Electronic Design Engineer, New Programs Engineering
Apply for the
Electronic Design Engineer, New Programs Engineering
role at
Tesla .
What To Expect The New Programs Engineering team works at the front-end of vehicle design and development, working in an iterative environment to study, simulate, build, and prove Tesla’s future generation of vehicles. This position will interact with many cross‑functional teams from the Design, Vehicle Engineering, and Powertrain Engineering teams in creating different prototypes for engineering development. This is an electronic design engineering position where product design expertise and a fundamental, first principles approach to problem solving are far more important than extensive project engineering or automotive industry specific experience.
What You’ll Do
Ownership of harness designs for prototype and early‑phase vehicle programs, including electrical schematics, BOM, harness drawings and system diagrams. Taking design from concept through prototype vehicle build
Document build/rework instructions for complex vehicle wire harnesses
Collaborate with various engineering teams to integrate new electrical subsystems into prototype vehicles
Support firmware and technician teams debugging and bringing up electrical systems in prototype vehicles
Design PCB hardware to support integration of electrical subsystems
What You’ll Bring
Degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience
A minimum of 2 years of experience in a product development environment
Expertise in Automotive communication networks (CAN, LIN, Ethernet)
Wire harness design and build experience including knowledge of appropriate tools, materials, and best practices
Fundamental understanding of PCB design and experience with PCB design software and circuit simulation tools, including Altium and/or LTspice
Knowledge and experience in designing for environmental constraints (temperature, humidity, and vibration), regulatory compliance and product debug (EMC/EMI, ESD, transients, etc.)
Effectively handle multiple priorities, organize workloads, and meet tight delivery timelines
Detail‑oriented personality with effective documentation and reporting
Excellent communicator, resourceful, and mindful of time management
Benefits
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 with $0 paycheck contribution options

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 (flexible for salary positions), and paid holidays
Backup childcare and parenting support resources
Voluntary benefits including 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.
