Software Engineer - Transmission Control

At General Motors, we are developing the embedded software and control systems that enable advanced vehicle performance, drivability, and system integration.

We are looking for a Transmission Control Software Engineer to support the development of control software for a new transmission for Performance Cars.

In this role, you will design, implement, and integrate embedded software that manages transmission operation across a broad range of vehicle operating conditions.

You will work closely with software, systems, calibration, and platform teams to deliver high-quality controls solutions that are technically sound, maintainable, and consistent with GM software development standards and processes.

This is an individual contributor role for an engineer who can apply strong software and controls fundamentals, exercise independent judgment on moderate-scope technical problems, and contribute effectively within a cross-functional development team.

Develop and refine embedded software control functions for transmission operation, shift execution, torque management, diagnostics, and feature performance.

Translate system and algorithm requirements into software functional requirements, design content, implementation tasks, and verification activities.

Design, implement, and maintain software using C, MATLAB, Simulink, or comparable embedded controls toolchains.

Participate in software design, coding, peer reviews, and change-management activities in accordance with GM software development processes and coding standards.

Integrate transmission control software with vehicle-level and propulsion-system functions to support coordinated behavior and robust system performance.

Create and execute software verification activities, including unit, software-in-the-loop, hardware-in-the-loop, bench, and integration testing as appropriate.

Analyze software and controls issues, identify root causes, and implement corrective actions through development and software verification activities.

Collaborate with calibration, systems, integration, and architecture teams to resolve technical issues and deliver assigned features.
