Description supplied by the original job listing.
At AFRY, we believe that sound has the power to shape how people experience the places where they live, work and meet.
We are now looking for an Acoustician with a strong background in building acoustics and environmental noise to join our growing Acoustics, Sound and Vibration team in Sweden, with around 80 acousticians across the country.
This is an opportunity for an ambitious acoustic engineer who wants to work on challenging projects, collaborate with leading specialists across disciplines and contribute to projects both in Sweden and internationally.
As an Acoustician at AFRY, you will work with a broad range of projects within building acoustics and environmental noise. You will be involved from early-stage studies and concept development through detailed design and construction.
Key Responsibilities:
Building acoustics and acoustic design of residential, office, educational, healthcare and public buildings
Environmental noise assessments related to road and rail traffic, industry and urban development
Acoustic calculations, modelling and simulations
Noise mapping and prediction
Evaluation of acoustic measurements
Development of acoustic solutions, strategies and mitigation measures
Preparation of technical specifications
Providing expert advice to project teams
You will have the opportunity to work across the full project lifecycle and develop your expertise in the areas where you can create the greatest value.
Must have:
A university degree in acoustics, engineering, physics, building physics or a related field
5+ years of professional experience as an acoustician or acoustic consultant
Solid experience in building acoustics and/or environmental noise
Experience of acoustic calculations, modelling and technical analysis
Experience working in multidisciplinary construction or infrastructure projects
The ability to communicate complex acoustic issues clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
A structured and independent way of working
Strong written and spoken English
Experience in building acoustics within healthcare projects is particularly valuable.
Experience with software such as SoundPLAN, CadnaA, CadnaB, SONArchitect, INSUL, Bastian, Odeon, Treble, Rhino/Grasshopper, Sketchup, AutoCAD, Revit, BIM is an advantage. Experience with equivalent tools is also highly relevant.
Knowledge of Swedish acoustic standards and regulations is an advantage, but not a prerequisite.
Knowledge and experience within the following areas are particularly valuable:
Façade and window sound insulation calculations with respect to road and rail traffic noise
Airborne sound insulation calculations between rooms
Impact sound insulation calculations between rooms
Preparation of drawings and documentation specifying acoustic requirements for walls, glazed partitions and doors
Sound transmission calculations between rooms, including break-in and break-out noise through ventilation ducts
Noise assessment of air handling units and ventilation fan systems
Room acoustic simulations and calculations, including reverberation time and Speech Transmission Index (STI).
