Tesla What To Expect Tesla’s Power Electronics group is looking for a skilled and motivated electrical engineer to design and develop Power Electronics converter hardware intended to be used in Tesla powertrains and energy products.
What You'll Do
Architect, design, build and industrialize power converter hardware for use in automotive and energy products applications Start to finish ownership of hardware – from specification to design, prototype, reliability validation and production Capture hardware requirements, build detailed circuit and switching models of power converters, select components, design schematics, PCB layout, build prototypes and validate hardware Collaborate with systems architecture, mechanical, PCB layout, manufacturing, reliability, and firmware engineering teams to successfully design, test, validate and manufacture power converters for Tesla products Architecture and modeling of new power electronics topologies that have superior performance
What You'll Bring
Degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience 4 or more years of relevant hands-on hardware experience in design and industrialization of power converter products Strong understanding of power converter topologies – both theory and practical design Experience with high voltage power semiconductor selection (IGBTs, Si/SiC/GaN MOSFET’s, and Diodes), design of gate drive and analog/digital sensing circuits Solid understanding of the theory and application of magnetics (inductors, transformers) and capacitors (film, ceramic and electrolytic) for high voltage and high frequency power conversion Good understanding of switching waveforms, semi-conductor loss mechanisms and experience with loss modeling Familiar with schematic capture and power converter circuit simulation tools and proficiency with basic EE tools (Oscilloscopes, Network analyzers, Signal Generators etc.) and test automation programming Experience in PCB layout for minimal stray inductance/capacitance, component placement strategies for better manufacturability, power/signal plane definition and EMC optimization Knowledge in environmental, reliability, and safety requirements for Automotive, Industrial & Residential applications Knowledge of basic control theory and experience with embedded programming, awareness of UL and CE electrical safety requirements and EMC requirements relevant to the design of power converters
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
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.
