Job Responsibility

Lead development of scalable, modular control and estimation strategies and software architectures for AI/ML-enabled vehicle motion control platforms
Design and implement advanced control algorithms, including state-space control, observers, estimators, optimal or robust control, model predictive control, and learning-enabled control approaches
Integrate AI/ML components such as learned models, estimators, and policies into real-time control loops while maintaining safety, stability, and interpretability
Drive end-to-end development and validation through model-based design, simulation, HIL, SIL, DiL, and in-vehicle testing and calibration
Lead high-value AI/ML applications in motion control and state estimation, including data-driven modeling, prediction, and learning-based estimation workflows
Define and improve data workflows for collection, curation, labeling, feature engineering, and validation using simulation, proving ground, and vehicle data
Contribute to process improvement, peer reviews, technical direction, and mentorship of other engineers
Create innovative technical solutions and help protect GM intellectual property through patents and publications

Requirements

M.S. with 5+ years or Ph.D. with 3+ years of experience in control systems development and/or technical leadership in vehicle controls or related dynamic systems
Deep theoretical and practical knowledge of chassis and vehicle dynamics
Proficiency in classical control methods such as PID, state feedback, and observers
Extensive experience with advanced control strategies, including adaptive control, MPC, learning-based MPC, ML/AI-based control strategies, and other modern control methods
Strong expertise in advanced state estimation, observer design, and sensor fusion for vehicle motion states
Hands-on experience with Kalman filter variants and with system identification and parameter estimation in vehicle dynamics applications
Demonstrated experience using Python for data analysis and applying machine learning or data-driven modeling to control, estimation, or vehicle dynamics problems
Ability to translate control, estimation, and learned components into robust, production-quality embedded software using C/C++, MATLAB/Simulink, and code generation workflows
Experience with vehicle dynamics simulation tools such as CarSim, CarMaker, or equivalent, and with MIL/SIL/HIL/DiL validation workflows
Proficiency with vehicle communication and development tools such as Vehicle SPY, INCA, and CANalyzer
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills for novel and complex challenges
Demonstrated ability to deliver clear technical reports and presentations to cross-functional stakeholders and to collaborate effectively across disciplines and locations
Valid driver’s license
Availability for approximately 4 weeks per year of travel, including winter testing and other validation activities
