The Role

The Senior Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) Systems Integration Engineer will lead system definition and integration from concept through launch. This is a highly visible role for an engineer who enjoys connecting complex technical work across functions, shaping system architecture, and ensuring integrated products are ready for real-world applications.

In this position, you will own system requirements and key interfaces, drive cross-functional alignment, and help translate product needs into robust, launch-ready solutions. You will play a key role in ensuring products deliver against performance, cost, safety, reliability, manufacturability, and timing targets while helping build the foundation for GM’s growing battery energy storage portfolio.

What You’ll Do

• Own system requirements and interface definition from concept through launch to ensure the product performs as intended in the customer application.

• Define and maintain key product interfaces across mechanical, thermal, fluid, electrical, and communication systems.

• Evaluate product performance against requirements using analysis, modeling, and development testing.

• Drive technical tradeoff studies and engineering decisions across subsystems, including cells, modules, structures, thermal management, sensing, bussing, electronics, controls, and power conversion interfaces.

• Work closely with cross-functional partners across systems, manufacturing, validation, supply chain, quality, controls, power electronics, and program management to deliver launch-ready products.

• Understand applicable codes, standards, regulations, and certification requirements, and ensure requirements and designs align accordingly.

• Guide designs through development gates with strong technical rigor and clear evidence that requirements have been achieved.

• Identify system-level technical risks early, develop mitigation plans, and lead issue resolution to keep programs on track.

• Benchmark BESS products and relevant adjacent industries to identify opportunities in architecture, technology, and development approach.

• Help define and improve BESS engineering processes, tools, standards, and templates to support future program growth.

• Contribute as a technical leader on an evolving team where speed, sound judgment, and hands-on problem-solving matter.
