Job Description The Team:
The CoSim Infrastructure, Quality, and Scalability team, within GM's Virtualization and SIL Integration organization, builds the foundational software, automation, and integration capabilities that make virtual ECUs and co-simulation environments reliable, reusable, and scalable across vehicle domains. The team develops and evolves CoSim/SIL infrastructure-including SoftECU and FMI-based capabilities, RestBus and SIMETH connectivity, HWIO and calibration enablement, build and CI/CD pipelines, and automated quality gates-while improving package consistency, test coverage, observability, and defect triage. Their work enables engineering, calibration, and verification teams to validate embedded-platform software earlier and with greater confidence, supporting daily regression testing as well as complex, multi-variant, multi-domain virtual validation. Within the broader Virtualization and SIL Integration organization, the team collaborates closely with domain teams to deliver high-fidelity virtual environments and advance GM's software-defined vehicle development process.
The Role:
As a Senior Software Developer , you will build the software that powers GM's virtual development environments, SIL workflows, and AI-enhanced simulation capabilities. You bring strengths in automation, embedded systems, and problem-solving - and this role expands your exposure to cloud, data, ML fundamentals, and large-scale simulation architecture. What You'll Do ( Responsibilities ): Develop backend servicessupporting virtual ECUs,simulationorchestration, and model execution. Build tools for SIL workflowsincluding scenario execution, data capture, and automation. Integrate AI/ML componentsinto simulation orvalidationpipelines. Design APIsfor simulation control, artifact management, and orchestration. Optimizeperformanceforcompute-intensiveworkloads. Collaborate with DevOps and simulation teamsto ensure seamless integration. Contribute to CI/CD workflowsfor simulation and AI components. Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications): Bachelor's degree (or higher) in Engineering, Computer Science, or related field. 7+ years of relevant experiencein software development, simulation, or embedded systems. Strong programming skillsin Python, C++, C#, or Java. Experience with simulation or virtualization(vECUs, FMUs, SIL). Understanding ofcloud servicesand distributed systems. Experience with CLI-based architecturefor tools design. Knowledge ofMCP-based architecture for AI tools design. Experience with databasesforsimulationmetadata and results. What Will Give You a Competitive Edge ( Preferred Qualifications ): Optional AI skills: ML lifecycle basics, Vector search or embeddings, and model integration. Experience with microservicesforsimulationorchestration. Knowledge of Kubernetesfor runningcomputeworkloads. Performance tuningexpertisefor simulation or AI pipelines. Experience with automotive dataand domain modeling. Experiencewithontology-basedengineeringprocessesand architectureframeworks. Advanced knowledge of ontology technologies and ontology design patterns (Owl, RDF, SPARQL, Automated reasoning). #LI-DH2 This role is categorized as hybrid.
