Staff Sensor Hardware Engineer, Tesla Bot
Jobs via Dice, Palo Alto, California, United States, 94306
Overview
The Sensing Hardware Team is responsible for architecting, designing, validating and integrating state-of-the-art sensing technologies for the Tesla Bot. The sensors we develop for Tesla Bot support manipulation and locomotion. As a Sensor Hardware Engineer for Tesla Bot, you will be responsible for overall performance of the sensing system and its features at any point in the product life cycle, serve as the owner of a given sensing system to address any issues discovered from development through deployment, understand and debug hardware and software interactions from prototyping through product launch, and manage priorities and support a host of projects simultaneously. Responsibilities
Drive the design and execution of sensing subsystems through generation, collaboration, architecture definition, schematic design, PCB layout, BOM definition, prototyping, validation, qualification and production. Lead cross-functional sensor design discussions with electrical, software, supply chain, manufacturing, thermal, and mechanical teams and translate sensor design discussions into design documents in the form of system block diagrams, functional and performance requirements. Use EDA tools to define electrical components and their connectivity and supervise the generation of board design files through all design phases. Work with the supply chain team to ensure components meet performance, cost and manufacturing requirements; support early sensor prototype development to de-risk new technologies and generate/execute test plans focused on de-risking product and/or feature deployment aligned with the program timeline. Ensure the hardware meets design criteria across various environments and regulations while collaborating with reliability, test and homologation teams and work with manufacturing/test teams and suppliers to achieve high-volume mass production with high yield. Be responsible for overall performance of the sensing system and its features at any point in the product life cycle. Serve as the owner of a given sensing system to address issues discovered from development through deployment. Understand and debug hardware and software interactions from prototyping through product launch and manage priorities across multiple projects. Requirements
Degree in Electrical or Mechatronics Engineering or a related field, or equivalent experience demonstrating exceptional expertise in the domain. Fundamental knowledge of circuit design, analog analysis, sensor physics, and statistics. Strong electrical engineering background in board-level analog and mixed-signal design. Hands-on experience in system-level design, architecture, characterization and validation. Prior experience in touch sensors, force sensors, pressure sensors or inertial sensors is highly preferred. Proven cross-functional collaboration and leadership skills. Proficiency in MATLAB, Python, SPICE, or similar simulation and modeling tools. Proficiency in data visualization and statistical analysis. Excellent written and verbal communication skills. Experience in high-volume mass production, working with suppliers and contract manufacturers. Compensation and Benefits
Base pay range: $152,000.00/yr - $318,000.00/yr Expected Compensation: $152,000 - $318,000/annual salary plus cash and stock awards plus benefits. Pay offered may vary based on location, knowledge, skills, and experience. The total compensation package may include other elements. Details of participation in benefit plans will be provided if an offer of employment is made. Benefits
Aetna PPO and HSA plans with multiple medical options and $0 payroll deduction. Family-building, fertility, adoption and surrogacy benefits. Dental and vision plans with options for $0 paycheck contribution. Company-paid HSA contribution when enrolled in the high-deductible plan. Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) for Healthcare and Dependent Care. 401(k) with employer match, Employee Stock Purchase Plans, and other financial benefits. Company-paid Basic Life, AD&D, short-term and long-term disability insurance. Employee Assistance Program and paid time off, including holidays and flex time for salaried employees. Volunteer and voluntary benefits (e.g., critical illness, hospital indemnity, accident, legal services, pet insurance). Commuter benefits and employee discounts.
