Staff Sensor Hardware Engineer

Join to apply for the Staff Sensor Hardware Engineer role at Tesla

What To Expect

The Sensing Hardware Team is responsible for architecting, designing, validating, and integrating state-of-the-art sensing technologies for vehicle autonomy. The sensors we develop play critical roles in self-driving, in-cabin safety monitoring, user interaction, HVAC control, environmental sensing, and more. As a Sensor Hardware Engineer, you will be responsible for the overall performance of the sensing system and its features at any point in the product life cycle; serve as the owner of a given sensing system to address any issues discovered from development through deployment; understand and debug hardware and software interactions from prototyping through product launch; and manage priorities and support a host of projects simultaneously.

What You'll Do

• Specification generation : distill sensor product requirements into constraints and actionable engineering systems design discussions
• Collaboration : lead cross-functional sensor design discussions with electrical, software, supply chain, manufacturing, thermal, and mechanical teams
• Architecture definition : translate sensor design discussions into design documents in the form of system block diagrams, functional and performance requirements
• Schematic design : use EDA tools to define the electrical components and their connectivity
• PCB Layout : supervise the generation of board design files through all design phases
• BOM definition : work with the supply chain team to ensure components will meet performance, cost & manufacturing requirements
• Prototyping : support early sensor prototype development to de-risk new technologies
• Validation : generate and execute the test plan that includes milestones that focus on de-risking product and / or feature deployment and align with the program timeline
• Qualification : ensure the hardware meets required design criteria across a host of environments and regulations while collaborating with the reliability, test and homologation teams
• Production : work with manufacturing / test teams and suppliers to achieve high-volume mass production with high yield
