Validate diagnostic performance and robustness across SIL, HIL/ChIL, battery lab, and physical hardware environments to minimize false alarms while protecting safety and hardware.
Manage calibration content through GM’s calibration tools and workflows (change management, reviews, and release processes) to ensure traceable, high‑quality software deliveries.
Generate requests for software and/or controls changes
Create scripts as needed to verify calibration quality and accuracy
Minimum Required Skills and Experience:
Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science or related field.
2+ years of experience in automotive controls, diagnostics, or calibration; EV / high‑voltage battery experience strongly preferred.
Proven expertise with embedded controls and diagnostics for powertrain or EV systems (battery, inverter, charging, or related safety‑critical domains).
Hands‑on experience with calibration and data tools (e.g., ETAS INCA, MDA, Vehicle Spy, MATLAB/Simulink, or similar) and calibration change‑management workflows/tools.
Experience reading and debugging source code in C/C++/Python languages.
Familiarity with automotive communication protocols (CAN, LIN, FlexRay, Ethernet, SPI).
Demonstrated ability to analyze complex data, define calibration strategies, and deliver robust solutions.
Preferred Skills and Experience:
Master’s degree in relevant engineering discipline.
2+ years of experience in electrification controls and diagnostics in areas such as battery management systems, energy transfer, AC/DC charging, high voltage contactor controls, power allocation, and wireless battery communication
Demonstrated impact in process improvement or method development (e.g., new robustness methods, automation scripts, or tools) within a calibration or diagnostics team.
Familiarity with virtual and lab‑based calibration methods (e.g. SIL, HIL/ChIL).
