Tesla Motors, Inc.
What to Expect
Tesla is looking to hire an Engineer to push the boundaries of Chassis systems and Chassis actuation. Working alongside the most creative and resourceful Designers and Engineers in the world on a lean and agile team, you will be responsible for full‑system design, from defining technical requirements, component selection, validation of performance, production design release and launch for multiple design executions across all Tesla programs.
What You’ll Do
Define technical systems to enable development of world‑class chassis systems that exceed functional targets and are compliant to regulatory requirements
Work through the entire product cycle with critical input early in development by collaborating with supplier and Tesla’s chassis hardware, dynamics, modeling and controls, firmware and manufacturing teams, to ensure designs meet all requirements
Develop test procedures and support rigorous testing and verification of systems to ensure accurate functionality, safety, validation and compliance with industry standards and regulations
Maintain required product development documentation
Design and build prototypes of electronic designs and conduct rigorous testing to verify performance, durability, and safety, making necessary adjustments for optimization
Focus on improving electronic system performance, cost, quality, and cost‑efficiency within
What You’ll Bring
First principles, physics‑based thinker and problem solver able to handle problems of varied scope and complexity
Demonstrate technical aptitude, excellent communication, and creativity
Understanding of mechatronics actuation and sensing, including analog and digital sensors, motor controls, inverter design, BLDC design, automotive digital communications protocols, steering, braking and suspension systems
Engineering principles in design, validation, prototyping and production of mechatronic systems along with experience designing, validating and troubleshooting of PCBAs
Experience with common communication protocols (CAN, LIN, SPI, EtherNet), their proper implementation and associated challenges
Experience with MATLAB, SimuLink, Python and SPICE for analysis, modeling, and simulations
Degree in Electrical or Mechatronics Engineering or equivalent experience
Experience with technical documentation in at least 1 full lifecycle vehicle programs to include DVP&R and DFMEA is desired
2+ years of work experience as Electrical Integration/Mechatronics engineer, preferably in safety critical systems
Compensation and Benefits 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
Expected Compensation $100,160 – $225,840/annual salary + cash and stock awards + benefits
Pay offered may vary depending on multiple individualized factors, including market location, job‑related knowledge, skills, and experience. The total compensation package for this position may also include other elements dependent on the position offered. Details of participation in these benefit plans will be provided if an employee receives an offer of employment.
