Manager, Software Engineering – Diagnostics Infrastructure

Description

This is a backfill role for an existing opening, and applications are still being accepted.

The company uses artificial intelligence as part of its hiring process for this role.

The role is hybrid. The successful candidate is expected to be in the Markham Elevation Center at least three times per week, or at another frequency the business sets.

The company builds next-generation autonomous vehicles and the platforms that run them. You will manage a software engineering team in the Autonomous Vehicles Integrity Platform group, which leads the AV Diagnostics Infrastructure team.

That team builds the fault detection and diagnostic base for autonomous-driving and active-safety systems, including shared software for AV sensing, compute and vehicle platforms that is reused across AV and IVI systems.

The job combines people leadership, product ownership, architecture and delivery across several vehicle programs. The successful candidate will be a technically credible people leader who can link software architecture and engineering delivery to outcomes at the vehicle level. You will help build a reusable diagnostic platform that supports the reliability, observability and launch readiness of the company's autonomous vehicles and active-safety products.

Responsibilities

• Lead, coach and grow a team of software engineers, including feedback, career development, performance management, hiring and succession planning.

• Manage technical risk, issue resolution, dependency tracking and release readiness for vehicle-program milestones.
• Set up solid engineering practices for design and code reviews, unit and integration testing, automation, static analysis, CI/CD, logging, metrics and observability.
• Make sure the software supports safety, compliance, manufacturing, serviceability and robust degraded operation.
• Give technical and program leadership clear updates on status, risks, decisions and recovery plans.
• Build an inclusive, collaborative culture centred on accountability, innovation, continuous improvement and technical excellence.

Requirements

• A bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical or Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, including embedded, automotive, platform or infrastructure software.
