The ideal candidate has the curiosity to dig into ambiguous, high-impact problems and the talent to turn practical solutions into production software.<p>You’ll treat applications like products: designing the solution, writing reliable code, measuring impact and adoption, then shipping updates that gain even more traction with your users.<br></p>

Raise the bar on performance, stability, and maintainability so systems hold up under real load
Monitor what you launch and iterate rapidly; the first version is never the final version

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.
