Descripción

Global Manufacturing Electrical & SDV is looking for innovators who thrive in tough challenges and are passionate about tackling meaningful work that will shape the future of the automotive industry. This isn’t a role for those looking for an easy path—it’s for those who embrace change, push through obstacles, and take ownership of complex problems. While there will be long days and moments that test your resilience, you’ll find purpose in your work, flexibility to prioritize your family, and the support of a people-first culture. If you’re ready to grow, thrive, and make a real impact, we’d love to hear from you.

WHY: The purpose of this role is to support today’s EOL systems while enabling the future of manufacturing through scalable, forward‑looking technical solutions that strengthen quality, efficiency, and readiness for next‑generation capabilities.

WHAT: As a Manufacturing Software Development Engineer, you will execute technical solutions for end‑of‑line (EOL) software by building subsystem expertise, supporting cross‑functional alignment, and contributing to the team’s generational technical knowledge.

HOW: Supporting the plants to make it happen for our customers.

Work Arrangement - Onsite

The successful candidate is expected to report to the Warren Tech Center on a full-time basis. This role requires up to 10% domestic and international travel.

What You’ll Do (Responsibilities):

Foster a forward-thinking work culture that embraces change and navigates future organizational and industry challenges.
Build and nurture strategic relationships across various functions including software, manufacturing, and program management to synergize efforts towards future innovations.
Contribute to a forward‑thinking technical culture by embracing change, sharing ideas, and supporting continuous improvement across end‑of‑line (EOL) and manufacturing software systems.
Collaborate with cross‑functional partners in software, manufacturing, and program teams to solve problems, exchange technical information, and support the development of future solutions.
Build understanding of key vehicle subsystems and how they interact with end‑of‑line (EOL) software, incorporating this knowledge into clear internal documentation and shared technical references that strengthen generational knowledge within the team.
Support global EOL system initiatives by contributing to technical direction, documenting engineering milestones, and maintaining accurate technical plans for assigned work-streams.
Ensure alignment across functions by coordinating with Manufacturing, Product Engineering, Software, and plant teams to clarify requirements, identify risks, and support integrated system execution.
Represent Manufacturing as a technical contributor, communicating clearly with assembly plants and leadership on system status, issues, and upcoming needs within your scope.
Develop technical components of scalable EOL system architectures, participating in design reviews and ensuring solutions meet current requirements while preparing for future enhancements.
Execute end‑to‑end engineering tasks for EOL system solutions, including concept development, technical planning, validation, and deployment support into plant operations.
Support today’s EOL systems while contributing to next‑generation capabilities, ensuring system stability, continuous improvement, and readiness for future manufacturing needs.

Your Skills and Abilities (Required Qualifications):

Hands‑on C++ development experience building and modifying production‑quality software; ability to implement well‑scoped changes with clean code, unit tests, and code reviews.
Foundational understanding of vehicle electrical systems and how software interacts with end‑of‑line processes and plant tooling.
Ability to translate requirements into small design updates or tasks, estimate effort, and deliver increments that integrate with existing systems.
Experience debugging and resolving defects using logs, debuggers, and structured troubleshooting; comfort reproducing issues and validating fixes.
Familiarity with version control and branching workflows (e.g., Git‑based), and participation in peer reviews for code and design.
Clear written and verbal communication skills; ability to document changes, author runbooks/FAQs, and collaborate with software, product engineering, and plant partners.
Learning mindset—demonstrated curiosity, openness to feedback, and willingness to grow toward deeper system understanding and broader ownership over time.
Ability to follow structured engineering processes (work tracking, test evidence, acceptance criteria) and maintain accuracy in technical documentation.
Bachelor Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related technical field.

What Will Give You a Competitive Edge (Preferred Qualifications):

Experience implementing C++ changes in distributed or multi‑process systems, including inter‑process messaging, configuration, or I/O drivers used at end‑of‑line.
Exposure to diagnostic communications and subsystem interactions (e.g., basic understanding of how test applications talk to controllers at the end of line).
Practical experience with integration testing, hardware‑in‑the‑loop or bench testing, and creating test cases that validate software changes against plant requirements.
Experience contributing to design discussions (sequence diagrams, interface updates), and proposing small technical improvements under guidance.
Familiarity with risk/defect analysis techniques (e.g., identifying failure modes, documenting mitigations) and writing clear, reproducible bug reports.
Exposure to manufacturing environments or collaboration with assembly‑plant personnel to support deployments, triage issues, and gather feedback.
Working knowledge of Jira (or similar) for work tracking and GitHub (or similar) for pull requests, code reviews, and CI signals; willingness to deepen expertise.
Experience creating or maintaining internal documentation that captures “how it works,” change notes, and “day‑2” support tips for operations team
