## Description

We are seeking a Staff NVH Integration Engineer to lead the technical development and integration of NVH attributes within our vehicle platforms. This role requires an individual who defines technical paths forward when faced with complex engineering constraints and ambiguous system requirements. You will be responsible for representing NVH in design forums and ensuring a clear linkage between vehicle-level targets and sub-system performance during high-pressure delivery cycles. This position requires a technical lead who manages their own workstreams, navigates system interactions and dependencies, and delivers results under strict production timelines.
*
Target Setting & Cascading: Establish and manage NVH attribute targets, systematically cascading vehicle-level performance requirements down to the system and component levels.

 * Technical Project Management: Coordinate NVH workstreams from program kickoff to serial production, taking into account cross-functional impacts to desired NVH performance.
 * Performance Monitoring: Establish metrics, and maintain a NVH Scorecard, to continuously track project health.
 * Design Integration: Create NVH packaging guidelines for interior acoustics, exterior acoustics, damping, baffles, and sealing strategies and ensure NVH requirements are successfully integrated into next-generation vehicles.
