À propos
Company: GM Performance Power Units (GM PPU)
We’re on the hunt for a forward-thinking Embedded Controls Software Engineer to join our ERS (Energy Recovery System) Team in Concord, NC. In this high‑stakes, high‑impact role, you’ll develop and optimize robust embedded software for our Formula 1 hybrid powertrain, including the MGU (e‑motor), CU‑K (inverter and DC‑DC), and ES (battery). Implement cutting‑edge real‑time control, sensor interfacing, communication protocols, and system diagnostics, supporting the overall ERS hardware and software ecosystem.
Key Responsibilities
Develop, test, and maintain embedded software in C, C++, and relevant real‑time programming languages for ERS control units.
Utilize MATLAB/Simulink for model‑based design, simulation, and development of real‑time embedded code.
Implement sensor data acquisition, hardware abstraction layers, real‑time communication and diagnostics features.
Collaborate with cross‑functional teams in controls, power electronics, and hardware integration to ensure cohesive system operation.
Conduct software debugging, verification, and validation, including model‑in‑the‑loop (MiL), software‑in‑the‑loop (SiL), hardware‑in‑the‑loop (HiL), and trackside testing support.
Adhere to software quality, safety, and regulatory standards for high‑performance motorsport applications.
Maintain technical documentation and contribute to continuous improvement processes in embedded software development.
Qualifications
Master’s or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Embedded Systems, or related discipline; OR
Bachelor’s degree with 5+ years of experience in embedded software development, preferably in automotive or motorsport sectors.
Strong proficiency in embedded C programming, with solid knowledge of embedded real‑time operating systems.
Experience using MATLAB/Simulink for embedded code generation and simulation.
Experience in communication protocols such as CAN, CAN FD, Ethernet, SPI, I²C, UART, and FlexRay.
Familiarity with software development tools, debugging environments, and version control systems.
Understanding of control theory (digital control loop and compensation methods) for power electronic systems.
Familiarity with coding needs for various DC/DC topologies, e‑motor PWM modulation, and feedback systems for stable and efficient power conversion.
Knowledge of embedded hardware interfaces, sensors, and microcontroller architectures.
Understanding of functional safety standards (ISO 26262) and FIA F1 technical regulations is advantageous.
Desirable Skills
Experience with C++ in embedded contexts.
Familiarity with FPGA and DSP programming tools.
Knowledge of scripting languages (Python, MATLAB) for testing and automation.
Prior experience with hardware‑in‑the‑loop (HiL) testing and software validation frameworks.
Experience in Functional Mock‑up Unit (FMU) development and co‑simulation techniques.
Familiarity with TAG‑700 ECU.
Personal Attributes
Strong problem‑solving skills and attention to detail.
Excellent teamwork, communication, and collaboration capabilities.
Proactive attitude toward continuous learning and innovation in embedded systems development.
