General Motors, California, Missouri, United States, 65018
Senior Software Engineer, Behavior Validation
Join to apply for the Senior Software Engineer, Behavior Validation role at General Motors.
Hybrid: This role is categorized as remote.
Role: As a Senior Software Engineer on the Software Validation team within the AV organization, you will play a critical role in the development of simulation-based validation efforts for autonomous vehicle behavior. You will leverage your experience in software engineering to convert validation strategies into well‑architected and implemented code that analyzes AV behavior. You will work with a team of engineers to define best practices, raise the bar internally on coding quality, and verify the safety and performance of autonomous systems. You will be responsible for shaping the future of evaluation methodologies for AI systems and other ADAS features, architecting solutions that meet the testing needs of AI developers, systems engineers, and safety stakeholders.
About the Organization: The Autonomous Vehicle (AV) organization is dedicated to advancing the development of autonomous vehicles through cutting‑edge simulation technologies and novel iterative development processes. The Behavior Validation team focuses on unlocking software launches and continuous release decisions via simulation verification and validation strategies, prototypes, and protocols. Our collaborative environment fosters innovation and excellence, allowing us to push the boundaries of what is possible in autonomous vehicle testing.
Responsibilities
Develop and prototype strategies to benchmark autonomy systems’ performance.
Convert validation strategies into production code that executes high‑quality AV behavior analysis for continuous and scaled software release cycles.
Use data analytics to facilitate data‑driven design, validation, risk analysis, and prioritization decisions.
Build tools that scale systems engineering prototyped testing products to additional users like the software release team and Embodied AI.
Facilitate cross‑team collaboration to establish coding best practices for the Software Validation Organization.
Skills & Abilities
Advanced degree in Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Physics, Data Science, or related fields.
4+ years of experience in software engineering; bonus if overlap in systems engineering, robotics, systems analysis, data analysis, statistical analysis, or other related fields.
Experienced with SQL, Python, and C++ for analyzing large data sets and building production‑quality simulation testing products.
Strong analytical thinking skills with the ability to interpret data and derive impactful conclusions.
Ability to adapt and operate under ambiguity, going from quick code prototypes to long‑term plans on brief time horizons.
Excellent communication skills, capable of switching between high‑level and detailed discussions.
Competitive Edge
Proven track record of successful software engineering on a safety‑critical product, especially as it related to verification and validation tools.
Experience with robotics, autonomous vehicles, vehicle development, or ADAS development.
Experience working with robotics simulation environments.
Experience analyzing automotive collision data.
Experience developing dashboards and data visualizations using tools such as Looker or Jupyter notebooks.
