What To Expect
The Battery Reliability Test team is seeking a highly motivated intern to perform high-voltage battery tests. You will focus on hands-on battery testing and support design of battery test equipment. You will work closely with senior engineers to execute complex tests, build fixtures, and analyze data in a fast-paced environment. At Tesla, scope and complexity of your assignments are limited by your aptitude, not seniority or title.

What You'll Do

  • Execute battery reliability testing that simulates realistic, accelerated lifetime, and environmental conditions on the battery pack and electrical, mechanical, and thermal sub-systems according to Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
  • Design and build mechanical and electrical test fixtures for battery system and component testing.
  • Develop test software to streamline execution, data collection and analysis.
  • Work with the cross-functional team to identify failure modes and generate reliability test plans.
  • Process raw test data to help draw meaningful conclusions and assist in preparing high-quality reports for internal technical teams
  • Participate in destructive teardowns for root-cause analysis, meticulously documenting findings and observations.
  • Collaborate with test technicians to achieve test objectives.
  • Contribute to organizational tasks & responsibilities like creation & maintenance of procedures, SOPs, standards, equipment, inspections, lab commissioning, facilities, maintenance and staff trainings.
  • Acquire knowledge about relevant industry standards, testing guidelines, and norms.
  • Tasks require working with high-voltage (live batteries) and other hazardous energy using mandated PPE and procedures and to set up and perform tests in person and in lab environments.
  • Other tasks as required.


  • What You'll Bring

  • Pursuing a degree in a relevant field (Mechanical, Electrical, Automotive, Chemical Engineering, Mechatronics, Physics, or similar).
  • Strong knowledge of engineering first principles
  • Basic understanding of multiple of the following: statics, mechanics, linear circuits, digital systems, heat transfer, fluid dynamics, or measurement and instrumentation
  • Familiarity with coding/scripting for test automation purposes, preferably Python.
  • 3D Design/CAD skills and creation of fundamental wiring and hydraulics diagrams are required.
  • Fluency in English; German is a plus.
  • A proactive, safety-first attitude with the ability to work effectively in a dynamic, fast-paced lab environment.
  • Exceptional organization and communication skills (both written and verbal).
  • Ability to work independently in a safely critical environment.


  • Additional Preferred Skills

  • Initial experience in an OEM or equipment/machine manufacturer is a plus
  • Experience with CAD software (3D mechanical or electrical PCB)
  • Experience using electrical or mechanical test equipment: multimeters, power supplies, DAQs, instron, leak testers, fatigue testers, etc.
  • Project management experience or foundations are a plus
