Hybrid: This position does not require an employee to be onsite full-time, but the general expectation is that the employee will be onsite a minimum of 3 days each week.
The Team:
The Low Voltage Infrastructure Team within the Embedded Platform Systems & Infrastructure (EPSI) organization is focused on the development of systems and controls centered around on-vehicle low voltage power generation, energy storage, power management, distribution, and consumption control. There is no better time to join this newly formed team as we evolve to the next generation of low voltage power architectures and consumption control strategies in SDV2.0!
As a Staff System Engineer at GM, you are the linchpin in steering the requirements architectural vision and solution context for the Activation Management domain within the Low Voltage Infrastructure organization. Your seasoned expertise and passion for optimizing power consumption are essential to strategize, architect, design and deliver solutions governing the activation and deactivation of software and ECUs in the vehicle. This domain is essential for meeting challenging range/fuel economy targets and preserving low voltage battery charge while the vehicle is off, through ensuring optimum low voltage power consumption.
What You'll Do:
- Develop and drive the requirements architectural vision and ART Solution context for the Activation Management domain connecting desired functionality to software implementation.
- Lead decomposition of feature technical specification, system technical specifications, and portfolio epics to create requirements architecture and implementation plan.
- Define interfaces and ensure seamless integration and interaction between software solutions and hardware components.
- Communicate the functional architectural vision and context to the engineering team. Contribute to refining the priority of work for the engineering teams.
- Collaborate with internal/external teams to build the architectural runway and identify enablers.
- Define the solution context including supported technologies, interfaces, and APIs, current and future deployment requirements, functional and non-functional requirements.
- Flow down requirements to ART features.
- Engage in building system-level requirements and validating system performance against these requirements, ensuring validation strategies are robust, cost-effective, and efficient.
- Collaborate with System Engineers, Product Managers, Subsystem Lead Engineers, Controls Designers and others in the functional architecture development and decomposition to subsystems and SW solutions.
- Guide development of technical specifications, interface requirements, context diagrams, decomposition diagrams, epic decomposition, and technical feasibility analysis.
- Provide technical direction and guidance to agile teams throughout all phases of ART Kanban.
- Collaborate with the Product Management Team to review and update backlog item definitions, develop acceptance criteria and benefit hypotheses, determine technical feasibility and scope estimates.
- Provide technical guidance for system design and integration, supporting sales presentations, technical solutions discussions, product demonstrations, and capture IP/ROIs.
