About the role
- Serve as the primary technical point of contact for selected strategic technology partners across 2P and 3P partnerships.
- Collaborate with business, product, operations, and engineering teams to develop and execute the product roadmap for partner-enabled experiences.
- Assess partner requirements, roadmaps, and technical capabilities to inform business and operational decisions (e.g., scope, sequencing, SLAs, risk).
- Represent GM’s architectural principles, constraints, and standards in partner technical forums, workshops, and design reviews.
- Work closely and proactively with technology partners and internal teams to deliver results and continuously improve processes for launching new products and services.
- Lead end-to-end solution design for partner-integrated capabilities across vehicle, mobile, cloud, and enterprise systems.
- Provide technical expertise to inform integration solutions for complex problems with partners and internal stakeholders, balancing customer experience, technical feasibility, and long-term maintainability.
- Define reference architectures, integration patterns, and data flows (APIs, events, identity/consent, telemetry) that can be reused across teams and partner engagements.
- Ensure solutions meet GM’s requirements for security, privacy, safety, reliability, performance, and compliance.
- Act as the bridge between business development and engineering, turning partner concepts and agreements into actionable technical designs and roadmaps.
Requirements
- 7+ years of experience in solution architecture, systems design, or technical leadership across complex, distributed systems.
- Strong hands-on background with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) and modern integration patterns (APIs, event streaming, messaging).
- Demonstrated experience designing and delivering cross-company or partner-integrated solutions (e.g., platform partnerships, OEM/partner integrations, large enterprise customers).
- Solid understanding of security, identity & access management, data privacy/consent, and reliability considerations in large-scale systems.
- Proven ability to communicate complex technical concepts in a clear, concise way to non-technical stakeholders (business development, legal, finance).
- Track record of driving cross-functional alignment and navigating ambiguity to reach pragmatic technical decisions.
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.
