Staff Systems Engineering – Chassis Systems (Automotive)

TL;DR

Staff Systems Engineering (Automotive/Embedded): Defining and evolving end-to-end architectures for chassis motion control systems across embedded ECUs and virtual integration stacks with an accent on SIL/CoSim environments and reusable architectural patterns. Focus on integrating supplier assets, orchestrating plant models, and ensuring high-quality execution of SDV services.

Location: Hybrid: Expected to report to Markham or Oshawa office three times per week, at minimum. GM does not provide immigration-related sponsorship for this role.

Salary: $137,300 – $203,000

Company

hirify.global is leading the change toward a world with Zero Crashes, Zero Emissions, and Zero Congestion.

What you will do

• Lead end-to-end architecture for chassis motion control systems across embedded and virtual platforms, including interface ownership between domain ECUs and plant models.
• Define reusable, domain-agnostic SIL/CoSim architecture patterns and infrastructure services.
• Own SnA and system-physics plant-model infrastructure for L3 CoSim and integrate models into CI/CD pipelines.
• Own service/profile activation infrastructure and infra vECUs for SDV services across domains.
• Integrate supplier assets (FMUs, vECUs, AUTOSAR components) into CoSim and controllers, defining requirements and acceptance tests.
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship to drive cross-functional roadmaps and alignment across program teams.

Requirements

• 10+ years in control systems/software development with a strong emphasis on chassis and vehicle dynamics controls.
• In-depth knowledge of braking, steering, suspension, stability, and calibration to meet performance targets.
• Production-grade embedded software experience using C/C++ and model-based development (MATLAB/Simulink).
• Solid understanding of AUTOSAR (Classic/Adaptive) and ECU layering integration patterns.
• Strong experience with CoSim/SIL/HIL and vECU design/integration (e.g., dSPACE VEOS, ETAS vECU-Builder).
• Must not require immigration sponsorship now or in the future.

Nice to have

• M.Sc. or Ph.D. in Control Systems, Electrical/Mechanical Engineering, or Computer Engineering.
• Experience with advanced statistics, signal processing, optimization, and state estimation for vehicle systems.
• Demonstrated leadership in defining virtual integration strategies and architectural guidelines at a staff/architect level.

Culture & Benefits

• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision benefits.
• Paid time off, including vacation, holidays, and supplemental benefits for parental/adoption leave.
• Company and matching contributions to a Defined Contribution Pension plan.
• GM Vehicle Purchase Plan for employees, family, and friends.
