While there will be long days, tough moments, and challenges that push you to grow, you'll find purpose in your work, flexibility to prioritize your family, and the support of a people-first culture. If you're ready to grow, thrive, and make an impact, we'd love to hear from you. **WHY:** The purpose of this role is to accelerate the development and deployment of advanced manufacturing technologies by rapidly designing, building, and implementing innovative electrical solutions. As manufacturing technology evolves, there is a critical need for engineers who can drive progress by developing complex firmware/software, integrating with embedded systems and swiftly prototyping and validating new concepts. This position is essential for bridging gaps between IT, product engineering, manufacturing, and operations-ensuring that cutting-edge manufacturing solutions are tested and supported effectively. **WHAT:** As a Manufacturing Embedded Systems Developer, you will develop, validate, and maintain firmware, software and embedded systems for GM Manufacturing tools and processes. **HOW:** Supporting the plants to make it happen for our customers. _The successful candidate is expected to report to the Warren Tech Center on a full-time basis. This role requires up to 25% domestic and international travel._ What You'll Do (Responsibilities): + Design, develop, maintain, and debug embedded firmware and applications using C and C++. + Build and validate applications that support all stages of manufacturing electrical testing-from fluid-fill stations to full vehicle End-of-Line (EOL) testing. + Contribute to PCB-related work, including documentation and support for interface boards, break-out panels, test hardware, and new manufacturing tools. + Support the full hardware lifecycle: concept design, schematic capture, layout review, DFM considerations, fabrication/assembly coordination, firmware bring-up, and validation. + Diagnose and resolve issues with vehicle ECUs using CAN (ISO15765), UDS (ISO14229), and DoIP (ISO13400) communication protocols. + Collaborate with IT teams to ensure smooth integration between manufacturing applications and GM's IT infrastructure. + Participate in system verification, testing, and validation activities for tools and systems used across Manufacturing Software. + Adapt quickly and support multiple large-scale projects in a fast-moving environment. + Contribute to a forward-thinking, innovative team culture that embraces change and future challenges. + Build strong relationships across software, manufacturing, and program management teams to drive cross-functional innovation., This role is categorized as onsite. This means the selected candidate is expected to report to a specific location on a full-time basis. ## Related Videos - [Building a hypercar from scratch](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/607-building-a-hypercar-from-scratch) - [Innovating Developer Tools with AI: Insights from GitHub Next](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1268-innovating-developer-tools-with-ai-insights-from-github-next) - [An Applied Introduction to eBPF with Go](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1075-an-applied-introduction-to-ebpf-with-go) - [Collaboration Quantified: Lessons from Open Source Developer Networks](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1422-collaboration-quantified-lessons-from-open-source-developer-networks) - [Bringing AI Model Testing and Prompt Management to Your Codebase with GitHub Models](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1536-bringing-ai-model-testing-and-prompt-management-to-your-codebase-with-github-models) - [Turning Container security up to 11 with Capabilities](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/718-turning-container-security-up-to-11-with-capabilities) ## Related Articles - [How software is steering vehicle technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/515-how-software-is-steering-vehicle-technology) - [Now is the time for industrialized software development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/601-now-is-the-time-for-industrialized-software-development) - [Where to Find Entry-Level Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/397-where-to-find-entry-level-software-engineering-jobs) - [7 Important Tips That Every Software Developer Should Know](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/101-7-important-tips-that-every-software-developer-should-know) - [Is Software Engineering Hard?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/448-is-software-engineering-hard) - [Should senior developers refuse interview coding challenges?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/29-should-senior-developers-refuse-interview-coding-challenges)
