Job Description

Remote or Hybrid: This role can be remote US or hybrid in our Warren MI or Austin TX office. The Role: This Staff Software Engineer – Developer Experience role sits within the Developer Experience (DevEx) team at the intersection of DevEx, data, and business strategy. The team provides tools, platforms, metrics, and enablement programs that reduce friction for engineers, streamline software delivery workflows, and improve developer satisfaction and productivity across General Motors. In this role, you will focus on Developer Productivity & Insights —defining how we measure and understand engineering effectiveness, partnering with platform and product teams to synthesize signals across SDLC systems, and translating those insights into clear narratives and recommendations for senior engineering leadership up to the CISO office. Rather than owning a single platform, you will drive change through influence: shaping our metrics strategy, defining and evolving golden paths, evaluating how AI is transforming developer workflows, and turning data into better tools, workflows, and outcomes for engineers. The DevEx team exists to make life dramatically better for software engineers at GM. As a Staff Software Engineer, you’ll help lead the shift from a traditional IT model to an AI-native engineering organization —designing and building automation, golden paths, and AI-driven solutions that remove friction from developer workflows while mentoring and upskilling engineers across IT.

Job Responsibility

  • Lead technical strategy and delivery for platforms, tools, and workflows that improve developer productivity, quality, and satisfaction across GM
  • Design and implement golden paths (opinionated, paved-road workflows) for shipping software—covering repo structure, CI/CD, testing, security, observability, and deployment
  • Build automation and self-service capabilities that reduce manual toil (e.g., environment provisioning, pipeline setup, guardrail enforcement, standards checks)
  • Embed AI into engineering workflows, including agents and copilots that assist with planning, coding, testing, documentation, and operations
  • Partner with product, security, infra, and application teams to understand pain points and translate them into concrete platform and tooling improvements
  • Act as a multiplier and mentor across the organization, coaching engineers and providing guidance on software engineering, AI-assisted development, and recommended practices
  • Define and track outcome-focused metrics (e.g., lead time for changes, PR cycle time, change failure rate, developer satisfaction) and use data to guide investments
  • Contribute to and influence engineering standards, patterns, and reference architectures used across Core IT and beyond

Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience in software development
  • Strong proficiency in at least one modern language (e.g., Java, Go, C#, Python, TypeScript) and in designing, building, and operating distributed systems in production
  • Deep experience designing and operating modern CI/CD pipelines and release processes, including build, test, deploy, release strategies, rollback, and environment promotion
  • Hands-on experience with developer platforms and SDLC tooling (e.g., GitHub/GitLab, CI/CD systems, Jira/ADO, artifact repositories, secrets management, feature flags)
  • Solid understanding of at least one major cloud platform (Azure/AWS/GCP) and infrastructure as code (Terraform, Bicep, CloudFormation, etc.)
  • Strong understanding of security, compliance, and governance concerns for developer platforms (RBAC, auditability, data boundaries)
  • Experience with migration and modernization (on-prem → cloud, legacy → modern pipelines, tool consolidation)

Nice to have

  • Experience in platform engineering, SRE, or internal developer platforms
  • Background in large, regulated, or safety-critical environments where security, compliance, and reliability are first-class concerns
  • Prior work in Developer Experience / Developer Productivity / DevTools organizations
