Descripción

Hybrid: Position does not require an employee to be on-site full-time, but the general expectation is that the employee be onsite an average of three (3) days each week.

The Role

The GM Motorsports Program is seeking a Performance Integration Engineer to promote integration and collaboration across multiple engineering groups with a focus on ensuring that learnings are transferred across groups, improvements are uniformly implemented, and processes standardized. The Performance Integration Engineer will specifically coordinate between simulation, aero development, and tire scaling groups to establish standards for DIL (driver in the loop) simulator testing and desktop simulations. A portion of the role will encompass setting DIL test plans, developing and running simulations, and correlation of simulation models to physical, on-track performance. You will also identify future areas of focus for modeling improvement and work with internal GM groups to both validate solutions and implement these in production processes.

What You’ll Do

Collaborate with internal GM groups and GM supported teams to coordinate simulation approach and uniformly implement the latest modeling and process improvements developed by GM motorsports groups:

Regularly communicate with internal and external parties
Remain informed of latest advances within each GM department
Relay newest findings, current areas of development, and updates to tools/processes to all relevant groups, internal and external
Actively participate in team DIL sessions to ensure understanding of standard practices and identify areas of correlation discrepancy requiring future investigation

Continuously strive to improve GM Motorsports program methods and vehicle dynamics understanding by:

Globally approaching correlation questions
Critically assessing areas of deviation between modeling output and on-track performance
Road mapping solutions to problem areas and working together with each GM internal group to develop and implement solutions
Performing simulation studies and in-depth analysis of logged track data and driver feedback.
Actively seeking feedback from teams and drivers
Guiding Post-Race and Post-Test DIL sessions through working with all parties to establish objectives, identify laps for correlation, and prep simulation models
Documenting DIL and simulation activity/advances through contributions to regular Performance Group reports
