Job Description
The AV Launch team builds the software foundation that brings GM’s autonomous driving capabilities to life on the vehicle. We configure, deploy, launch, and monitor the applications that make up the autonomy stack, developing onboard services that orchestrate vehicle activities from startup through shutdown.
We are part of GM’s Autonomous Vehicle Platform Core team, delivering the core software frameworks that enable other teams and major vehicle systems. We own critical platform capabilities that include software deployment, application configuration and lifecycle management, vehicle power and software modes, and observability systems.
Our systems span embedded vehicle platforms, manufacturing lines, developer infrastructure, cloud services, and simulation. We support internal data collection fleets and production vehicles , and partner closely with platform teams and autonomy developers to solve complex problems.
As an early career Software Engineer on the AV Launch team, you will design, implement, test, and operate the services that reliably manage autonomous driving software on GM vehicles. You will work across the software lifecycle: from understanding requirements and defining platform behavior to building production-quality services, integrating with vehicle hardware, validating behavior on benches and vehicles, and diagnosing issues in real-world environments.
This role is designed for a recent graduate or engineer early in their career who wants to build depth in embedded systems, distributed software, vehicle platforms, and autonomous driving technology. You will learn from experienced engineers while contributing meaningful code to systems that must be dependable, observable, and maintainable.
You will develop a systems-level perspective as you learn how individual services, devices, and vehicle states interact. Over time , you will turn that understanding into clear abstractions and design guidance that inform how other developers build vehicle software .
The salary range for this role : is $119,250 to $153,900. The actual base salary a successful candidate will be offered within this range will vary based on factors relevant to the position.
Bonus Potential: An incentive pay program offers payouts based on company performance, job level, and individual performance.
