General Motors is developing hands-off and eyes-off autonomous driving systems intended for broad deployment across consumer vehicles. A foundational requirement for safe, scalable autonomy is that sensing systems perform reliably across the full range of real-world weather conditions.

We are seeking a Staff Systems Engineer to join the Sensor Systems Engineering & Architecture team to provide technical leadership in defining how autonomous sensing systems are characterized, specified, and validated under weather and contamination conditions. This role focuses on system-level decisions at the intersection of sensors, perception software, vehicle platforms, and real-world operating environments — ensuring that sensing solutions are technically sound, weather-resilient, and executable in production.

In this position, you will lead system-level trade studies, define performance requirements for sensors under adverse weather and contamination scenarios, and develop the technical frameworks used to assess sensor cleaning solutions. You will work closely with perception, validation, platform software, and vehicle integration teams to drive forward a rigorous and scalable approach to weather and cleaning performance assessment. This role is intended for engineers who are comfortable operating in ambiguity, applying first-principles analysis, and providing steady technical direction as systems mature from early development into deployed solutions.
