Embedded Engineer, Actuators, Chassis Systems

What To Expect The ChassisSystems team islooking for an Embedded Software Engineer for actuator control development. As an Embedded Developer on the team, you will be responsible for delivering high quality software that controls various actuators on the vehicle which influence longitudinal, vertical, and lateral vehicle dynamics. You will be challenged to write efficient, safe, and robust code that works seamlessly across multiple vehicle platforms and follows first principles. You will integrate various sensors and motor controls and realize safety mechanisms on embedded targets. You will also drive design decisions on the vehicle electrical architecture, microcontroller selection, software architecture, and PCB design. Come join an industry‑defining software team that strives to build the safest and most performant vehicle control systems. What You’ll Do Develop high‑quality, safety‑critical software for the RTOS, sensor and motor actuation drivers Perform hands‑on hardware bring‑up, board‑level debugging, and code optimization Perform bench and PCB‑in‑the‑loop testing for verification of developed software Make performance and optimization trade‑offs to meet product requirements Design appropriate abstractions to allow code reuse across different vehicle platforms Specify vehicle sensor, actuator, and computational performance requirements What You’ll Bring Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or the equivalent in experience with evidence of exceptional ability Proficiency in C Familiarity with MISRA C and Python are a plus Hands‑on experience with microcontroller peripherals such as ADCs, CAN, GPIOs, PWM, and SPI Experience working with electrical schematics and understanding circuit behavior Experience working with sensors and digital signal processing Experience working with Real Time Operating Systems (RTOS) Experience working with PID controllers and other control loops is a plus Knowledge of build systems (SCons, Bazel, Buck) are a plus Compensation and 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 $120,000 - $396,000/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. Details of participation in these benefit plans will be provided if an employee receives an offer of employment. #J-18808-Ljbffr Tesla
