Staff Reliability Engineer, Energy Products

What to Expect

As a Staff Reliability Engineer focusing on Tesla Energy Systems, you will play a key role in designing reliability into Tesla's industrial and residential products. This role follows the reliability lifecycle of the product from concept to design, developmenttesting / analysis, manufacturing, and field operation to design-in, confirm, and grow exceptional reliability at every stage. You will investigate failures through physics of failure analysis and physical testing to accurately predict the charging system's robustness and optimize product reliability while accelerating Tesla's next gen products' time to market.

What You'll Do

• Set and communicate reliability requirements and targets for site, product, subsystem, and components
• Create Fault Trees and reliability block diagrams to assess system reliability and warranty analysis. Facilitate Design FMEA sessions to drive reliable design choices and improve validation test programs
• Analyze usage and environmental conditions from the field to improve requirement setting and testing methods
• Apply statistical analysis to test (accelerated life) and field (life) data to inform reliability physics modeling / analyses and associated corrective actions
• Work closely with Design and Reliability Data Engineers to create / interpret / validate numeric models of fielded and in-test products
• Specify reliability validation plans for components and subsystems using physics of failure. Provide guidance on sample size requirements and durations for reliability testing using lifetime models and reliability statistics
• Drive reliability assessments in product design reviews and clearly communicate risk at each phase of product development and for released products
• Facilitate failure analysis to understand root cause and drive resolution of failures occurring during product development. Research failure mechanisms to build more robust validation plans and influence design choices
• Influence supplier selection for higher reliability and provide clear guidance on reliability requirements and demonstration to suppliers
• Provide reliability design guidelines and apply reliability lessons learned to enable continuous improvement. Answer complex questions on fleet usage and behavior to enable proactive health monitoring, grow reliability, and minimize field failures

What You'll Bring
