Senior System Performance Engineer – GM’s AV System Performance Team As a Senior System Performance Engineer on GM’s AV System Performance Team, you will design, build, and optimize reliable, high‑performance software components within General Motors’ Autonomous Vehicle (AV) software stack. You will develop frameworks and tooling that enable AV engineering teams to meet realtime performance requirements across current and future compute platforms. In this role, you will drive performance‑focused engineering efforts within your product area, contribute to technical direction, and elevate engineering practices through hands‑on implementation and collaboration. You will also play a key role in improving how we monitor, understand, and resolve performance‑critical issues across AV software systems.
Responsibilities
Collaborate with performance leads and partner engineering teams to align on performance requirements, development practices, and improvement opportunities.
Lead performance-focused engineering initiatives with moderate ambiguity and cross-team collaboration.
Contribute to the roadmap for performance tooling, frameworks, and methodologies that support efficient and scalable AV software development.
Evaluate and prototype new tools, techniques, and technologies to improve runtime performance and developer workflows.
Design, implement, and maintain tools and automated systems that support performance analysis, debugging, and continuous monitoring.
Apply and help improve performance engineering standards, processes, and best practices at the team level.
Analyze software behavior, identify performance bottlenecks, and collaborate with product teams to propose and implement optimizations.
Mentor junior engineers on performance profiling, optimization strategies, and engineering best practices.
