Acoustics & Vibration Engineer

Acoustics & Vibration Engineer

6-Month Contract | Fully Remote | Outside IR35 |

We're supporting a leading aerospace engineering programme seeking an experienced Acoustics & Vibration Engineer to join a specialist engineering team on a 6-month contract basis.

This is a fully remote opportunity, although candidates should be willing to work occasionally within Canadian business hours to support stakeholder meetings, project reviews and programme activities.

The Role

You will play a key role in the development and validation of advanced acoustic and vibration solutions for next-generation aircraft programmes. Working within a multidisciplinary engineering environment, you will be responsible for simulation, analysis, testing and engineering recommendations aimed at enhancing cabin acoustic comfort and vibration performance.

Key Responsibilities

Develop and maintain acoustic and vibration simulation models.
Perform Finite Element Analysis (FEA), Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA) and other modelling activities.
Assess and optimise design solutions to improve noise and vibration performance.
Support laboratory-based validation and test campaigns.
Analyse test data and produce technical reports with engineering recommendations.
Collaborate with engineering, production and programme teams to resolve acoustics and vibration issues.
Support the integration of new aircraft technologies while ensuring acoustic comfort standards are maintained.
Contribute to the development of new simulation methods, tools and engineering processes.

Required Experience

Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Acoustics, Aerospace Engineering or a related discipline.
Strong experience within acoustics, vibration, NVH or structural dynamics engineering.
Experience using FEA tools such as ANSYS, Nastran, Abaqus, HyperWorks or Simcenter.
Understanding of vibration measurement, modal analysis and signal processing techniques.
Experience interpreting simulation and physical test results.
Ability to work independently in a remote engineering environment.
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.

Desirable Experience

Master's Degree or PhD in Acoustics, Vibration, Structural Dynamics or a related field.
Experience with SEA modelling and acoustic simulation.
Aerospace, automotive NVH or transportation industry background.
Experience supporting physical testing and validation programmes.
Knowledge of cabin acoustics, sound quality or passenger comfort engineering.
