About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Directly lead the product integration team
Define and evolve the SDV product-integration strategy, operating model, methods, standards, and readiness criteria across vehicle programs
Establish a feature-centered digital thread linking feature behavior and variants to hardware, wiring, HWIO, signals, services, controllers, software repositories, infrastructure dependencies, calibration, builds, vehicle configurations, test cases, logs, and integration evidence
Create machine-readable feature and system models connecting functional behavior, data flow, network paths, physical interfaces, software implementation, degraded behavior, and variant-specific content for CCU-level automation testing
Drive cross-stack dependency identification across electrical architecture, software, cybersecurity, identity and authorization, service discovery, network management, flash programming, deployment, calibration, diagnostics, logging, observability, time synchronization, and configuration management
Define progressive integration and validation strategies from source/component analysis through controller builds, virtual subsystems, hardware subsystems, multi-controller integration, full-vehicle validation, and release readiness
Establish bench-automation and subsystem-surrogate strategies, including missing-controller simulation, sensor and actuator surrogates, rest-bus simulation, controlled fault injection, stub detection, automated bench configuration, reusable feature test environments, and progressive replacement with production content
Develop simulation and test cases and a consolidated reporting structure
Develop automated analysis tracing signal producers and consumers, validating services and calibrations, comparing HWIO usage with electrical definitions, detecting stubbed or bypassed behavior, checking variant compatibility, and comparing source intent with compiled-build behavior
Define CI/CD quality gates, integration evidence, entry and exit criteria, promotion criteria, failure ownership, escalation paths, and feedback loops into requirements, design, code, calibration, and standard work
Lead feature-level root-cause analysis and triage across organizational boundaries
Translate operational evidence into improvements for engineering products, tools, and processes
Build alignment among senior technical leaders and partner organizations, resolve conflicting assumptions, and communicate risks, decisions, and recommendations

Requirements

What you’ll need

Extensive theoretical and practical expertise in complex vehicle electrical, embedded software, systems, or software-defined vehicle integration
Demonstrated ability to connect hardware, networks, controllers, software, calibration, infrastructure, validation, and vehicle-level behavior into an end-to-end technical view
Experience solving unique, multidimensional, and ambiguous problems with limited information through independent judgment and long-term perspective
Proven ability to establish technical strategy, standards, methods, and operating models influencing multiple teams, programs, or functional areas
Experience leading cross-functional integration, release-readiness, root-cause, or quality-improvement initiatives with measurable business or product impact
Strong understanding of CAN, LIN, SENT, Ethernet, signals, services, HWIO, ARXML, software builds, calibration, and configuration or variant content
Ability to translate complex technical relationships into traceable models, automated checks, quality gates, and repeatable engineering practices
Strong communication, negotiation, facilitation, and conflict-resolution skills across technical and organizational boundaries
Demonstrated commitment to GM Values and Behaviors
Preferred: experience with SDV architecture, multi-controller feature integration, AUTOSAR or comparable embedded software platforms, and vehicle-level software release processes
Preferred: experience building digital-thread, systems-engineering, model-based, CI/CD, simulation, bench-automation, or engineering-data solutions
Preferred: experience analyzing source code, compiled controller content, calibration dependencies, network/service definitions, and operational logs
Preferred: experience defining integration evidence and readiness criteria for virtual, bench, subsystem, vehicle, and release-candidate environments
Preferred: experience influencing enterprise standards or product-development practices across multiple vehicle programs
Preferred: experience leading technical communities, mentoring senior engineers, or managing teams of engineers and technical leaders
Must not require GM immigration sponsorship now or in the future; GM does not provide immigration-related sponsorship for this role
Must report to the specified location at least 3 times per week or at a frequency dictated by the manager
