Description

General Motors Israel (Herzliya) plays a significant role in shaping the future of GM vehicles through cutting-edge software and advanced vehicle technologies. GM is committed to a vision of Zero Emissions, Zero Crashes, and Zero Congestion.

About the Group

Within Vehicle Camera Services, we build advanced camera-based solutions that support vehicle safety, driver assistance, and connected experiences for millions of drivers worldwide. Our domain includes rear view, surround view, connected camera capabilities, trailer and towing features, NCAP-related safety functions, and additional vision-based systems deployed across GM vehicle platforms.

We are a pragmatic, execution-focused engineering organization working across continents, disciplines, and product domains. As our systems expand across platforms, programs, and architectures, we are looking for a highly senior software engineer who combines deep technical capability with broad organizational influence.

About the Role

We are looking for a Staff Software Engineer to join our team.

This role reports directly to the Director of Software Engineering and is a senior technical leadership position for someone who is exceptionally strong in hands-on software engineering and can also drive meaningful change across multiple teams, domains, and technical layers.

This person will operate across Android, RTOS, embedded systems, platform integration, and product delivery boundaries, helping shape direction, solve critical problems, and raise engineering execution across the organization.

The right candidate has the technical depth to go deep into architecture and implementation, the judgment to navigate ambiguity, and the credibility to work directly with senior managers, directors, architects, and cross-functional leaders. They should be comfortable switching between senior technical leadership and direct hands-on work in code, debugging, design reviews, integration, and problem solving.

What will YOU do?

  • Lead technically complex efforts across Android, RTOS, and embedded software domains within the vehicle camera organization.

  • Drive architecture, design, and implementation decisions for critical software systems and cross-domain integrations.

  • Stay close to the code and work hands-on in ambiguous, high-risk, or high-impact areas.

  • Identify and resolve systemic technical issues that span components, teams, or organizational boundaries.

  • Influence software direction across platform, application, integration, and vehicle-level concerns.

  • Partner closely with engineering leaders, architects, systems engineering, program teams, and global stakeholders to align technical strategy with execution reality.

  • Translate broad product or organizational needs into practical technical plans, engineering improvements, and measurable outcomes.

  • Raise the technical bar through design reviews, code quality expectations, engineering rigor, and strong technical judgment.

  • Drive improvements in development practices, integration approaches, debugging efficiency, and delivery predictability.

  • Mentor and influence engineers across the organization through technical excellence, clarity, and execution.

  • Help the organization make sound tradeoffs across speed, quality, scalability, maintainability, and vehicle/program constraints.

  • Contribute to software that ultimately runs in production vehicles and supports critical customer-facing and safety-relevant functionality.

Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications)

  • B.Sc. in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.

  • Over 10 years of hands-on software engineering experience building complex production systems.

  • Strong experience in embedded software development, including low-level debugging, performance analysis, and system integration.

  • Significant experience with Android and/or RTOS-based systems in production environments.

  • Strong proficiency in C++ and/or C in complex software systems.

  • Proven track record of driving technical outcomes across multiple teams or domains through influence, ownership, and execution.

  • Demonstrated ability to operate effectively in a senior technical leadership capacity, working directly with directors, senior managers, architects, and cross-functional leaders.

  • Strong software engineering fundamentals in system design, architecture, concurrency, debugging, performance, and maintainability.

  • Experience working in large-scale, cross-site, cross-functional software organizations.

What Can Give You a Competitive Edge (Preferred Qualifications)

  • Experience in automotive, camera systems, computer vision pipelines, or safety-relevant embedded platforms.

  • Strong background in multi-domain systems that combine platform software, application logic, hardware-aware constraints, and vehicle integration.

  • Experience with software running on resource-constrained or real-time environments.

  • Familiarity with Android platform internals, middleware, BSP/system bring-up, or similar platform-level work.

  • Experience improving engineering effectiveness across organizations through better architecture, technical decision-making, tooling, development workflows, or integration practices.

  • M.Sc. or other advanced technical degree.

Why this role matters

This role is central to how we scale technical excellence in a growing and increasingly complex organization. It is an opportunity to shape both product and engineering direction, work on real systems that ship to vehicles, and have broad impact across critical camera and embedded software domains.

This is the right role for someone who wants to stay deeply hands-on, operate at high scope, and lead through expertise, judgment, and execution.
