About the Job

Requirements

A degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience, and professional software development experience.
Strong programming skills in Python, including backend experience with API design, relational databases and migrations, testing, and OAuth2/OIDC.
Experience with TypeScript and React or a similar modern frontend framework.
Understanding of distributed-systems concepts, including state synchronization, concurrency, and race conditions.
Understanding of Linux fundamentals and familiarity with containers and infrastructure as code.
Hands-on experience using AI coding agents such as Claude, Cursor, or similar in real projects, with the judgment to critically review and own every change they make.
Fluency in English.
Clear written and verbal communication for producing design documents, decisions, and pull requests others can act on.

Responsibilities

Develop and own the platform's control-plane services and APIs, including job lifecycle, scheduling, state tracking, resource limits, and access control, keeping them consistent with the compute cluster and resilient to failures.
Build full-stack web and desktop features for live job monitoring, results exploration, comparing design trade-offs, workflow and admin tooling, as well as client libraries, command-line tools, and release pipelines that enable platform use from MATLAB and Python.
Manage cluster infrastructure as code, including scheduling, containers, storage, authentication, monitoring, and simulation software environments.
Maintain platform reliability, speed, and security through metrics, on-call work, and root-cause analysis.
Build AI agentic workflows that let motor designers submit studies, query results, and diagnose failures without writing code, and use AI coding agents while owning every decision.
Partner with motor designers, optimization engineers, IT, and infrastructure teams to turn engineering needs into well-designed, integrated tools.
Write code across the whole stack, shape its architecture, run shipped software in production, and work alongside the engineers who depend on the platform.
Own problems end-to-end by understanding the real need and choosing the technical path.

Desired Qualifications

Experience with high-performance computing or high-throughput computing, such as SLURM, MPI, or job schedulers.
Proficiency in Rust, or experience shipping desktop applications, command-line tools, package managers, or build systems, including cross-platform packaging, signing, auto-update, and dependency resolution.
Background in scientific computing, numerical optimization, engineering simulation such as finite element analysis, or electric motor design.
Experience building large language model-based tools or agents, including tool calling, agent frameworks, or MCP.
Observability experience with metrics, dashboards, and alerting.

Job Description

Tesla's Motor Design team drives multi-physics optimization for the electric motors of all production vehicles. We combine electromagnetic, thermal, and mechanical models with production constraints in large multi-objective optimization problems. The goal is to maximize performance and efficiency while minimizing costs. That work runs on software our team builds and operates: an in-house compute platform that turns engineers' simulation and optimization studies into thousands of jobs on a shared cluster, along with the tools they use to track, explore and compare the results. As a Full-Stack Software Engineer, you will help build, run and own this platform from end to end. That covers the control-plane services that schedule and manage work, the infrastructure underneath, and the applications, client libraries and developer tools that motor designers use every day. You will write code across the whole stack, shape its architecture, run what you ship in production, and work side by side with the engineers who depend on it. You'll own problems end-to-end understanding the real need and choosing the technical path.

Job Responsibilities

Develop and own the platform's control-plane services and APIs: job lifecycle, scheduling, state tracking, resource limits and access control, kept consistent with the compute cluster and resilient to failures.
Build full-stack features for web and desktop (live job monitoring, results exploration, comparing design trade-offs, workflow and admin tooling), plus client libraries, command-line tools and release pipelines to make the platform easy to use from MATLAB and Python.
Manage cluster infrastructure as code (scheduling, containers, storage, authentication, monitoring, simulation software environments), and keep the platform reliable, fast and secure through metrics, on-call and root-cause analysis.
Build AI agentic workflows that let motor designers submit studies, query results and diagnose failures without writing code, and use AI coding agents to move faster while owning every decision.
Partner with motor designers, optimization engineers, IT and infrastructure teams to turn engineering needs into well-designed, integrated tools.

The following will be considered as plus:

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.
