General Motors
At General Motors, our product teams are redefining mobility. Through a human-centered design process, we create vehicles and experiences that are designed not just to be seen, but to be felt. We’re turning today’s impossible into tomorrow’s standard —from breakthrough hardware and battery systems to intuitive design, intelligent software, and next-generation safety and entertainment features.
Every day, our products move millions of peopleas we aim to makedriving safer, smarter, and more connected, shaping the future of transportation on a global scale.
The Role Body PI engineer is the primary liaison between ME Body and Product Engineering, ensuring that the product design is driven by manufacturing needs by following Manufacturing Requirements (MRs) and Best Practices (BPs.) This role focuses on achieving global inter-buildability, maintaining top-tier static quality, and aligning with GM's "Lean" manufacturing principles and systems. PI engineers oversee programs throughout the entire GVDP lifecycle, actively seeking solutions to complex problems and aiming for cost reductions.
