GM’s Autonomous Vehicle Platform Software Engineering organization builds the foundational software that enables autonomous-driving capabilities to run reliably on production vehicle platforms. The organization’s teams span platform operating systems and compute drivers, embedded MCU software, core services and tools, and system-performance engineering. Their work includes developing low-level platform software, middleware, service interfaces, software-update and deployment capabilities, diagnostics, logging and observability, and performance tooling across vehicle compute systems.
Working at the intersection of software, hardware, AI/ML, and vehicle systems, the teams integrate operating systems, sensors, compute, and application workloads to deliver secure, efficient, testable, and production-ready autonomous-vehicle capabilities. Engineers collaborate closely with AV, AI/ML, hardware, systems, validation, and safety partners, with opportunities to contribute across embedded software, platform engineering, developer tools, and performance optimization. Depending on team needs, projects may focus on platform OS and drivers, MCU software, core services, vehicle software integration, or system and ML-workload performance.
As an Autonomous Driving Software Engineer Intern, you will contribute to the design, development, and validation of cutting-edge software powering self-driving systems. You’ll collaborate with experienced engineers across AV Platform teams to build scalable, safety-critical software for autonomous vehicles operating in real-world environments.
