About the role

Job Description

We are hiring a Senior Engineer to join the Hybrid Services & Reliability (HSR) team as a foundational member. At GM, AV Core Infrastructure (ACI) is the engine room responsible for the unified, secure hybrid platform that powers all autonomous vehicle hosting, validation, and testing.

You will be responsible for building and maintaining the "system trust" required for Super Cruise validation, where the 95%+ readiness of our "bench cloud" environment is a Tier-0 requirement. We are looking for an engineer who is uncomfortable with manual toil and is driven to build systems where scaling and recovery are inherent properties.

Technical Domain Responsibilities:

Reliability Execution: Implement and manage Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and SLIs for critical hybrid services, ensuring the platform meets rigorous uptime and readiness targets.
Service Automation: Drive the automation of foundational on-prem utilities—including DHCP, PXE, and NTP—to ensure the fleet of remote CI-based hardware benches is always provisioned and ready-state.
Observability & Response: Build and optimize observability stacks (dashboards and alerting) to detect system degradation before it impacts developers, focusing on reducing Mean Time to Recovery (MTTR).
Environment Stability: Own the integrity of data ingestion paths from physical test benches through the secure cloud network, ensuring dependencies are stable and performant.
Operational Excellence: Identify and eliminate "human duct tape" by replacing manual, repetitive tasks with robust automation primitives and self-service tools.
Mentorship: Provide technical guidance and peer reviews for other engineers, fostering a culture of high-quality code and resilient architecture.

Skills & Abilities:

Required: Proven professional experience in Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) or DevOps, ideally within a hybrid cloud environment.
Required: Strong proficiency in Linux systems administration and the management of core networking services (DHCP/PXE).
Required: Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and configuration management tools (e.g., Chef, Ansible, or Terraform).
Required: Ability to break down broad technical challenges into clear, implementation-ready initiatives with minimal supervision.
Required: A "Growth-based Mindset" with a commitment to continuous learning and upskilling in a high-velocity environment.
Preferred: Experience with Kubernetes (k8s) and monitoring high-throughput data pipelines.

Compensation: The compensation information is a good faith estimate only. It is based on what a successful applicant might be paid in accordance with applicable state laws. The compensation may not be representative for positions located outside of New York, Colorado, California, or Washington.
- The salary range for this role is $148,100 to $222,000. The actual base salary a successful candidate will be offered within this range will vary based on factors relevant to the position.
- Bonus Potential: An incentive pay program offers payouts based on company performance, job level, and individual performance.
- Benefits: GM offers a variety of health and wellbeing benefit programs. Benefit options include medical, dental, vision, Health Savings Account, Flexible Spending Accounts, retirement savings plan, sickness and accident benefits, life insurance, paid vacation & holidays, tuition assistance programs, employee assistance program, GM vehicle discounts and more.
