General Motors
Software Systems Engineer, Behavior Requirements and Validation
General Motors, Sunnyvale, California, United States, 94087
Hybrid:
This role is categorized as remote.
Role:
As a Software Systems Engineer on the Software Validation team within the AV organization, you will play a critical role in the execution of validation efforts for autonomous vehicle behavior. You will leverage your experience to craft guidance on behavioral performance and to design and implement complex V&V strategies. You will work with a team of engineers to define best practices, design and execute innovative analyses to establish performance requirements, drive innovation in testing, 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.
What You’ll Do:
Define requirements and metrics for validating safe and comfortable autonomous vehicle operations.
Analyze and characterize one or multiple autonomous behaviors, influencing software development and launch decisions
Prototype and develop simulation-based and road-based testing strategies that support continuous and scaled software release cycles
Use data analytics to facilitate data driven design, validation, risk analysis, and prioritization decisions
Facilitate cross-team collaboration to define behavioral requirements definition and behavioral validation strategies for new launches
Your Skills & Abilities
Advanced degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, Data Science, or related fields
2+ years of experience 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
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
What Will Give You A Competitive Edge
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
Industry experience in system engineering and requirements management including system analysis, requirements authoring, test generation, and validation activities
Experience with requirements management tools (Jama, DNG, DOORS, etc.)
Proven track record of successful systems engineering for a safety-critical product
