Are you passionate about diagnosing and resolving software and control system challenges in cutting-edge automotive products? As an Embedded Control System Integration Engineer, you will actively troubleshoot Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL), vehicle system bench, and vehicle integration issues leveraging your systems engineering expertise. You will collaborate with various teams, including software, calibration, Pre-Production Operations, and product development, to establish root causes and develop effective solutions that may include hardware, software, calibration, wiring, or electrical architecture. This position involves working on vehicle embedded control systems with a strong emphasis on troubleshooting engine, transmission, hybrid, electrification, chassis, and intelligent brake control system issues throughout the product lifecycle—from early development to production launch and beyond. You will partner extensively with internal development and testing teams and cross-functional groups to address an array of technical challenges, ensuring successful program launches and maintaining high-quality standards. Creativity and team synergy are essential, as you’ll be encouraged to innovate more efficient data collection and analysis methods. Your Responsibilities: Troubleshoot vehicle system issues, tracing and rectifying faults in mechatronic embedded control systems. Identify root causes of problems related to system features, controller hardware, software, calibrations, etc., that deviate from design intent or customer requirements. Support technical specialists in resolving complex system interaction issues while developing robust predictive methods to prevent future integration problems. Collaborate with technicians and other issue finders to gather pertinent data for resolving technical challenges during program development and production. Communicate controller integration issues to the relevant system issue owners. Assist test environment engineers with troubleshooting and commissioning HIL/SIL/SOLE systems for enhanced test execution. Support test engineers with infrastructure tests, including power management, ethernet, cybersecurity, and other essential assessments. Additional Responsibilities: Analyze in-house software issues utilizing debugging tools for ECU memory management and operational applications. Engage with both in-house and outsourced software suppliers and algorithm developers on cross-functional agile teams. Assist with vehicle software updates, offering support to users when flashing software or resolving related issues. Participate in vehicle build events and buy-off rides as necessary. Required Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Engineering (Electrical, Mechanical, Computer, Software, Aerospace) or Computer Science. Minimum of 2 years of experience in developing real-time control calibrations, algorithms, and software in high-level languages like C. Proven ability to cultivate strong relationships and effectively resolve complex challenges within team environments. Ability to prioritize and manage multiple assignments with autonomy and accountability, delivering quality results on schedule. Must be able to legally operate a motor vehicle on a daily basis. Willingness to provide ongoing on-site support at both Milford and Warren facilities, along with offsite on-call support. Preferred Qualifications: Master's degree in Engineering (Electrical, Mechanical, Computer, Software, Aerospace) or Computer Science. 5+ years of experience in microprocessor-based real-time control algorithms and software development. Familiarity with high voltage, propulsion, or chassis control systems in related development, testing, or calibration tasks. Experience working with HiL benches (e.g., dSPACE), Simulink, Stateflow, ETAS INCA, and Vehicle Spy. Proficiency in Python programming and experience using Jira. Experience with vehicle testing or validation at both subsystem and system levels. Familiarity with automated testing, either physical or virtual. A strong understanding of major automotive subsystems and their interactions. Join us in our mission for a world with Zero Crashes, Zero Emissions, and Zero Congestion. Together, we can drive meaningful change and foster an inclusive culture at General Motors. This position will require on-site presence at our Milford and Warren facilities.
