This means the successful candidate is expected to report to Milford, MI three times (Tues., Wed., Thurs.) a week, at minimum., We are seeking an early-career Software Developer to join the Virtualization and Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) Integration team within the Software Defined Vehicle - Embedded Platforms organization. In this role, you will help design, build, and deploy Virtual Test Environments (CoSimulation Environments) at system and vehicle level to support development, verification, and validation of embedded controllers and calibrations across domains such as: * Propulsion thermal management * Battery management * Chassis and brake controls * Body electronics and controls (vehicle access, occupant comfort and protection, lighting, visibility, vehicle state) This is a hands-on role ideal for students or entry level candidates with strong software fundamentals, internship/project experience, and an interest in simulation, modeling, and automotive embedded systems. You will work closely with experienced engineers who will provide mentorship and technical guidance as you grow. What You'll Do: As an early-career Software Developer - Virtualization and SIL Integration, you will: * Contribute to the development and integration of co-simulation components to satisfy end-user test requirements. * Help create and maintain virtual controller models to be used across different simulations. * Implement and test virtual controller components such as HWIO, RTOS, and communication models. * Assist in obtaining, developing, and parameterizing sub-system models (sensors, actuators, ECU behavioral models). * Collaborate with development engineers to understand new feature requirements, address issues, and ensure proper implementation in the virtual environment. * Work with System Engineers to help define SIMBOMs (required co-simulation assets) based on test requirements. * Support the integration of plant models and ECU models into dynamic virtual simulations. * Contribute to documentation for each release, including model interfaces, assumptions, and usage guidelines. * Provide first-line support for released simulations (basic troubleshooting, issue triage, and user guidance). * Participate in continuous improvement of tools, scripts, and workflows, including opportunities to leverage Python, SQL, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud technologies. You will be part of an agile, cross-functional team that includes global partners and internal customers developing the next generation of virtual test capabilities., * Opportunity to work on cutting-edge virtual test environments central to GM's Software Defined Vehicle strategy. * Direct impact on the quality and efficiency of embedded software development and validation across multiple vehicle domains. * A supportive environment with mentorship from senior engineers, exposure to cross-functional teams, and clear development pathways. * Hybrid work arrangement balancing collaboration and focused development time. Join us and help shape the future of virtual development at General Motors as we work toward our ZERO ZERO ZERO vision., This role is categorized as hybrid. This means the selected candidate is expected to report to a specific location at least 3 times a week {or other frequency dictated by their manager}.The selected candidate will be required to travel <25% for this role. About GM Our vision is a world with Zero Crashes, Zero Emissions and Zero Congestion and we embrace the responsibility to lead the change that will make our world better, safer and more equitable for all. ## Related Videos - [Leveraging Large Language Models for Legacy Code Translation: Challenges and Solutions](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1157-leveraging-large-language-models-for-legacy-code-translation-challenges-and-solutions) - [Improving quality with Agentic AI with Rovo Dev and Xray](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2005-improving-quality-with-agentic-ai-with-rovo-dev-and-xray) - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [Car's are Technology on Wheels - Impact of Software and IT Competence in Automotive](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/780-car-s-are-technology-on-wheels-impact-of-software-and-it-competence-in-automotive) - [Building a hypercar from scratch](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/607-building-a-hypercar-from-scratch) - [Software stack under and over the hood of the fastest accelerating car in the world](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/221-software-stack-under-and-over-the-hood-of-the-fastest-accelerating-car-in-the-world) ## Related Articles - [How software is steering vehicle technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/515-how-software-is-steering-vehicle-technology) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Where to Find Entry-Level Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/397-where-to-find-entry-level-software-engineering-jobs) - [Is Software Engineering Hard?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/448-is-software-engineering-hard) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers)
