The Role:
As a Summer Intern, you will contribute to aerodynamic development within GM Motorsports. Depending on team priorities and your background, your work may involve computational fluid dynamics (CFD), physical testing, automation, data processing, machine learning, or artificial intelligence applications for engineering.
The Team:
GM Motorsports is a high-performance engineering organization competing at the highest levels of global motorsport. Our programs span Cadillac Formula 1, Chevrolet NASCAR and INDYCAR, and Cadillac sports-car racing through IMSA and the LMDh program. Across these programs, our engineers develop and apply expertise in aerodynamics, vehicle performance, simulation, wind-tunnel testing, data science, software, tires, propulsion, and vehicle systems.
Motorsports is a technology test bed for GM. The methods, tools, and insights developed at the racetrack can accelerate production-vehicle engineering, while GM’s production engineering capabilities help advance race-car performance. As an intern, you will work alongside experienced engineers and technical leaders on projects that connect high-performance racing with real-world engineering innovation.
What You’ll Do:
Example assignments may include:
Develop and improve CFD workflows across CAD preparation, geometry cleanup, meshing, solver execution, post-processing, and automated reporting.
Develop tools and methods for wind-tunnel aerodynamic testing, including test planning, instrumentation, data acquisition, controls, and data processing.
Develop and validate machine-learning or surrogate models that improve aerodynamic performance prediction and flow-field inference.
Develop AI-enabled tools that improve engineering productivity, accelerate analysis, and support technical decision-making.
Work with engineers and technical leaders to define requirements, evaluate results, document methods, and communicate recommendations.
Projects will be defined by team needs and aligned with the candidate’s experience, interests, and development goals.
Required Qualifications:
Pursuit of a graduate degree in one of the following areas: physics, mathematics, aerospace engineering, mechanical engineering, computational science, or a closely related field.
Must be graduating after September 2027 or beyond
Able to work fulltime, 40 hours per week during the summer months
Demonstrated experience developing CFD surrogate models, reduced-order models, or other data-driven methods for performance prediction or flow-field inference.
A strong foundation in one or more of the following areas: mechanical design, aerodynamics, CFD, computer vision, three-dimensional generative design, machine learning, or scientific computing.
Strong analytical and quantitative problem-solving skills grounded in physical principles.
Demonstrated engineering capability through research, coursework, or prior technical projects.
Ability to communicate complex technical findings clearly to both specialized and cross-functional audiences.
Curiosity, initiative, and a commitment to advancing engineering methods and technology.
Preferred Qualifications:
Strong interest in motorsports and high-performance vehicle development.
Experience architecting, training, debugging, or evaluating deep-learning models.
Experience using CFD to develop or optimize aerodynamic designs.
Experience with scientific programming, software development, version control, CI/CD, or DevOps practices.
Experience with CAD, geometry processing, meshing, high-performance computing, or engineering data pipelines.
Experience working with experimental data, wind-tunnel testing, vehicle testing, or instrumentation.
GM does not provide immigration-related sponsorship for this role. Do not apply for this role if you will need GM immigration sponsorship now or in the future. This includes direct company sponsorship, entry of GM as the immigration employer of record on a government form, and any work authorization requiring a written submission or other immigration support from the company (e.g., H1-B, OPT, STEM OPT, CPT, TN, J-1, etc.)
Work Arrangement:
Hybrid: This role is categorized as hybrid. This means the successful candidate is expected to report to the Milford Proving Ground in Milford, Michigan, three times per week, at minimum [or other frequency dictated by the business].
GM will provide a one-time lump sum taxable stipend payment to eligible students selected for the 2027 Student Program - to help facilitate administration of relocation benefits, please apply using the permanent address you would move from.
Start dates for this internship role are May 24th & June 14th of 2027.
