Job Description

Tesla’s mission is to build a world of amazing abundance. Achieving that at scale means setting every employee up for success from Day 1. This role coordinates New Hire Orientation to ensure every new hire has a strong, well-organized first day at Tesla. We’re looking for someone reliable, consistent, driven, and collaborative. You will own room setup, check-in, nametags, the new-hire inbox, attendance tracking, and reporting. You’ll also support organizational development coordination and administration, along with leadership development or NHO projects as the site needs. The majority of your time will focus on New Hire Orientation operations and inbox support, with the remainder on reporting, start-list work, and project coordination. The pace is high and the standard is equally high. Priorities shift quickly—you’ll think on your feet, navigate ambiguity, solve problems without waiting for direction, and stay collaborative under pressure.

About the Company

Tesla

Makes electric cars, robotaxis and grid batteries

Tesla makes electric cars and batteries that store power for homes and utilities, and it develops self-driving software and humanoid robots. In 2023, its Model Y became the first electric vehicle to rank as the world's best-selling car. Buyers order the Model 3 sedan, Model Y SUV, or Cybertruck pickup directly from Tesla instead of through dealers, and they charge on its Supercharger fast-charging network. It also sells Megapack and Powerwall batteries, runs a robotaxi service, and charges drivers a monthly fee for self-driving software that still needs their supervision. Tesla was founded in 2003, with Elon Musk as its lead early investor and a recognized co-founder, and it is based in Austin, Texas.
