Who are we? Volvo Cars is a company on a mission; to bring traditional car manufacturing into a connected, sustainable and smart future. Since 1927, we have been a brand known for our commitment to safety, creating innovative cars that make life less complicated for our consumers. In 2010, we decided to transform our business, resulting in a totally new generation of cars and technologies, as well as steady growth and record sales. Today, we’re expanding our global footprint in Europe, China and the US, and we’re on the lookout for new talent. We are constantly pushing our own skills and abilities to drive change in the automobile industry like never before. We are looking for innovative, committed people to join us in this endeavour and create safe, sustainable and connected cars. We believe in the power of people and will challenge and support you to reach your full potential. Join us and be part of Volvo Cars’ journey into the future. What do we offer? The Body Structure Dynamics team is a part of Driving Experience within Engineering at Volvo Cars Headquarters in Gothenburg. Driving Experience supports the strategic direction of “Freedom to move in a Personal, Sustainable & Safe way”. We organize competence in dynamic attributes such as vehicle dynamics, brake attributes, performance & drivability, road noise, wind noise, solidity, operational sound quality, audio & ANC performance, interactive sound design and trimmed body acoustics & dynamics. In close collaboration with the design and release of ARTs, we take responsibility for a personal experience for our end users. What you’ll do We are now expanding our team with one Senior CAE Analysis Engineer and YOU will be part of our team to strengthen the deliverables and development of the next generation of body structures. You will work cross-functionally with both driving dynamics and Noise, Vibration & Harshness (NVH) but with a focus towards optimization of the body structure to improve the attributes of NVH and driving dynamics. You will perform CAE concept studies of static and dynamic body stiffness and its influence on NVH, propose improvements and drive necessary change together with involved design areas. You will be participating in car program teams, setting the requirements at a systems level, communicating test results, and guiding the design work from an NVH and vehicle dynamics perspective. You will drive and take the lead in different work tasks, participate in the development of new methods and guidelines, and well as in the implementation of new software/hardware. Do you fit the profile? We believe that the required skills and experience to fulfil the role are: - M.Sc. in mechanical engineering, technical acoustics, engineering physics or similar - 8 years of experience in structural design for dynamics and acoustics - Qualified in structural dynamics is required - Knowledge of vehicle dynamics is a plus - Knowledge of Nastran, ANSA and MATLAB - Understand the value of combining test and CAE methods - Ability to transfer knowledge - A driving license is a plus
