Senior Software Engineering - Device Data Capture

What You'll Do (Responsibilities)

• Design, build, and operate backend services (Java/Spring Boot) that power device configuration, campaign management, and data-plane connectivity for millions of vehicles.
• Lead authorization and security hardening across our API surface, and drive the retirement of legacy (v1–v3) endpoints in favor of a consistent, versioned API strategy.
• Own architectural decisions for cross-service communication, event-driven workflows, and observability as the platform expands into new regions.
• Reduce structural tech debt in high-traffic services (dependency upgrades, framework migrations, network/security architecture) without slowing feature delivery.
• Help evolve our engineering workflows by integrating agentic, model-assisted developer tooling (e.g., automated code-review agents, coding assistants wired into our repos via MCP clients) into day-to-day backend development — improving review quality and cutting routine toil.
• Mentor other engineers on service ownership, backend design standards, and operational rigor.

Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications)

• 5+ years building and operating production backend services, ideally in Java/Spring Boot (or comparable JVM/server-side stacks).
• Strong grasp of distributed systems fundamentals: API design and versioning, service-to-service authorization/security, event-driven architecture, and data plane scalability.
• Experience leading technical direction on a multi-service platform — not just writing code, but making and documenting architectural trade-offs.
• Comfort working with modern, agent-assisted engineering tooling (automated review bots, coding assistants, MCP-based integrations) as part of a normal development workflow.
• A track record of shipping tech-debt and security work under real feature-delivery pressure, not just in isolation.
• What Can Give You A Competitive Edge ( Preferred Qualifications):
• Experience with automotive, IoT, or other large-fleet device-management platforms.
• Familiarity with multi-region/OTA delivery systems.
• Prior experience standing up or governing agent-based/automated tooling across a multi-repo organization.

Compensation

• The salary range for this role is $115,000 to $164,600. The actual base salary a successful candidate will be offered within this range will vary based on factors relevant to the position.
• GM DOES NOT PROVIDE IMMIGRATION-RELATED SPONSORSHIP FOR THIS ROLE. DO NOT APPLY FOR THIS ROLE IF YOU WILL NEED GM IMMIGRATION SPONSORSHIP NOW OR IN THE FUTURE.
