설명

Hybrid: This role is categorized as hybrid. This means the successful candidate is expected to report to Concord, NC three times per week, at minimum.

The Role

At GM Motorsports, we are driven by a clear purpose: to accelerate our teams’ ability to win on the racetrack and in the marketplace. Our vision is to be the benchmark of global motorsports excellence, inspiring enduring passion for our brands and products through world-class performance, innovation, and teamwork. We are looking for people who share our mindset and core values — ownership in organizational success, a commitment to add value to our team, and the courage to reject mediocrity in pursuit of exceptional results.

The Motorsports Vehicle Dynamics Software Engineering Manager is responsible for leading GM Motorsports’ vehicle dynamics software engineering strategy, development, and delivery across NASCAR, IndyCar, Formula 1, and SportsCar/LMDh programs. This role oversees the creation and evolution of simulation applications, supporting libraries, data infrastructure, and engineering workflows used to study vehicle behavior, optimize setup decisions, and maximize on-track performance.

As the technical leader for vehicle dynamics software, this individual establishes software architecture, development standards, validation methods, release processes, and cross-functional integration between simulation models, databases, analysis tools, and engineering applications. The Manager leads a multidisciplinary team of software and simulation engineers while driving the development of scalable, maintainable solutions that support offline simulation, lap time prediction, quasi-static analysis, setup development, DiL/HiL environments, and other advanced performance studies.

Working independently to solve highly complex technical challenges, this leader serves as a recognized expert in motorsports vehicle dynamics software, modeling and simulation, and end-user workflow design. The role partners closely with vehicle dynamics, aerodynamics, race engineering, controls, and data systems teams to establish strategic direction, implement best practices, and deliver next-generation simulation capabilities that improve engineering efficiency and competitive race performance across all GM Motorsports platforms.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead the roadmap and delivery of GM motorsports vehicle dynamics software applications, APIs, libraries, post-processing tools, and supporting pipeline architecture.

  • Build, manage, and develop a multidisciplinary software engineering team with clear ownership across race series and shared cross-series capabilities.

  • Define and enforce coding standards, pull request expectations, development processes, and release practices that improve software quality, sustainability, and maintainability.

  • Guide software architecture decisions that reduce redundancy, increase reuse across series, and support a long-term migration toward modern shared ecosystems and toolchains.

  • Own or heavily influence project planning, backlog structure, Jira feature and story organization, and cross-group coordination for work spanning Modeling, Applied Vehicle Dynamics, XiL, Tire, and other partner groups.

  • Develop new simulation, analytical, and workflow capabilities aimed at maximizing on-track performance and improving engineer productivity.

  • Drive integration between simulation applications and related systems so end-user workflows are simple and effective.

  • Oversee validation, beta readiness, defect triage, and rollout quality before software is shipped to internal users or race-team stakeholders.

  • Serve as a senior technical resource for complex vehicle dynamics software questions when standard support paths are insufficient.

Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications)

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.

  • 10+ years of experience in motorsports: engineering software, modeling and simulation, or vehicle dynamics.

  • Demonstrated success developing simulation applications, engineering software platforms, or technical frameworks from concept through deployment.

  • Strong expertise in C#/.NET application development and software architecture, with experience supporting complex engineering workflows.

  • Extensive experience with motorsports simulation toolchains, including Dymola/Modelica-based modeling and simulation environments.

  • Proven track record deploying simulation tools and engineering applications into race team, performance engineering, or competitive motorsports environments.

  • Strong project management, resource planning, stakeholder engagement, and cross-functional leadership capabilities.

  • Ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced, high-performance environment, independently prioritizing work and solving complex technical challenges.

  • Demonstrated commitment to software quality, usability, scalability, and long-term maintainability.

  • Passion for motorsports and a deep understanding of the role simulation and software play in delivering competitive on-track performance.

  • Excellent written, verbal, and presentation communication skills.

What Will Give You a Competitive Edge (Preferred Qualifications)

  • Experience supporting Driver-in-the-Loop (DiL), Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL), lap simulation, quasi-static analysis, or vehicle setup optimization workflows.

  • Direct experience leading and developing high-performing engineering teams, including responsibility for technical direction, staffing, workload balancing, and project delivery

  • Experience with software release management, validation processes, testing frameworks, and production deployment methodologies.

  • Demonstrated responsibility for budget management, workforce planning, and strategic resource allocation.

  • Familiarity with databases, data pipelines, cloud-based engineering infrastructure, and simulation workflow automation.
