Sr. Electrical Engineer, Test Systems Engineering, Semi

The R&D Test Systems Engineering (TSE) team is responsible for identifying, designing, building, and commissioning scalable test solutions to accelerate product development cycles by leveraging Tesla's technology to reduce cost and increase flexibility.TSE is a rare team at Tesla that supports both vehicle and energy programs across R&D, engineering, and manufacturing.You will have the opportunity to contribute towards all aspects of Tesla's businesses and directly impact Tesla's mission of accelerating the world's transition to sustainable energy. The team is looking for a talented and enthusiastic Senior Electrical Engineer to join us in our mission.In this role, you will leverage Tesla's technologies (high-power bidirectional AC-DC and DC-DC converters, motor/powertrain/chassis dynamometers, inverters, data acquisition, software systems, etc.) and develop end-to-end hardware test solutions.

These solutions will be integrated with the final test system or equipment and will require close collaboration with cross-functional groups within TSE and end-users across Tesla. Responsibilities Design, develop, validate, and integrate end-to-end electrical hardware test solutions to support product development, testing, and manufacturing teams across Tesla (power electronics, motors, powertrain, battery, etc.) Ownership of PCB electronics and electrical sub-systems - specifications, design, prototyping, validation testing, and system integration Develop electrical schematics, BOM, harness drawings, system diagrams, etc Cross-functional collaboration with Mechanical, Software, Firmware, Regulatory, Testing, Manufacturing, Build and Operations teams Test equipment bring-up, commissioning, root cause analysis and troubleshooting field issues at various Tesla locations globally Create documentation for test equipment certification, operation, and maintenance Coach and mentor other Engineers, Interns, and Technicians to develop their technical skills and experience Requirements Degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience At least 4 years of relevant experience Hands-on hardware design, testing, and debugging experience in power electronics (AC/DC, DC/DC, DC/AC converters) and low-power analog, digital circuits Experience working with high-voltage and high-power systems, experience in PCB layout with signal integrity, noise, and EMI considerations (Altium experience preferred) Experience with modeling and circuit simulation tools such as MATLAB-Simulink, LTspice, etc. Experience with embedded programming (microcontrollers, DSP, etc.) and digital communication protocols (CAN, RS-485, SPI, I2C, etc.) Strong knowledge of dynos, motors, drives, power systems, and switchgear components.

Good understanding of design for manufacturing (DFM), FMEA tools/process, and quality control Experience with laboratory test equipment such as power supplies, oscilloscopes, high-voltage differential probes, current probes, power analyzers, data acquisition modules, etc Experience with test automation and data analysis in NI LabVIEW, Python, etc. and enterprise tools such as Jira, Confluence, MS Office, etc Awareness of UL and CE electrical safety requirements, NEC and international installation codes, and EMC requirements relevant to the design of power converters 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) LGBTQ care concierge services 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 $84,000 - $300,000/annual salary, depending on level cash and stock awards benefits Pay offered may vary depending on multiple individualized factors, including market location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
