What To Expect
We are looking for a hands-on problem-solver to help push Tesla's Autopilot program into territory nobody has mapped yet. Our Autopilot Engineering Technicians work alongside test engineers on features and vehicles that don’t have a finished playbook - they invent the test setups, design the rigs and instrumentation, and work out how to capture the right measurements when no off-the-shelf method exists.
The right person is genuinely curious, energized by ambiguity, and happiest when the problem in front of them has no documented answer. When a tool for the job doesn't exist, your instinct is to design and build it, not wait for someone else to.
The role is full-time and requires flexibility to travel (up to 40%) to domestic and international test tracks, proving grounds, and public-road test locations on a fluid schedule.
Please note:
We require an English version of your CV to be submitted with your application.
What You'll Do- Work with test engineers to define new test methods for Autopilot features - Pedestrian Detection, Autonomous Emergency Braking,
Road Departure Avoidance, and features that don't have names yet - often with no prior procedure to reference
- Design and fabricate custom instrumentation, fixtures, target rigs, and test equipment. Expect to spend real time in CAD, at the workbench, and iterating on your own hardware
- Prepare prototype vehicles for testing: instrumentation installs, part swaps, diagnostics, and debugging unexpected behavior on cars that aren't finished yet
- Maintain and troubleshoot the test fleet and test equipment - keep vehicles, rigs, sensors, and instrumentation in a known-good state, diagnose issues when something misbehaves, and get things back up and running quickly so testing isn't held up
- Support test trips on- and off-site - help test engineers execute their campaigns, set up and operate vehicles and equipment (including towing trailered equipment to and from test locations), troubleshoot on the
