What To Expect
We are looking for a Reliability Engineer with a strong background in PCBA and electronic components to join our reliability team. In this role, you will play a key role in designing reliability into our ground-breaking vehicle products. 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 electronic 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. What You'll Do Apply solid knowledge of reliability methods as well as PCBA failure modes to design accelerated test plans for design validation and demonstration of reliability growth Analyze field usage and environmental conditions to optimize requirement setting and test methods Facilitate and lead design FMEA sessions to assess product risks, deep dive into the governing physics of failure, determine validation test plans and drive reliable design choices Work with design, test, manufacturing quality, supplier quality, and service engineering to identify root causes and drive resolution for failures originating in testing and in the field Generate process validation test plans to implement at suppliers, and drive root cause corrective action with suppliers to resolve production process issues Provide reliability design guidelines and apply reliability lessons learned to enable continuous improvement What You'll Bring Degree in Electrical Engineering, Materials Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent experience2+ years of experience working on PCBA (such as PCB, flex PCB, solder joints etc.) and electronics reliability (such as passive components, MOSFETs, connectors etc.)Proficiency in understanding the intricacies and failure modes of electrical systems and components within electric vehicles Understanding of Highly Accelerated testing methods and governing equations for different types of acceleration models and strong experience with burn-in testing, Environmental Stress Screening (ESS), Ongoing Reliability Testing (ORT) Working knowledge of applied statistics, and experience with statistical software such as JMP Familiarity with Reliability software such as ReliaSoft Synthesis Platform, including Weibull++ Experience with failure analysis techniques such as optical microscopy, SEM, EDX, CT, CSAM, FTIR, X-ray, and cross-sectioning Benefits
Along with competitive pay, as a full-time Tesla employee, you are eligible for the following benefits at day 1 of hire:
Medical plans > plan options with $0 payroll deduction Family-building, fertility, adoption and surrogacy benefits Dental (including orthodontic coverage) and vision plans, both have options with a $0 paycheck contribution Company Paid (Health Savings Accounts) HSA Contribution when enrolled in the High-Deductible medical plan with HSA Healthcare and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) 401(k) with employer match, Employee Stock Purchase Plans, and other financial benefits Company paid Basic Life, AD&D Short-term and long-term disability insurance (90 day waiting period) Employee Assistance Program Sick and Vacation time (Flex time for salary positions, Accrued hours for Hourly positions), and Paid Holidays Back-up childcare and parenting support resources Voluntary benefits to include: critical illness, hospital indemnity, accident insurance, theft & legal services, and pet insurance Weight Loss and Tobacco Cessation Programs Tesla Babies program Commuter benefits Employee discounts and perks program Expected Compensation $91,600 - $234,000/annual salary + cash and stock awards + benefits Pay offered may vary depending on multiple individualized factors, including market location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. The total compensation package for this position may also include other elements dependent on the position offered.
