The Manager, AV Evaluation Framework will lead the Metrics Frameworks team, providing people leadership, technical strategy, and execution ownership for platforms that evaluate autonomous driving data. The role oversees scalable metrics frameworks, operational reliability, stakeholder partnerships, and engineering practices that improve AV development velocity and confidence.
Responsibilities
- Lead, coach, and grow a high-performing team of software and data engineers through hiring, onboarding, career development, feedback, and performance management
- Define and communicate the team’s technical vision, roadmap, priorities, and operating plan in partnership with Evaluation and broader AV leadership
- Own delivery of scalable frameworks for creating, executing, and monitoring metrics across simulated and real-world driving data
- Ensure the team’s platforms are reliable, observable, performant, maintainable, and easy for internal customers to use
- Establish meaningful service-level objectives, health metrics, dashboards, and operational practices for critical data and analysis pipelines
- Balance feature delivery, platform modernization, technical debt, operational support, and long-term architecture investments
- Partner with both internal and external stakeholders to translate ambiguous needs into clear technical plans and measurable outcomes
- Raise the engineering bar through strong architecture, design reviews, testing, code review, documentation, security, and operational excellence
- Develop mechanisms that help teams distinguish framework ownership from metric-specific business logic, enabling effective collaboration and clear accountability
- Participate in and improve the team’s production-support and incident-response practices for critical metrics and data pipelines
Skills
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience
- 8+ years of experience building software, data platforms, analytics infrastructure, or evaluation systems in a production environment
- 3+ years of experience directly managing and developing engineers or other technical professionals
- Experience setting technical direction and delivering a roadmap for a platform, framework, or infrastructure product used by multiple teams
- Experience building or operating scalable data-processing pipelines, workflow systems, developer tooling, or distributed services
- Strong understanding of software engineering fundamentals, including system design, testing, code review, observability, and performance tradeoffs
- Experience using data and operational metrics to improve reliability, prioritization, and execution
- Ability to translate complex technical problems and ambiguous customer needs into clear priorities and decisions
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to influence across organizational boundaries
- Experience in autonomous vehicles, robotics, simulation, advanced driver-assistance systems, or another safety-critical and data-intensive domain
- Experience evaluating complex systems using statistical, numerical, machine learning, or time-series methods
- Experience with metrics platforms, data quality systems, experiment analysis, telemetry, or performance monitoring
- Proficiency with Python, C++, and SQL in production engineering environments
- Experience with large-scale analytical data stores such as BigQuery, Databricks, or similar technologies
- Experience with workflow orchestration, batch processing, cloud infrastructure, and data-pipeline operations
- Familiarity with simulation, sensor data, road testing, or evaluation of perception, prediction, planning, or control systems
- Experience leading platform migrations, reducing technical debt, or consolidating fragmented frameworks
- Demonstrated ability to build trust with technical and non-technical partners and create clarity in a rapidly changing environment
Benefits
- An incentive pay program offers payouts based on company performance, job level, and individual performance.
- Upon successful completion of a motor vehicle report review, you will be eligible to participate in a company vehicle evaluation program, through which you will be assigned a General Motors vehicle to drive and evaluate. Program participants are required to purchase or lease a qualifying GM vehicle every four years unless one of a limited number of exceptions applies.
- Remote/hybrid work arrangement: the role is based remotely, with employees living within a 50-mile radius of Austin, Detroit, Warren, Milford, or Sunnyvale expected to report to that location at least three times per week.
