Sr. Staff Software Engineer, Cell Software

What to Expect

Tesla is re-thinking how batteries are made from the ground up. Were designing new factories, new equipment, new processes, and new software to rapidly scale battery manufacturing, globally. The primary bottleneck to Teslas future expansion (and the transition to sustainable transport and energy storage) is our ability to produce and procure batteries thats why were innovating in-house, with our collection of world?class engineers, to redefine the industry. Software, data, and automation all play a huge part in this strategy.

Weve built software from scratch with a nimble and high?performing team to meet the specific needs of Teslas rapid battery manufacturing scale up. This software tracks every component of the cell manufacturing process and acts as the brain of the entire cell factory. Its key to ensuring batteries are made safely and for understanding how to improve processes. This platform is the conduit for data coming from the line, and it is part of the goal to have more data about manufacturing, end?to?end, than any other company.

The Cell Software team is responsible for building software solutions that allow the company to redefine manufacturing and production. We focus on implementing effective software advances, distributed fault?tolerant computing, and modern user?experience to manufacturing systems throughout Tesla. Our stack is built on top of Kubernetes, Kafka, React, Go, PostgreSQL and other related platforms. We are not stuck in legacy systems.

What Youll Do

• Own and deliver significant projects / code that impact the business and are recognizable outside of Cell Software each quarter. This could be a net?new system, a large?scale sub?system, or a large infrastructure upgrade.
• Architect correctly at the organization level. Could single?handedly design everything needed for Cell Software provided adequate time. Design mistakes are often completely irreversible and result in significant limitations to future software and business direction.
• Solve world?first computing problems at scale that allow us to do more with our huge set of data.
• Provide technical leadership and guidance to teams within Cell Software.
• Write code that is reliable, well tested and which directly impacts Teslas bottom line.
