The Role:


Here at General Motors, we are looking for a hard-working person who enjoys taking on challenges and following through with robust solutions to join our Controls and Software team! Software Design Engineers work closely with controls engineers, systems engineers, and stakeholders across the organization to design, implement, test, and refine embedded control software for our next-generation engine and transmission platforms. The selected candidates will collaborate within and across engineering teams to define, design, implement, and test software to be used in our latest engine and transmission products.  These engineers will work side by side with controls design engineers to create and adapt new methods for our upcoming projects.  These team members will be part of agile scrum teams comprised of both software and controls engineers. The software design engineers have the following specific responsibilities, and are also encouraged to learn and participate in as much of the controls development process as possible.

What You'll Do:

  • Support Behavior Driven Development (BDD) and Test-Driven Development (TDD) through high-quality acceptance criteria and test cases.

  • Drive software quality with a focus on robustness, maintainability, and MISRA compliance.

  • Participate in and help lead algorithm FMEA development to identify and mitigate software-related failure modes. 

  • Contribute to feature breakdown into stories and tasks; ensure understanding of acceptance criteria and Definition of Done for assigned work.

  • Support or assist the Scrum team as required in implementing cohesive, efficient, testable and sustainably maintainable software components.

  • Collaborate closely with the Scrum Manager and Scrum Leader to deliver features on time, raising issues proactively when delivery risks are identified.

  • Mentor and coach engineers on best practices in embedded software development; support onboarding and rotation efforts.

  • Partner with calibration and validation teams to ensure software delivers required performance across all operating conditions.

  • Actively participate in design reviews, retrospectives, and demos; present solutions and improvements to peers and leadership.

  • Champion internal initiatives like refactoring, technical debt reduction, and innovative process improvements.

  • Document Intellectual Property.

  • Participate in scrum and ART ceremonies.

Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications):
