Hybrid.

This role is categorized as hybrid. This means the successful candidate is expected to report to Warren or Milford, Michigan three times per week, at minimum. Overview

At General Motors, we are committed to creating a world with zero crashes, zero emissions, and zero congestion. Our Central Compute hardware team is at the forefront of developing cutting-edge technologies like premium In Vehicle Infotainment display and audio features, Mechatronics control of the entire vehicle, radio and BT connectivity, and Super Cruise Hands-Free Automated Driving that enhance vehicle safety, performance, and autonomy. As we move to in-sourcing hardware design we are building a hardware engineering team that will own the end-to-end design and development of our Central Compute hardware. In this role, the Senior Hardware Design Engineer – Central Compute will be responsible for the technical design & development of the new Central Compute hardware platform for GM’s next generation vehicles. The role requires an experienced professional with a background in automotive ECU architecture, design, and analysis, and a proven ability of successfully launching Compute hardware into production. Responsibilities

Design of Compute electrical hardware: from SoC/key component selection, schematic capture, worst case analysis, PCB layout, bring-up, debug, signal integrity and power integrity (SI/PI), design verification test (environmental and EMC), to manufacturing support and production launch Design and development of a Compute hardware platform (from concept design to launch) while meeting cost, timing, quality, and safety targets Collaborate with cross-functional teams, such as software, mechanical, and manufacturing, to ensure seamless integration of the electrical design of the Central Compute hardware Work closely with contract manufacturing partners to ensure successful product build, from prototype through to mass production, while maintaining quality, cost, and timing targets Electrical schematic design and PCB layout in Mentor Graphics Support new IC design/development strategic to new ADAS Compute designs and architectures Perform/support detailed hardware analysis – worst case analysis, signal integrity, power integrity, etc. Execute bring-up of hardware design from power supplies, SoCs, MCUs, SerDes interfaces, network devices, etc. Lead design for manufacturing (DFM), design for assembly (DFA), and design for testing (DFT) Drive the validation and testing of hardware components and systems, ensuring high levels of reliability and performance requirements are met Establish test plans and protocols to validate designs against requirements. Troubleshoot hardware issues, perform root cause analysis, and develop solutions to resolve design problems Support manufacturing partners in troubleshooting and resolving any production-related issues that arise during the manufacturing process Conduct design reviews and provide constructive feedback to ensure optimal solutions Lead/support DFMEA/PFMEA of Central Compute; ensure lessons learned and best practices are included Provide guidance and consultation to Design Release Engineers (DREs) Qualifications

Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science or equivalent. 5+ years of experience in electronic hardware design, with a strong focus on Compute and Mechatronic hardware design and automotive hardware electronics design Proven ability of successfully launching Compute build-to-print hardware into production Experience in designing Compute hardware and components, such as SoCs, MCUs, PCIe, DDR, UFS, eMMC, GMSL, FPD-Link, Ethernet Switches, PHY, CAN, power supply design, etc. Strong proficiency in circuit design, schematic creation, PCB layout, signal integrity and power integrity, and power management. Experience in design & analysis tools like: Mentor Graphics (schematic & layout), Ansys (signal integrity), Simplis (power integrity), Altair (EMC), Mathcad, PSpice & Saber In-depth knowledge of requirements engineering process (FMEA, Preliminary Hazard Analyses) In-depth knowledge of electronic module verification and validation processes In-depth knowledge of embedded software development, testing and associated tools Understanding of hardware design and failure modes Thorough knowledge of design development and test engineering, manufacturing and assembly operations, engineering processes and procedures. Experience with system-level integration, including interfacing with sensors, processors, and communication protocols, preferably with ADAS, Infotainment and Mechatronics Experience with design for manufacturing (DFM), design for assembly (DFA), and design for testing (DFT) Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and communication skills. Proven ability to lead complex projects and work in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment Preferred Qualifications

Masters’ degree Experience with automotive industry standards (ISO 26262, ASIL) and safety-critical design principles (QM-ASIL D) This job may be eligible for relocation benefits.
