What Will Give You a Competitive Edge: + Experiencetesting andevaluating robotics systems or autonomous vehicles, including working on simulation frameworks. + Experience working on test strategies and validation for safety-critical products. + A strong, data-driven curiosity to investigate anomalies and systematically root-cause discrepancies. + Familiarity with SQL, time-series data analysis, performance monitoringtoolsand dashboarding systems (e.g., Looker,Streamlit). ## Description General Motors is a global leader in advanced driver assistance. With Super Cruise hands-free technology in more than 500,000 Super Cruise-equipped vehicles on the road, and over 700 million hands-free miles driven, GM is proving that automation can be trusted, intuitive, and helpful. GM has the global reach to bring cutting-edge advances to everyday drivers at an unprecedented scale. Join us to help deliver the next generation of safe and delightful personal autonomous vehicle experiences. About the Organization: The Simulation team, part of the Autonomous Vehicle organization, is responsible for developing and advancing the simulation ecosystem that enables the growth and maturity of GM's autonomous driving technology. We develop scalable tools, workflows, and analysis capabilities that enable data-driven decisions across AV development, testing, and validation. Partnering with Autonomy, Systems, Safety, and other cross-functional teams, we provide the simulation foundation needed to assess system behavior, improve development velocity, and support end-to-end AV quality. We own large-scale scenario libraries, test and evaluation pipelines, and core infrastructure that support virtual testing, data analysis, model development, and validation within a unified framework. By joining this team, you will help shape GM's core simulation platforms, turn complex system behavior into actionable insights, and accelerate the development of safe, scalable autonomous vehicles. What** **You'll** **Do: + Design, build, andmaintainlarge-scaletest infrastructureandevaluation pipelinesthat enable and quantifythe accuracy, reliability, and efficiency of simulation tests used for autonomous vehicle software validation. + Develop andmaintainGM's core simulation dashboards and reports, delivering clear, actionable, and interpretable insights on test operations, simulationtrustand healthtrendsto engineering teams and leadership. + Drive scalablesimulationquality assessments, standardized processes, and automation to support seamless integration of automated outputs with human-in-the-loop analysis and evaluation. + Collaborate with cross-functional partners across Autonomy, Systems, Safety, and customer teams to define, refine, and drive consensus on simulation validation methodologies and requirements. + Upholdhigh standardsfor code quality and software architecture through code reviews and technical leadership, mentoring other engineers on software engineering and simulation testing best practices. + Leverage AI-assisted development tools and analytics platforms to enhance productivity, improve code quality, and drive innovation in simulation testing., This role can be based remotely but if you live within a 50-mile radius of Sunnyvale or Mountain View you are expected to report to that location three times per week. ## Related Videos - [Are you still programming unit tests or already generating?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/722-are-you-still-programming-unit-tests-or-already-generating) - [How to develop an autonomous car end-to-end: Robotic Drive and the mobility revolution](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/22-how-to-develop-an-autonomous-car-end-to-end-robotic-drive-and-the-mobility-revolution) - [Are Code Reviews Worth It?
