Lap Time Simulation Engineer

描述

At General Motors, our product teams are redefining mobility. Through a human-centered design process, we create vehicles and experiences that are designed not just to be seen, but to be felt. We’re turning today’s impossible into tomorrow’s standard —from breakthrough hardware and battery systems to intuitive design, intelligent software, and next-generation safety and entertainment features.  

Every day, our products move millions of people as we aim to make driving safer, smarter, and more connected, shaping the future of transportation on a global scale.

The Role

We are looking for a Lap Time Simulation Engineer to design, run, and analyze simulations in support of performance vehicle development. This role is an entry-level role for someone who can apply strong theoretical knowledge, plan and organize their own work within defined processes, and exercise independent judgment with appropriate supervision. The engineer will help build, execute, correlate, and interpret simulation studies that support vehicle content decisions and tradeoff recommendations for future vehicle programs.

What You’ll Do

·         Execute defined lap time simulation studies in support of track performance development and vehicle content decisions.

·         Build, update, and correlate CarSim vehicle simulation models and supporting Simulink-based framework components used in the virtual xIL environment.

·         Work with Vehicle Performance Owners, Lead Development Engineers, and related cross-functional partners to understand study requests, gather inputs, and support Track Product Integration Team analysis.

·         Analyze simulation output, summarize findings, and make clear recommendations to team leaders and customers.

·         Coordinate with adjacent Vehicle Dynamics Center teams, including driver-in-the-loop and hardware-in-the-loop groups, to support integrated virtual assessments.

·         Support requirements development, issue resolution, and continuous improvement of simulation methods, tools, and workflows within the team’s established processes.

Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications)

·         Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, or related engineering fields.

·         Good theoretical knowledge and engineering fundamentals in vehicle dynamics, controls, modeling, simulation, or a closely related discipline.

·         Ability to apply established engineering processes to identify issues, resolve problems, and propose practical solutions.

·         Ability to plan and organize individual work, manage assigned tasks, and deliver high-quality results with appropriate guidance.

·         Strong interpersonal, written, and verbal communication skills, with the ability to build effective working relationships across teams.

·         Valid driver’s license and ability to operate test vehicles.

·         Able and willing to travel as required.

What Will Give You a Competitive Edge (Preferred Qualifications)

·         Experience with CarSim, Matlab/Simulink or similar engineering modeling and simulation tools.

·         Experience with testing, validation, or data acquisition instrumentation.

·         Experience with vehicle dynamics and track performance analysis.

·         Understanding of software development processes, control theory, and major automotive subsystems.

·         Hands-on motorsports, Formula SAE, SCCA, fabrication, or other practical vehicle development experience.

·         Demonstrated curiosity and ability to learn new tools, technologies, and methods quickly.
