What To Expect
Location: Gigafactory Grünheide
Duration: min. 6 months
Time type: Full Time
Start date: Flexible
Mechanical engineers within the High Voltage Distribution team routinely tackle extremely difficult engineering challenges and continuously push beyond what was deemed impossible in regards to mechanical packaging, electrical and thermal performance, cost, and delivery timelines.
High Voltage Distribution (HVD) owns the vehicle’s high-voltage backbone: the charging hardware and the power path from the HV battery to inverters and high-voltage accessories. Our teams operate with a non-conventional automotive product development philosophy of high inter-disciplinary collaboration, flat organizational structure, and technical contribution at all levels. You would be expected to challenge and to be challenged, to create, to innovate.
Being working in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial company should be a pleasure for you. We are building real products. This should excite you. You would work alongside exceptionally motivated engineers in a fast and rapidly changing environment. You are obliged to determine to make your designs successful and excited to engineer the best electric vehicles in the world.
What You'll Do
Design of mechanical components and harness routing for Tesla vehicles Design of various test jigs and fixtures to validate HV harness and connectors Work with design engineers and technicians to support prototype vehicle builds and debug electrical harness issues Run basic part validation including thermal testing, thermal characterization and assembly functional checks Create test reports and documentation of results and issues Be production first responder to diagnose vehicle HV harness and connector issues for vehicles in production line Investigate root cause of failures and help to drive product improvement Supporting build and expansion of engineering lab (equipment, layout)
What You'll Bring
C1 level in English, German is a plus Currently working towards a BS, MS, or advanced degree in a relevant engineering program such as Mechanical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mechatronics, or related field Strong knowledge of engineering fundamentals, such as mechanics, fluid dynamics, heat transfer, material properties and basic electronics Demonstrated hands-on abilities (e.g. machine shop skills, technical hobbies/academic projects, etc.) - Experience with student Formula Vehicle, Solar Car, etc. is a plus Proficiency in CAD modeling. CATIA V5/V6 and 3DX experience is a plus Strong knowledge of tolerance analysis, applying GD&T, finite element analysis (FEA), and basic thermal models Detail-oriented personality with top-tier documentation and reporting skills
