Tesla Get AI-powered advice on this job and more exclusive features. What To Expect The Manufacturing Automation Development Engineering team is seeking a highly motivated Controls Engineer to contribute to the design and development of new automation equipment and assembly lines. The Controls Engineer will work to develop machine and process concepts along with several manufacturing and mechanical design engineering peers. Candidates will create a robust system architecture to support the concept, and then layout electrical/pneumatic schematics. Once the electrical panel is built, they will program all controls components such as PLC, safety devices, HMI, servo drives, process hardware and robots from power-on to debug, and finally to process fine tuning and validation.
The Controls Engineer will also work with cross-functional teams throughout the entire life cycle of the product and processes. They will work closely with product design engineering, quality, production and maintenance to bring components from initial design, through prototype development and finally into full production.
What You'll Do
Participate in initial equipment conceptual development, carefully balancing product specifications, process control requirements, layout complexity, cost, quality, and lead-time limits Implement control reliable safety systems (ANSI/RIA 15.06 and OSHA compliant) for safeguarding robots, gantries, conveyors, and other high-volume manufacturing equipment Architect, write, and debug PLC logic, emphasizing code organization, structure, documentation, maintainability, and reusability Architect, write, and debug programs for subsystems such as robots, vision systems, test equipment, and manufacturing execution systems Participate in Tesla specification and standard creation, release to vendors, and quote technical evaluation Select and size electrical and electromechanical components Generate aesthetically simple HMI screens for complex machinery, providing sufficient feedback for troubleshooting Lay out new industrial electrical control panels that are NFPA 79, NEC, and UL 508A compliant, and create electrical, pneumatic, and fluid schematics Manage electrical cabinet builds, field wiring, pneumatic, and fluid plumbing Introduce automated processes into production, and train maintenance and production teams to support after deployment into production
What You'll Bring
Proficiency in standard and safety PLC programming (Allen Bradley Studio 5000 or Beckhoff TwinCAT 3, but Siemens TIA Portal preferred) Proficiency in script-based programming (Python, Go, and SQL) Proficiency in robot programming (Kuka or ABB, but Fanuc preferred) Proficiency in servo system commissioning (Rockwell Kinetix or Beckhoff Drive Manager 2, but Siemens SIMATIC preferred) Proficiency in 2D/3D vision system programming (Cognex Insight or LMI Gocator, but Keyence XGX preferred) In-depth knowledge of equipment safety standards (ANSI/RIA 15.06 and OSHA compliant) and electrical standards (NFPA 79, NEC, and UL 508A) Degree in Mechatronics, Electrical, Mechanical, or Computer Science Engineering, or equivalent experience
Benefits Compensation and Benefits Along with competitive pay, as a full-time Tesla employee, you are eligible for the following benefits at day 1 of hire: Aetna PPO and HSA plans > 2 medical plan options with $0 payroll deduction Family-building, fertility, adoption and surrogacy benefits Dental (including orthodontic coverage) and vision plans, both have options with a $0 paycheck contribution Company Paid (Health Savings Account) HSA Contribution when enrolled in the High Deductible Aetna medical plan with HSA Healthcare and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) 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 Sick and Vacation time (Flex time for salary positions), and Paid Holidays Back-up childcare and parenting support resources Voluntary benefits to include: critical illness, hospital indemnity, accident insurance, theft & legal services, and pet insurance Weight Loss and Tobacco Cessation Programs Tesla Babies program Commuter benefits Employee discounts and perks program
