CAE Engineer

Job Overview

Job Title:

CAE Engineer 3

Location:

Newark, CA (Onsite)
DURATION: 5 months
RATE RANGE: $54 - $64/hr.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or related field with 5–7 years of hands‑on experience in CAE, NVH, or mechanical engineering analysis.
• Proficiency in NVH simulation, vehicle structure analysis, and CAE tools such as Opti Struct for body, chassis, powertrain, and full‑vehicle level analyses.
• Strong experience in meshing, mechanical correlation studies between test and simulation data, and optimization of vehicle designs for noise, vibration, and harshness performance.

The main function of a CAE Engineer is to perform engineering analysis using computer-aided engineering tools to optimize product designs and manufacturing processes. This role involves collaborating with various engineering teams to ensure that products meet performance, durability, and safety standards.

• Help design and solve noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) problems in electric vehicles.
• Assist with multiple computer-aided engineering (CAE) projects (e.g., concept mock-ups, parametrization processes).
• Help with mechanical engineering projects relating to noise and vibration activities to ensure vehicles deliver the highest level of performance.
• Assist with vehicle structure projects, including NVH sub‑system analyses (e.g., body, chassis, powertrain) as well as NVH CAE analyses at the body in white (BIW) and full‑vehicle levels.
• Assist with NVH CAE analyses at the sub‑system and component levels.
• Assist with CAE analyses by utilizing Opti Struct.
• Help improve the Company's design concepts for NVH performance, including feasibility processes by liaising with internal engineering teams (e.g., BIW, battery systems, chassis, interiors, exteriors).
• Assist with mechanical engineering correlation studies between test data and CAE data.
• Help assess mechanical engineering improvement processes for modeling and analyses purposes.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field.
• 5–7 years of experience required.
