documents, design guidelines, and interface specifications.Cross-Functional Collaboration* Collaborate with Product Management and Systems Engineering to understand use cases, feature roadmaps, and vehicle integration constraints, and reflect them in GNSS hardware requirements.* Partner with Vehicle Integration and Validation teams to align GNSS performance metrics and test plans with vehicle-level targets.* Lead and participate in design and technical reviews focused on GNSS architecture, hardware design, and validation strategy.Supplier & Roadmap LeadershipWork with GNSS chipset/module and RF component suppliers to:* Evaluate and select GNSS solutions (chipsets, modules, LNAs, filters, antenna components).* Influence supplier technology roadmaps to align with our long-term product strategy.Collaborate with Purchasing to**:*** Evaluate and score technical proposals and RFQs.* Provide clear technical recommendations balancing performance, cost, risk, and scalability.* Review and assess supplier test procedures and results for GNSS performance and compliance with internal standards.Hardware Design & RF IntegrationWork closely with Hardware Design and RF Engineering teams to:* Develop schematics for GNSS signal chains, including RF front-end, matching networks, filtering, and protection circuitry.* Review and approve PCB layouts for GNSS sections, focusing on RF best practices, grounding, isolation, controlled impedance, and coexistence with cellular, Wi‐Fi/Bluetooth, and UWB.* Provide guidance on GNSS antenna interface requirements, including active/passive antennas, feed architecture, and placement constraints.* Support design reviews, root-cause analysis, and issue resolution related to GNSS performance, EMC/EMI, and interference/coexistence.Lab & Conducted TestingDefine and execute conducted RF test plans for GNSS, including:* Sensitivity and dynamic range.* C/N0, phase noise, and insertion loss characterization.* Jamming and interference susceptibility, including coexistence with other in‐vehicle radios.* Develop test setups, fixtures, and automation for GNSS conducted characterization using spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, GNSS simulators/recorders, and RF switch matrices.* Analyze test data and provide clear, actionable design feedback to internal teams and suppliers.Vehicle-Level GNSS Performance & Test CasesDefine end-to-end vehicle-level GNSS performance requirements and KPIs, including:* Position accuracy, availability, continuity, and integrity across driving scenarios.* TTFF (cold/warm/hot start) and reacquisition.* Performance in challenging environments (urban canyon, tunnels, foliage, multipath, RF interference).Develop vehicle-level GNSS test cases and procedures, including:* Drive routes, scenario definitions, and logging requirements.* Test methods using GNSS record/playback, reference receivers, and post-processing tools.* Support execution and analysis of vehicle-level tests, working with validation and field test teams to identify root causes and corrective actions for performance issues.**Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications):*** Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.* 10+ years of experience in GNSS and/or RF hardware design, system integration, or validation.* Strong understanding of GNSS systems and standards, including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS, and SBAS.* Proven experience translating system-level performance requirements into detailed hardware, design, and test specifications.* Hands-on experience with RF test equipment (spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, signal generators, GNSS simulators/recorders, power meters, etc.)* Demonstrated experience with schematic design and PCB layout review for RF/GNSS circuits.* Working knowledge of RF theory (link budgets, noise figure, gain, linearity, filters, matching networks) and its application to GNSS front-end design.* Experience collaborating with suppliers and purchasing on technical evaluations, design reviews, and roadmap alignment.**People Skills:*** Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to deep dive complex technical issues and drive them to closure.* Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills, including the ability to present technical topics to both engineering and non-technical audiences.**What Will Give You A Competitive Edge (Preferred Qualifications):*** Master’s degree in Electrical/Electronics/Computer Engineering or related discipline.* Experience with automotive GNSS applications, including vehicle-level integration and validation.* Familiarity with coexistence between GNSS and other wireless systems (cellular, Wi‐Fi, Bluetooth, UWB) and corresponding mitigation techniques.* Knowledge of automotive EMC/EMI and regulatory standards relevant to GNSS and RF systems.* Experience with RF and EM simulation tools (e.g., HFSS, CST, ADS) and system modeling (e.g., MATLAB).* Background in GNSS antenna design or integration, including active antenna systems and multi-band configurations.* Experience with test automation and data analysis (e.g., Python, MATLAB, or similar tools).**Compensation:**The compensation information is a good faith estimate only. It is based on what a successful applicant might be paid in accordance with applicable state laws. ***The compensation may not be representative for positions located outside of New York, Colorado, California, or Washington.***The expected base compensation for this role is: $160,000 - $245,000. Actual base compensation within the identified range will vary based on factors relevant to the position.**Bonus Potential:** An incentive pay program offers payouts based on company performance, job level, and individual performance.**Benefits**: GM offers a variety of health and wellbeing benefit programs. Benefit options include medical, dental, vision, Health Savings Account, Flexible Spending Accounts, retirement savings plan, sickness and accident benefits, life insurance, paid vacation & holidays, tuition assistance programs, employee assistance program, GM vehicle discounts and more.**Company Vehicle**:Upon successful completion of a motor vehicle report review, you will be eligible to participate in a company vehicle evaluation program, through which you will be assigned a General Motors vehicle to drive and evaluate.Note: program participants are required to purchase/lease a qualifying GM vehicle every four years unless one of a limited number of exceptions applies.#LI-DH2This 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}.This job may be eligible for relocation benefits.
