As a Staff Systems Engineer in the Physical and Virtual Tests Platform team at GM, you will design and build integration tooling and agent services in Go to connect automotive test hardware with the platform's cloud-native control plane. Your daily tasks include developing provisioning workflows for diverse bench configurations, engaging with embedded engineering teams to understand their needs, and building abstraction layers that present heterogeneous bench hardware as clean resources to the scheduler and API. You will contribute to core platform services like the API and CLI tooling while maintaining CI/CD pipelines for firmware build automation and integration testing. Key technologies include Go, PostgreSQL, Nomad, Consul, Linux system interfaces, automotive communication protocols (CAN, Ethernet), and observability frameworks such as Prometheus and Grafana. This role requires a strong background in systems-level programming, embedded systems concepts, and experience with CI/CD pipelines for hardware-in-the-loop systems.
