About The Role

General Motors of Canada Company is seeking a Senior Software Developer – Brake Controls and Diagnostics to join the team and lead the next generation of software-defined vehicle braking systems. This role offers the opportunity to take a senior position on a new Brake by Wire project while spearheading GM's in-house brake controls and diagnostics software capability and driving the transition toward next-generation software-defined vehicle (SDV) architecture, including brake controls feature migration into future Vehicle Motion Coordination and Control (VMCC)-aligned architectures.

Brake Controls is playing a key role in GM's transition to software-defined vehicles through architecture readiness, feature migration into future control frameworks, and a strategic shift toward in-house software capability. In this senior role, you will lead the development of safety-critical brake control software for core vehicle features and platform capabilities while directly shaping the software foundation for next-generation braking systems. You will serve as a technical authority in a highly collaborative environment, working across systems, controls, calibration, integration, and validation teams to deliver robust, scalable, and reusable software solutions that are central to vehicle safety, performance, and customer experience.

What You'll Do

  • Lead the design, development, and maintenance of embedded software for brake controls and diagnostics applications supporting GM vehicle programs and future SDV platforms.
  • Define and own software architecture and implementation strategies that enable scalable, reusable, and maintainable brake controls software across vehicle applications.
  • Serve as a technical lead and mentor for junior and intermediate developers, providing guidance on software design decisions, code reviews, and engineering best practices.
  • Collaborate with and influence cross-functional teams to align brake controls software with evolving systems decomposition, VMCC architecture direction, and SDV milestone commitments.
  • Lead coordination efforts with internal and external team members to ensure feature deliverables remain on track and are achieved as planned.
  • Drive software integration, issue resolution, and validation activities to ensure high-quality launch execution and reliable customer-facing performance.
  • Champion BDD principles and CI/CD pipelines to deploy software assets while ensuring adherence to GM software quality requirements at each evaluation step.
  • Establish and enforce disciplined software development practices for safety-critical applications, including requirements traceability, robust design, and quality-focused implementation.
  • Contribute to roadmap planning, risk identification, and technical trade-off decisions in alignment with program and platform objectives.

Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications)

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • Minimum 6 years of experience in embedded software or controls system development for real-time or safety-critical applications.
  • Demonstrated experience leading software architecture definition and technical decision-making for complex embedded systems.
  • Proven ability to mentor and guide engineers, conduct code reviews, and champion engineering excellence within a team.
  • Experience in controls system integration and in software and hardware testing.
  • In-depth knowledge of vehicle electrical systems and serial data communication architectures.
  • Extensive experience developing and validating system, software, and hardware requirements.
  • Strong programming skills in C and/or C++, with a track record of production-quality deliverables.
  • Experience in virtualization or software integration.
  • Experience with Behavior Driven Development (BDD) and familiarity with Gherkin.
  • Solid understanding of AUTOSAR, diagnostics, and embedded software integration in production ECUs.
  • Strong knowledge of automotive software architectures, vehicle networks, and system integration.
  • Experience with model-based development tools such as MATLAB/Simulink and Embedded Coder.
  • Ability to lead effectively across software, controls, systems, calibration, and validation disciplines.
  • Exceptional problem-solving skills, a strong ownership mindset, and the ability to drive results in a fast-paced product development environment.

What Will Give You a Competitive Edge (Preferred Qualifications)

  • Master's degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • Experience in automotive brake systems, chassis controls, active safety, or related domains.
  • Experience with ETAS/INCA, Intrepid/Vehicle Spy, or similar DAQ tools.
  • Knowledge of OBD-II diagnostics.
  • Deep familiarity with Automotive Safety Integrity Levels (ASIL) and ISO 26262 functional safety processes.
  • Hands-on experience with functional safety, fault-tolerant design, or redundant control strategies for braking applications.
  • Experience contributing to or leading cross-program or platform-level software reuse and standardization efforts.

Compensation: 
The salary range for this role is $115,000 to $164,600. The actual base salary a successful candidate will be offered within this range will vary based on factors relevant to the position.
