What are the responsibilities and job description for the Reliability Engineer, Low Voltage Body Control Modules position at Tesla Motors?
Job Details
We are looking for a Reliability Engineer with a strong background in low voltage electronics to join our reliability team. In this role, you will play a key role in designing reliability into our ground-breaking body control modules. 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.
This role is highly engaging, and you will collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to understand emerging designs and architectures. You will be responsible for identifying risks associated with body control modules and the electronic systems they interact with. 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 use your engineering knowledge to help 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.
