Join Tesla’s Manufacturing Test Engineering team as an Electrical Design Engineer, where you'll design cutting-edge electrical systems for test equipment embedded in our manufacturing lines. This hands-on role focuses on contributing innovative ideas, developing proof-of-concepts, supporting mass production, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to create best-in-class test systems for Tesla’s vehicle offerings (Model 3/Y, Semi Truck, Cybertruck, CyberCab) and energy products (Supercharger, Megapack, Powerwall). You'll work in a dynamic environment, emphasizing robust, data-centric production testing for high-voltage electronic components in vehicles, stationary storage, and related applications. Expect a fast-paced setting with up to 20% domestic and international travel to support multi-site operations.

• Architect novel, fully automated testing machinery from first principles, balancing cost, lead time, complexity, and test coverage across disciplines
• Research and specify electrical test components, including measurement devices, power supplies, sensors, I/O devices, multimeters, oscilloscopes, and power analyzers, to meet test requirements.
• Design schematics and layouts for industrial electrical control panels using tools like EPLAN or AutoCAD Electrical.
• Implement and validate reliable industrial safety systems to safeguard high-voltage and mechanical hazards, including analyzing safety performance levels (PL) for compliant hardware and programming.
• Debug and optimize automated processes to minimize cycle time and maximize uptime.
• Characterize and validate equipment using statistical approaches (e.g., GR&R, Cpk)
• Perform bench testing on electrical components to validate test processes.

• Hands-on experience as an Electrical, Mechatronics, or Controls Engineer, with a focus on automation, machine design, or product development in industrial/manufacturing environments.
• Proficiency in building complex machine schematics using Electrical CAD software, such as EPLAN or AutoCAD Electrical.
• Experience programming Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), preferably in Rockwell Allen Bradley Studio 5000 and/or Siemens TIA Portal
• Exposure to high-voltage power electronics (e.g., inverters, DC-DC converters) and building electrical/control systems from first principles for test systems or production machinery.
• Strong skills in specifying and integrating electrical test equipment, including power supplies, multimeters, oscilloscopes, and power analyzers.
• BS/MS in Electrical, Computer, or Mechatronics Engineering (or equivalent experience).
• Excellent organizational skills, attention to detail, and analytical abilities, with a passion for hands-on problem-solving in a high-responsibility environment.
