver's license

Benefits and Compensation
This position offers competitive market-based compensation, along with a comprehensive benefits package designed to support employee wellbeing. You can learn more about the benefits offered for this position by visiting https://careers.international.com/#benefits.
The expected salary offered for this position will fall within the stated range, with the final offer based on the candidates' applicable skills, knowledge, and experience.
