What are the responsibilities and job description for the Reliability Engineer, Thermal Systems position at EV.Careers?
What To Expect
We are looking for a Reliability Engineer for thermal systems with a strong background in heat exchangers, compressors, inverters and pumps. In this role, you will play a key role in designing reliability into our thermal systems for all Tesla vehicle programs and Semi. As a successful candidate, you will follow the reliability lifecycle of these products from concept to design, development, manufacturing, and field operation to design-in, confirm and grow exceptional reliability at every stage.
Tesla’s thermal management system is one of the most unique and integrated systems in the industry. You will collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to understand emerging designs and architectures. You will be responsible for identifying risks associated with these architectures. You will identify appropriate stresses that our products must pass and create test plans, which will be used to assess the reliability of our products. You will provide reliability analyses and suggestions to improve the reliability of our products.
You must have a genuine passion for engineering products that will fundamentally change the world, and you must be self-motivated with the desire to push boundaries. If you have a strong technical first-principles understanding, excellent problem-solving skills, and a genuine fascination for engineering, this is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the cutting-edge technology of Tesla’s products and shape the future. It comes natural to you to deliver results under high pressure with tight schedules.
The level of this position will be determined at the time of the interview.
What You'll Do
Apply solid knowledge of reliability methods and thermal engineering, mechanical engineering and electronics to design accelerated test plans for design validation, burn-in testing, environmental stress screening (ESS), ongoing reliability testing (ORT), and demonstration of reliability growthAnalyze field usage and environmental conditions to optimize requirement setting, test methods, and reliability specFacilitate and lead design FMEA sessions to assess product risks, determine validation test plans and drive reliable design choicesWork with manufacturing quality, service engineering, supplier quality and design teams to identify root causes and drive resolution for failures originating in testing and in the fieldGenerate process validation test plans to implement at suppliers, and drive root cause corrective action with suppliers to resolve production process issuesProvide reliability design guidelines and apply reliability lessons learned to enable continuous improvement
What You'll Bring
Degree in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent experience2 years of experience working on thermal systems and mechanical systems in a laboratory testing environment (including relevant internship or academic lab work experience)Experience with Python, Big-data analysis and Statistical modellingExperience with burn-in tests, Environmental Stress Screening (ESS), Ongoing Reliability Tests (ORT)Understanding of Highly Accelerated testing methods and governing equations for different types of acceleration modelsExperience with developing reliability guidelines and inventing novel ways of reliability testingWorking knowledge of reliability statistics including Weibull analysis, using Reliasoft, JMP, Minitab, etc.Working knowledge of failure analysis techniques such as optical microscopy, SEM, CSAM, X-ray, cross-sectioning and EDXSelf-driven and focused individual with a proven ability to manage parallel tasks effectively, with a desire to work in a fast-paced environmentProven ability to remain engaged, proactive, and positive in tough circumstances
