Job Description

As a Senior Software Engineer 6 Connectivity Software Verification, you will ensure the quality, reliability, and performance of GM 27s connected vehicle features, including Digital Key, Bluetooth, telematics, network connectivity (WLAN, VLAN), and in-vehicle networking stacks. You will act as a technical leader on the verification side, collaborating closely with embedded software, systems, architecture, and validation teams to define test strategies, build robust automation, and drive issue resolution across the full connectivity stack. This role is ideal for an experienced individual contributor who is hands-on with test design and implementation, comfortable working in complex, distributed systems, and passionate about delivering seamless connected-vehicle experiences to our customers.

• Own end
  9to
  9end verification strategy for key connectivity features (Bluetooth, Digital Key, telematics, network connectivity - WLAN/VLAN) from requirements analysis through release readiness.
• Design, implement, and maintain automated test suites for in
  9vehicle connectivity software and supporting tools, with a focus on regression stability and coverage.
• Develop system
  9level and integration test cases that exercise edge cases, failure modes, roaming/hand
  9off scenarios, and interoperability across ECUs, mobile devices, and backend services.
• Analyze requirements, architecture, and design documents to identify test gaps and proactively influence design for testability.
• Build and extend test frameworks, harnesses, and utilities (e.g., Python
  9based automation, log parsing, simulators, stubs/mocks) to increase repeatability and execution speed.
• Perform hands
  9on debug and triage of complex issues across Bluetooth/Digital Key, telematics control units, and network connectivity (WLAN, VLAN) layers; capture traces and logs and partner with development to root
  9cause defects.
• Work with systems, cybersecurity, and performance teams to ensure connectivity software meets reliability, robustness, and security expectations.
• Contribute to continuous integration pipelines by integrating automated tests, stabilizing nightly/continuous runs, and reporting clear quality signals.
• Mentor more junior engineers in test design, automation best practices, and debugging techniques; help raise the overall bar for connectivity software verification.
• Provide clear, data
  9driven quality status and risk assessments to stakeholders and leadership.

• Bachelor 27s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field (or equivalent practical experience).
• 5+ years of professional experience in software verification, validation, or quality engineering, including substantial hands
  9on test development.
• Strong experience testing embedded or real
  9time systems, ideally in automotive, mobile, telecom, or networking domains.
• Solid programming/scripting skills for test automation (e.g., Python; familiarity with C/C++ and/or Java is a plus).
• Practical knowledge of connectivity technologies such as:
  • Digital Key / phone
    9as
    9a
    9key solutions.
  • Bluetooth/Bluetooth Low Energy (pairing, profiles, audio/data use cases).
  • Network connectivity fundamentals (WLAN, VLAN, TCP/UDP, routing, DNS, security protocols).
• Experience designing and executing system
  9level, integration, and regression tests, including negative, stress, and long
  9run scenarios.
• Familiarity with test management and defect tracking tools, and with CI environments (e.g., Jenkins, Git
  9based workflows).
• Strong debugging skills using logs, traces, and protocol analyzers (e.g., Bluetooth sniffers, network analyzers, CAN tools).
• Proven ability to work cross
  9functionally in a fast
  9paced engineering environment, communicate clearly, and drive issues to closure.
• Strong ownership mindset, attention to detail, and a passion for delivering high
  9quality, customer
  9facing features.

• Experience testing in
  9vehicle infotainment or automotive connectivity systems (Bluetooth, Wi
  9Fi, Digital Key/BLE, telematics) across multiple ECU configurations.
• Experience with in
  9vehicle networks and automotive protocols (e.g., CAN, LIN, SOME/IP, UDS, Ethernet in
  9vehicle networking).
• Background in connectivity or infotainment domains within automotive, including prior work on telematics or similar connected
  9services platforms.
• Hands
  9on experience with Digital Key ecosystems (e.g., Bluetooth LE, UWB, NFC, secure storage, mobile app integration).
• Experience with:
  • Automated test frameworks and CI/CD (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or similar),
  • Robot Framework or comparable automation stacks for bench and HIL testing.
• Prior mentoring or technical leadership experience within a verification or QA team.
• Background in correlating customer feedback (e.g., JD Power, Compass, call
  9center tickets) with technical issues and feeding those learnings into test design and KPIs.
• Strong data analysis skills (e.g., dashboards, metrics) to derive insights from large volumes of test results and logs and to improve test efficiency and effectiveness.
