Job description

Work Arrangement : This opening has multiple positions and may be remote or hybrid, subject to departmental needs and manager discretion. If hybrid, the successful candidate is expected to report to the office - Markham Elevation Centre (MEC) three times per week, at minimum.

General Motors is undergoing a major transformation, both in how we operate and in how we will influence the future of transportation. As we move towards our ZERO ZERO ZERO vision for the future, we are on the forefront of this work and seeking out driven, innovative individuals who will join our team to help achieve our mission.

The Role

We are currently looking for experienced and motivated candidates for the role of Virtualization and Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) Integration Engineer to support our Test Environment Agile Release Train.

This role is part of a group responsible for creating virtual in-the-loop environments to enable development, verification and validation of embedded controllers and calibrations for hybrid, electrification and body domain including vehicle access, occupant comfort, occupant protection, lighting, visibility, and vehicle modes.

The Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) Simulation Integration Engineers (SIE) are ultimately responsible to deliver a quality simulation environment on time to meet the customers’ requirements. This position requires an individual with a passion for modeling, an adept knowledge of system simulation and integration, and demonstrated capability for managing a wide variety of technical and customer needs.

What You'll Do (Responsibilities)

• Lead the development and integration of cosimulation components to satisfy the end user test requirements.
• Create virtual controller models to be used across different simulations.
• Create, maintain and test virtual controller components such as HWIO, RTOS, communication models, etc.
• Obtain, develop & parameterize sub-system models, such as sensors and actuators, and ECU behavioral models.
• Work with development engineers to understand new feature requirements, address issues, and ensure proper implementation.
• Work with System Engineers to define SIMBOMs (the required cosimulation assets) based on the test requirements.
• Integrate Plant models and other ECU models into a dynamic virtual simulation.
• Create and maintain detailed documents for each release
• Provide support for released simulations and assist with user testing and troubleshooting.
• Provide technical support and guidance to other team members.
• Ensure the cosimulation environments are delivered with quality.
