Experienced

MARTIN Technologies is seeking an experienced Propulsion NVH Technologist with strong hands-on experience in vehicle, exhaust, driveline, and powertrain NVH testing.

This is a senior, hands-on testing role for someone who can independently instrument vehicles and powertrains, operate NVH measurement systems, troubleshoot prototype systems, and work closely with engineers in a fast-paced development environment.

What You’ll Do

  • Instrument, set up, and perform Noise, Vibration & Harshness (NVH) testing on vehicles, powertrains, systems, and components.
  • Perform exhaust, driveline, full-vehicle on-road, and fired test chamber measurements.
  • Install and verify accelerometers, microphones, encoders, thermocouples, pressure sensors, and other NVH instrumentation.
  • Operate LMS NVH data acquisition systems and confirm test data is valid for engineering analysis.
  • Perform engine, transmission, driveline, and component changes as required for testing.
  • Conduct testing on-road, at proving grounds, and on laboratory test stands.
  • Operate diagnostic and control tools including ATI, ETAS/INCA, ADAC, CANalyzer, PTDiag, or similar systems.
  • Troubleshoot prototype vehicles, powertrain systems, instrumentation, and test equipment.
  • Interpret schematics, wiring diagrams, coolant-flow diagrams, engineering prints, and test procedures.
  • Maintain accurate test documentation and support department quality requirements.
  • Communicate test status, issues, and results clearly with engineers, requestors, and management.

Required Experience

  • High School Diploma or equivalent.
  • 2–10 years of automotive testing operations experience.
  • 2–5+ years of direct NVH development/testing experience.
  • Strong knowledge of NVH principles including FFT, order analysis, modal analysis, filtering, windowing, leakage, data acquisition, and analysis.
  • Expert-level automotive mechanical and troubleshooting knowledge.
  • Hands-on experience with NVH sensors, instrumentation, and measurement transducers.
  • Ability to work with multiple technical software systems simultaneously.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to obtain a Tier 2 driving certification.

Highly Preferred

  • Associate degree in Engineering, Automotive Technology, or related field.
  • Experience with TiVCT, GTDI, HEV, FHEV, PHEV, and Diesel systems.
  • Experience with EEPE, charge accelerometers, thermocouples, pressure transducers, and related instrumentation.
  • Strong prototype vehicle troubleshooting experience.
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently while supporting engineering teams.

Important Screening Note

Relevant NVH testing experience is required. Candidates whose experience does not demonstrate a strong match with NVH testing, data acquisition, instrumentation, automotive testing, and troubleshooting may not move forward in the selection process.
