Description

The Role:

As a senior engineer, you will help design, build, and safeguard the quality of applications across the GM's Product Validation, Safety & Quality IT (PVSQ) organization, which spans regulatory compliance, safety systems, and quality engineering used across vehicle programs. Depending on your strengths, you may lean toward building end-to-end features across the stack (Quarkus or Spring Boot services, a Next.js/React portal, a relational database, and a Databricks lakehouse) or toward the test automation and quality engineering that keep those systems reliable.

You will have the opportunity to work hands-on writing software or solutions, based on detailed requirements and system specifications. Using sound, repeatable, industry standard methodologies, you will support the PVSQ organization responsible for developing Nextgen applications. As part of development activities, we will update existing software and/or develop new software solutions to target specific business obstacles. A repeatable, systematic, and quantifiable approach to the development process will also be applied along with the use of appropriate methodologies.

As a coach/mentor, you will provide feedback on the software being developed to software developers. Ensure code alignment with design patterns/frameworks by working closely with architects and data scientists.

What You'll Do:

  • Design and maintain back-end microservices in  Java (Quarkus  or Spring Boot ) , exposing both  REST and GraphQL  APIs with well-defined, versioned contracts and shared DTOs.

  • Build responsive front-end features in the  Next.js / React  portal using  TypeScript  and  Apollo  for GraphQL data access.

  • Develop and support  Databricks  data workflows (Unity Catalog, Delta tables, and the medallion pattern) that feed regulatory reporting and dashboards.

  • Evolve the transactional relational schema (PostgreSQL or Oracle) safely, writing versioned  Liquibase  changesets that ship through the same pipeline as application code.

  • Produce clean, well-documented, testable code that aligns with the team's design patterns, frameworks, and standards.

  • Conduct thorough code reviews and write  unit, integration, and end-to-end tests  (TestNG, Selenium, cross-browser via BrowserStack) that gate every release.

  • Diagnose and resolve issues across services, the portal, and data pipelines, using observability tooling (Datadog / App Insights).

  • Work within the CI/CD pipeline (GitHub Actions, security scanning, promotion dev → test → prod) and help keep main releasable at all times.

  • Translate business and regulatory requirements into executable development work: break them down, shape the technical approach, and drive it through to delivery in partnership with stakeholders and BAs.

  • Lead and drive software design for scalability and reusability across the full stack, from the UI down to the database structure.

What You'll Need:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.

  • 7+ years building and shipping production software , with strong recent depth in  Java / JVM  (Quarkus or Spring Boot).

  • Demonstrated  full-stack  capability: comfortable owning a feature from a  Next.js / React / TypeScript  front end through a Java service to the data layer, not backend-only.

  • Proven ability to take a business requirement all the way to running software: owning the end-to-end design (UI through service to database structure) with scalability and reusability in mind, rather than only implementing predefined tickets.

  • Hands-on experience designing and operating  RESTful and GraphQL APIs , including contract/versioning discipline and API security best practices.

  • Solid experience with a  relational database (PostgreSQL  or Oracle )  behind transactional services, using an ORM ( Hibernate / JPA , ideally Quarkus  Panache ), and managing schema changes with a migration tool ( Liquibase ).

  • Working knowledge of  data-lakehouse platforms  for the analytical/reporting side ( Databricks / Delta / Unity Catalog  strongly preferred); ability to reason about data models, lineage, and access control.

  • Experience deploying and running services on  Azure : containers ( Docker ),  Kubernetes (AKS) , and container registries.

  • Fluency with  Git and GitHub-based CI/CD  (GitHub Actions or equivalent): automated build, test, security scanning, and promotion pipelines.

  • Working knowledge of  Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)  for provisioning and configuration.

  • Comfort defining and upholding technical/operational metadata standards, data-movement patterns, and ETL/ELT best practices.

  • Comprehensive understanding of the SDLC and experience in  Agile / Scrum  environments.

People Skills

  • Proven ability to lead development initiatives and drive design decisions, planning and executing deliverables within a collaborative team.

  • Independent, self-driven, and quick to learn, with strong, thorough problem-solving.

  • Highly organized and effective at managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced setting.

  • Exceptional written and verbal communication; able to translate regulatory and stakeholder requirements into actionable technical work and engage clearly with diverse audiences.

What Will Give You a Competitive Edge

  • Experience with  Apache Spark  and large-scale data processing on Databricks (DBX job orchestration).

  • Familiarity with  change-data-capture  patterns and tooling (e.g., HVR) feeding a medallion lakehouse.

  • Experience with  GHAS  (code/secret/dependency scanning),  Wiz  (container scanning), Dependabot, and secure-SDLC practices.

  • Experience with  feature-flagged, trunk-based delivery  and one-button/continuous release models.

  • Familiarity with  AI-assisted development  workflows (e.g., Copilot, Cursor) and grounding agents with repo context (AGENTS.md / cross-service dependency maps).

  • Background in  regulated or compliance-driven domains  where auditability and reporting deadlines are first-class concerns.

  • Experience with observability platforms ( Datadog , Azure Application Insights).
