What to Expect

Come join a small team of experts building the systems that connect Tesla and our customers to their cars.

We’re also responsible for sending over-the-air software updates constantly delivering new features and improvements to our customers.

We are looking for a highly motivated Software Engineer specialized in web services and distributed systems. The platform this person will help us build will scale novel functionality to millions of Tesla devices and users.
