Sponsorship: GM DOES NOT PROVIDE IMMIGRATION-RELATED SPONSORSHIP FOR THIS ROLE IF YOU WILL NEED IMMIGRATION SPONSORSHIP (e.g., H-1B, TN, STEM OPT, etc.) NOW OR IN THE FUTURE.

Work Arrangement:

Hybrid: The position does not require an employee to be onsite full-time to perform most effectively. The employee's role enables them to work at a GM facility, or off-site as frequently as needed or desired.

The Role:

General Motors is transforming the future of mobility – and the Canadian Technical Centre (CTC) is at the forefront of that transformation. We are a diverse team of agile and innovative thought leaders who are passionate about developing key technologies and products that will help achieve GM’s vision of a world with Zero Crashes, Zero Emissions and Zero Congestion. ​

CTC has a proven track record of taking technologies from concept to production in both automotive and non-automotive areas. Our success is propelled by our talented people and our deep technical knowledge in domains like infotainment software, diagnostics, data analytics, AI, mechatronic controls, and cold weather development. ​If you want to work with an inclusive and collaborative team that’s striving to change the world for the better, we invite you to join us.

You will be responsible for the development and execution of hardware and software testing related controls and diagnostic requirements. These requirements are to meet regulatory and industry best practices in the field of Chassis, Brake, Suspension, and Steering Systems for variety of Electrified and Autonomous vehicles within General Motors’ portfolio!

The Software Quality Assurance Co-Op will be involved with a combination of requirements development, in-vehicle, and laboratory testing on both Hardware-in-the-Loop and Software-in-the-Loop platforms, and data analysis along with related performance verification to ensure robust execution of diagnostic and controls features! Other areas of involvement may include, the development of Python based automated test scripts, MATLAB Simulink models, and CarSim Plant models.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Identify and resolve software problems; contribute to the team knowledge base on common software errors, corner case situations, and other learnings can be retained and shared

  • Interact with various in-house software version control systems (repository databases) and coordinate database retention efforts between controls, software, and testing teams 

  • Develop and Define testing strategies (Different testing levels, manual and automation) to ensure first time quality 

  • Understand functional, safety, and compliance requirements to implement appropriate test plans and setups

  • Develop test cases, automation methods, and write and execute comprehensive test plans to assess software products at different system levels, identify software anomalies, missed requirements, and performance issues early in the development processes

  • Frequently collaborate with controls, diagnostic, and software cross-functional teams also other partners to define effective acceptance criteria  

  • Conduct HIL and SIL, or vehicle level software verification work

  • As an agile team member, take on other tasks as part of the software change management process as per the Scaled Agile Framework 

  • Travel as required
