Description
As an Electronic Noise & Vibration engineer you will author SOPs, test plan and specifications. You will quantify noises, facilitate user studies, establish thresholds in lab and factory environments. These will enable you to educate multi-functional teams to implement known standard methodologies and run studies to learn new best practices. The analysis of the validation work that you will lead will help you to better understand root causes of various problems. You will work closely with partner facilities overseas but will need to travel minimally.
- Though most of our engineers have advanced degrees in Mechanical Engineering, a Bachelors degree is required at a minimum. But if you've learned about multi-physics from adjacent fields in Applied Physics, Electrical Engineering or Acoustics Engineering, we still want to hear from you. Experience as a "generalist" in multiple types of engineering work is valuable.
- Creative problem solver who thrives in a fast-paced multi-tasking environment
Preferred Qualifications
- Knowledge of acoustics and vibration principles and how motion of mechanical systems turns into radiated noise
- Fundamental knowledge of how voltage potential and current can lead to vibration
- Basic understanding of RF, thermal, acoustic, magnetics, and mechanical statics and dynamics (preferred if these fundamentals have been applied to acoustic transducers such as MEMs microphones, receivers and micro-speakers)
- Acoustic and vibration measurement skills with experience making measurements in anechoic/hemi-anechoic chambers
- Accomplished listener with excellent hearing over the audible frequency range
- Ability to learn new coding languages and navigate large datasets
- Useful but not required: history of high-volume consumer electronics, experience with ultra low-noise measurements and a background electrical engineering. Familiarity with sensing technologies and their electrical interfaces such as PDM, differential analog, I2C
