The Role
The Vehicle Fleet Integration Engineer is a key member of the Vehicle Fleet Experience and Integration Transformation team, focused on delivering high-impact work that strengthens GM's vehicle integration ecosystem, fleet readiness, and software-enabled vehicle experiences.
This role leads cross-functional special projects that improve how engineering fleets, exposure programs, and integration spaces operate-accelerating learning cycles, improving quality, and enabling a best-in-class developer experience. The Vehicle Fleet Integration Engineer will own scoped initiatives from concept through execution, with direct visibility to senior leadership and a clear connection to GM's goals of accelerating technical excellence, improving launch readiness, and delivering compelling customer experiences at speed.

• Lead development and ongoing refinement of fleet exposure plans, ensuring clear objectives, target personas, timing, and success criteria across development, CTF, FPF, PEP, and customer beta where applicable.
• Support execution of exposure plans in partnership with fleet, integration, quality, CVO, product, and vehicle program teams, ensuring vehicles, software, drivers, and instrumentation are aligned to plan.
• Lead coordination of demonstrations and drive events that showcase new software, services, and capabilities for internal stakeholders and leadership, ensuring readiness of vehicles, spaces, and supporting materials.
• Translate customer, driver, and program team feedback into requirements, roadmaps, and experiments to improve fleet workflows, tooling, and communications.

Vehicle Integration & Launch Readiness

• Support engineering projects that improve software integration spaces - covering layout, infrastructure requirements, tooling, and operational processes.
• Define and pilot integration workflows that improve cycle time from build to flash to drive, including handoffs between integration labs, triage, fleet teams, and drivers.
• Support readiness deliverables through key development and launch milestones, including planning, coordination, issue follow-up, and cross-functional execution.
• Support development and documentation of repeatable playbooks, standard work, and templates that can be scaled across locations.

Tooling, Data, and Analytics

• Specify and validate tools, dashboards, and data flows that improve fleet visibility and decision-making across vehicle readiness, utilization, health, status, exposure coverage, and spend.
• Work with data and IT partners to integrate vehicle, software, and usage data (e.g., GVBE, fleet tools, triage systems) into practical views for program teams and leadership.
• Use analytics to identify bottlenecks, quantify benefits, and recommend next-step investments in fleets, integration processes, and readiness execution.

Program & Stakeholder Management

• Own end-to-end delivery for assigned initiatives, including scope definition, requirements, timing plans, risk tracking, and metric definition.
• Build alignment across product, program, engineering, quality, fleet, and operations stakeholders to support timely decisions and coordinated execution.
• Create clear, concise executive-ready summaries of project status, risks, readiness concerns, and recommendations using visuals and metrics.
• Champion change management for new processes and tools, ensuring stakeholders are trained, engaged, and supported through rollout
