Job description

Hybrid: This means the successful candidate is expected to report to their primary location (Warren, MI) three times per week, at minimum.

The Role:

At General Motors, we are committed to creating a world with zero crashes, zero emissions, and zero congestion. Our ADAS Compute hardware team is at the forefront of developing cutting-edge technologies like Super Cruise Hands-Free Automated Driving that enhance vehicle safety, performance, and autonomy.

As we move to in-sourcing hardware design we are building a hardware engineering team that will own the end-to-end design and development of our ADAS Compute hardware.

In this role, the Hardware Design Engineer – ADAS Compute be responsible for the technical design & development of the new ADAS Compute hardware platform for GM’s next generation vehicles. The role requires an experienced professional with a background in automotive ECU architecture, design, and analysis, and a proven ability of successfully launching ADAS Compute hardware into production.

What You’ll do:

• Design of ADAS Compute electrical hardware: from SoC/key component selection, schematic capture, worst case analysis, PCB layout, bring-up, debug, signal integrity and power integrity (SI/PI), design verification test (environmental and EMC), to manufacturing support and production launch
• Design and development of the ADAS Compute hardware platform (from concept design to launch) while meeting cost, timing, quality, and safety targets
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, such as software, mechanical, and manufacturing, to ensure seamless integration of the electrical design of the ADAS Compute hardware
• Work closely with contract manufacturing partners to ensure successful product build, from prototype through to mass production, while maintaining quality, cost, and timing targets
• Electrical schematic design and PCB layout
• Support new IC design/development strategic to new ADAS Compute designs and architectures
• Perform/support detailed hardware analysis – worst case analysis, signal integrity, power integrity, etc.
• Execute bring-up of hardware design from power supplies, SoCs, MCUs, SerDes interfaces, network devices, etc.
• Lead design for manufacturing (DFM), design for assembly (DFA), and design for testing (DFT)
• Drive the validation and testing of hardware components and systems, ensuring high levels of reliability and performance
• Establish test plans and protocols to validate designs against requirements.
• Troubleshoot hardware issues, perform root cause analysis, and develop solutions to resolve design problems
• Support manufacturing partners in troubleshooting and resolving any production-related issues that arise during the manufacturing process
• Conduct design reviews and provide constructive feedback to ensure optimal solutions
• Lead/support DFMEA/PFMEA of ADAS Compute; ensure lessons learned and best practices are included
• Provide guidance and consultation to Design Release Engineers (DREs)
