General Motors is a global leader in advanced driver assistance, proving that automation can be trusted, intuitive, and helpful. With Super Cruise hands-free technology in more than 500,000 vehicles and over 700 million hands-free miles driven, GM is bringing cutting-edge advances to everyday drivers at unprecedented scale. Our vision is a world with Zero Crashes, Zero Emissions, and Zero Congestion, and we embrace the responsibility to lead the change that will make our world better, safer, and more equitable for all.
The Evaluation team builds and evolves the ecosystem that powers the development and scaling of GM's autonomous driving technology. We act as system-level integrators and arbiters of end-to-end AV quality, partnering with Autonomy, Simulation, Systems, and Safety teams. We own large-scale test scenario libraries, continuous evaluation pipelines, and critical risk assessment components, treating road testing, data mining, training, and metrics as first-class use cases in a unified analytics framework.
We are looking for an Engineering Manager to lead a team building the software, metrics, and analysis systems used to evaluate autonomous driving performance at scale. This leader will combine strong technical judgment with people leadership, cross-functional influence, and execution rigor to help shape GM's core evaluation platforms and accelerate validated AV deployment. You will turn system-level results into clear feedback for engineering and leadership, driving the design of analysis algorithms and ensuring methods are explainable, scalable, and useful to development teams.
We believe we all must make a choice every day to drive meaningful change through our words, deeds, and culture. Every day, we want every employee to feel they belong to one General Motors team. Our diverse team brings collective passion for engineering, technology, and design to transform mobility. We are looking for adventure-seekers and imaginative thought leaders to help us deliver on our vision.
