Job Description

Racing is where our story began.

In 1901, Henry Ford climbed into a car he built himself, "Sweepstakes," and beat America's most famous driver. He wasn't a racer, but he had to win. He did. Ford Motor Company was born from that victory.

That fighting spirit lives on in Ford Racing today. We're the engineers, strategists, and competitors who bring Ford's track-tested edge into every vehicle we build. Every track, every stage, every proving ground that's where we prove ourselves.

The result: one of the world's most iconic brands, legendary nameplates, and a team unmatched in the industry.

Our mantra: Race to win, engineer to lead.

If you're a competitor, innovator, or performance obsessive, Ford Racing is where you belong. Help us write the next chapter.

In this position...

As a Ford Racing NVH CAE Engineer, you will play a key role in developing some of the industry’s most capable and exciting high-performance cars and trucks. This role is ideal for a self-motivated, proactive engineer who can lead the full vehicle simulation process—from model build and analysis through issue resolution. The successful candidate will bring strong organization, collaboration, problem-solving, and communication skills while partnering closely with attribute and functional engineering teams in a fast-paced development environment.

This is a full-time, on-site position based at the Ford Racing offices in Allen Park, MI.

Responsibilities

What you will do...

  • Complete analytical assessments of NVH and Secondary Ride attributes at each program milestone, using CAE, simulators, and diagnostic tools to identify root causes, define solutions, and close gaps to target.
  • Plan, build, and maintain full-vehicle CAE models throughout development and test phases.
  • Lead all model-correlation activities, including test-to-CAE correlation for prototype and system-level builds (UNV0, TDC/TPV, DCV).
  • Source CAD and meshed model data from internal teams and full-service suppliers.
  • Lead physical testing activities, including mount/bushing characterization, on-road correlation and validation, and input-load data collection (spindle, mount, powertrain torsional vibration).
  • Deliver analytical sign-off across key NVH attributes (Idle, Driveline Imbalance, Lugging, Road Noise/Boom, Rough Road Shake, 4 Poster Shake, Tire Wheel Imbalance Sensitivity, Modal Analysis).
  • Serve as the simulation point person for assigned programs, communicating attribute status, issues, and workplans; help set pre-program targets and support design/tuning freeze decisions.
  • Complete and document analytical DVP requirements and support powertrain sound-quality model development.
  • Develop data-management and automation toolsets to support the NVH engineering team.

Qualifications

You'll have...

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
  • Sponsorship is NOT available now or in the future
  • Demonstrated proficiency using Nastran, HyperWorks, ANSA, or similar tools to assess vehicle system performance and support problem solving.
  • Ability to use MATLAB and/or Python scripting for data processing and automation.
  • Strong understanding of NVH fundamentals and systems, including source-path-receiver principles and modal analysis.
  • Proven performance record, strong communication skills, and adaptability in a fast-paced, evolving environment.
  • Strong work ethic, schedule flexibility, and passion for performance vehicles and racing.

Even better, if you have...

  • Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
  • Experience with data acquisition and analysis tools, such as LMS, B&K, DET, PT Diag, CANalyzer, or similar systems.
  • 5+ years of experience in vehicle or systems NVH development, or equivalent vehicle engineering attribute experience such as vehicle dynamics or VEME.
  • 5+ years of experience applying CAE and simulation tools or methods in NVH system or vehicle development.
  • Experience with Catia, 3DX, or similar toolsets.
  • Experience in powertrain, body structures, chassis systems, and/or vehicle architecture development.
