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.

Contract Details

• 6-Month Initial Contract
• Outside IR35
• Fully Remote
• Occasional Availability During Canadian Working Hours Required
• Competitive Day Rate

If you have a background in Acoustics, NVH, Vibration Analysis, Structural Dynamics or Advanced Simulation Engineering and are interested in working on cutting-edge aerospace programmes, we'd love to hear from you.
