General Motors
We are seeking a highly motivated
Senior Software Test Engineer
to join our development team. This role is critical in supporting algorithm verification, hardware/software integration and vehicle-level troubleshooting. The ideal candidate will have strong technical expertise in embedded systems, automotive electronics, and diagnostic tools, with a passion for driving continuous improvement in processes and tools.
Key Responsibilities
Test Development & Execution
Collaborate with algorithm teams to develop test cases.
Execute Key Behavior Tests (KBTs) and Milestone Tests and run them both on Hardware in the Loop and Software in the loop simulations.
Document results, post findings, and sign off work tickets.
Process & Tool Improvements
Identify and document improvements in standard work practices.
Implement enhancements to testing tools, workflows, and reporting systems.
Control Module Verification
Validate functionality on hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) benches and in-vehicle environments.
Ensure compliance with low-level hardware interfaces, serial programming, message authentication, diagnostics, electrical interfaces, and legislated requirements.
Vehicle-Level Troubleshooting
Diagnose and resolve integration issues across hardware, software, calibration, instrumentation, and wiring.
Support Problem Resolution and Tracking Systems (PRTS) and Global Incident Management (GIMs).
Development & Fleet Support
Participate in development trips, assembly plant activities, prototype shops, garages, and fleet testing. (Less than 10%)
Experimental Software Development
Develop and validate experimental software for proposed changes.
Support rapid prototyping and proof-of-concept initiatives.
Code Reviews & Specifications
Conduct and participate in code reviews for algorithms, software, and specifications.
Ensure alignment with I/O functional requirements and test cases.
Qualifications
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or related field.
3+ years of experience in automotive electronics, embedded systems, or control module development.
Hands-on experience with hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) systems and vehicle diagnostics.
Strong knowledge of automotive communication protocols (CAN, LIN, Ethernet).
Familiarity with legislated compliance standards and vehicle assembly/service tools.
Proficiency in troubleshooting complex integration issues across hardware and software domains.
Experience with experimental software development and rapid prototyping.
Excellent communication, documentation, and collaboration skills.
Preferred Skills
Experience with vehicle calibration and instrumentation.
Knowledge of diagnostic tools and legislated compliance requirements.
Familiarity with prototype shop and fleet testing environments.
Strong problem-solving mindset and ability to work in cross-functional teams.
Familiarity with ETAS/INCA, dSpace with AMS, Autobot/Robot framework, Vehicle Spy/Vector CANalyzer/CANoe
Location
Milford Proving Grounds preferred with travel to assembly plants, prototype shops, and development fleet sites as required.
Why Join Us This role offers the opportunity to work on cutting-edge automotive technology, contribute to process improvements, and directly impact vehicle integration success. You’ll collaborate with multidisciplinary teams and gain exposure to both experimental and production-level development.
