General Motors, Warren, Michigan
Job Description
At General Motors, our product teams are redefining mobility. Through a human-centered design process, we create vehicles and experiences that are designed not just to be seen, but to be felt. We’re turning today’s impossible into tomorrow’s standard —from breakthrough hardware and battery systems to intuitive design, intelligent software, and next-generation safety and entertainment features.
As an Electric Drive SIL Simulation Engineer, you will accelerate the development of GM’s next-generation electric propulsion systems by turning high-fidelity, physics-based models of electric machines, inverters, and full electric-drive systems into a virtual engineering playground. You will build and apply these models to develop, simulate, and verify motor-control algorithms and system behavior across a wide range of operating conditions—well before hardware or dyno assets are available.
In this role, you connect motor-controls theory, electric-drive plant modeling, and advanced SIL environments to enable virtual calibration, automated software verification, and vehicle-level analysis. You will collaborate closely with controls, software, calibration, power electronics, and vehicle teams, using digital twins and virtual test benches to diagnose complex issues, de-risk edge cases, and directly shape the performance, efficiency, and robustness of GM’s electric vehicles.
Primary Emphasis
Physics-based electric-drive modeling
Motor-control algorithm simulation and verification
Model correlation, parameterization, and validation
Electric machine, inverter, and system behavior
Secondary Emphasis
SIL/co-simulation integration and model deployment
Model interfaces, execution timing, and regression automation
Targeted user support and technical documentation
Cross-functional collaboration with tools and software teams
