Job Description

The Role

The Staff Product Cybersecurity Engineer, Secure Product Engineering is a senior individual contributor within the Secure Product Engineering pillar of the broader Product Cybersecurity organization at General Motors. Through close, hands-on partnership with product engineering teams, this engineer helps ensure that software and systems are implemented securely as products move through the build phase of development. As a technical leader without direct reports, this role personally builds the tooling, patterns, and secure-engineering capabilities—and provides the technical guidance and workflows—that allow secure software and systems engineering to scale across GM's product portfolio, spanning embedded vehicle software, mobile experiences, and other key software & services. This is a deep-expertise, execution-focused role. Influence is earned through technical credibility, mentorship, and leading by example rather than through people management.

What You'll Do

• Serve as a hands-on technical leader across secure software and systems engineering, driving outcomes through direct execution and influence rather than direct reports

• Personally design, build, and mature a robust set of secure engineering services and capabilities for GM products

• Establish close, embedded partnerships with product engineering teams to support and directly contribute to secure implementation

• Implement and mature SAST, DAST, fuzzing, runtime security, and OS security hardening of core code bases

• Author technical guidance, reusable patterns, and guardrails, and roll them out across product environments

• Perform in-depth secure code review and partner with adjacent teams to improve tooling and carry security requirements into engineering

• Mentor and uplevel engineers across the pillar, setting a high technical bar through example and pairing

Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications)

• 8+ years of cybersecurity experience with roles in application security, product security, or similar

• Demonstrated technical leadership and influence in relevant security or engineering-focused roles—leading initiatives without formal authority, mentoring engineers, and setting technical direction

• Expertise with application security, secure software engineering, and practical technical guidance

• Experience with SAST, DAST, fuzzing, code review, and secure SDLC workflows across platforms

• Able to read and write software in multiple programming languages to personally build tooling and support the team's execution

• Works closely with engineering teams to materially improve security without unnecessary friction

What Will Give You A Competitive Edge (Preferred Qualifications)

• Prior role(s) in the automotive industry or a similarly complex, deadline-driven, and regulated field

• Published cybersecurity research projects (e.g. conference talks, blog posts, code repositories)

• Familiarity with embedded software/OS security, mobile applications, and backend development

• Have previously built custom security tooling and/or extended functionality in related technologies

What You'll Bring

• A high-ownership, hands-on style with strong product instincts and a pragmatic security mindset

• A commitment to internal customer partnership and technically credible security support

• Deep technical expertise that enables clear guidance, strong mentorship, and opinionated technical planning

• The ability to manage multiple complex priorities with clear milestones and measurable outcomes

• A bias toward scalable improvement that strengthens Secure Product Engineering over time
