The Senior Manager, Software Engineering for Adaptive Bench Compute leads the team that delivers scalable, on-demand compute infrastructure for automotive test and simulation bench environments. This role owns the day-to-day technical direction, roadmap execution, reliability, and customer enablement of a multi-site platform spanning bench orchestration, scheduling, identity, inventory, job execution, observability, and results management. The Senior manager translates test-program needs into durable platform capabilities, establishes measurable operating outcomes, and builds a high-performing team that can support expanding hardware-in-the-loop workloads across GM.
Success requires strong technical judgment, disciplined execution, and the ability to align peer engineering teams around shared outcomes.
Lead and develop the approximately 15-person engineering organization across platform services, infrastructure, bench integration, scheduling, developer tooling, and test enablement; establish the operating model to scale from a single-lab MVP to a multi-site operation with hundreds of benches running automation 24/7.
Own capacity and investment planning across cloud, hardware, networking, licensing, observability, and suppliers. Make transparent investment decisions for multi-location labs hosting millions of dollars in bench assets and define critical observability metrics; establish run-rate spend and cost-per-bench-hour baselines.
