About The Position

The Product Cybersecurity Engineer is a senior individual contributor in General Motors’ Secure Product Engineering pillar. Working hands-on with product engineering teams, the engineer helps ensure software and systems are implemented securely during product development. The role builds tooling, reusable patterns, and secure-engineering capabilities, and provides technical guidance and workflows that scale across GM’s portfolio, including embedded vehicle software, mobile experiences, and other software and services. It is an execution-focused technical role in which influence comes through technical credibility, collaboration, mentorship, and leading by example rather than people management.

Requirements

At least 4 years of cybersecurity experience in application security, product security, or a similar area.
Demonstrated technical leadership and influence, including contributing without formal authority, mentoring engineers, and helping shape technical direction.
Strong experience in application security, secure software engineering, and practical technical guidance.
Experience with SAST, DAST, fuzzing, code review, and secure SDLC workflows across platforms.
Ability to read and write software in multiple programming languages to build tooling and support team execution.
Ability to work closely with engineering teams to materially improve security without unnecessary friction.
Must not require GM immigration sponsorship now or in the future, including company sponsorship or other immigration-related support.

Nice To Haves

Prior experience in the automotive industry or a similarly complex, deadline-driven, and regulated field.
Published cybersecurity research, such as conference talks, blog posts, or code repositories.
Familiarity with embedded software or OS security, mobile applications, and backend development.
Experience building custom security tooling or extending functionality in related technologies.

Responsibilities

Contribute hands-on to secure software and systems engineering, driving outcomes through direct execution and influence within engineering teams.
Design, build, and mature secure engineering services and capabilities for GM products.
Partner closely with product engineering teams and directly support secure implementation.
Implement and mature SAST, DAST, fuzzing, runtime security, and OS security hardening for core code bases.
Author technical guidance, reusable patterns, and guardrails, and help deploy them across product environments.
Perform in-depth secure code reviews and work with adjacent teams to improve tooling and incorporate security requirements into engineering.
Mentor and support engineers across the pillar through example and pairing.
