What to Expect

Tesla’s continued success depends on Engineers being able to develop, debug, and deploy software quickly. Our web services, tools, and build infrastructure directly impact over 1000 vehicle, energy, and Autopilot Software Engineers. You’ll be joining a small team located at the center of the firmware organization called Engineering Productivity, Build and Internal Infrastructure. This unique position exposes us to a wide array of interesting technical challenges and enables us to be the defenders of best practices such as code hygiene, reuse, and maintainability. As the brains of a whole organization, you will work on developer experience, build frameworks and high availability of tools, services, and computational cluster. 

Join us, and in addition to contributing to every Software Developer’s efforts, the opportunity arises to push a first PR with personal code to a real Tesla vehicle within the first week (or day). This role directly impacts real-world Tesla customers by enhancing the speed and reliability of Over-the-Air updates, involves making decisions on the products delivered to customers, and plays a part in accelerating the world’s transition to sustainable energy.

What You’ll Do
Work on building a distributed compute system, running code on hundreds of bare metal & cloud servers.  
Make code more efficient to run, optimizing resources across the cluster, and speeding up the compute workloads we face  
What You’ll Bring
5+ years of professional software development experience
Excellent knowledge of any modern programming language (Golang, C++, Python, Rust, Ruby, etc.) 
Strong Linux knowledge 
Experience with distributed compute systems (k8s, Slurm, LSF, etc.) or distributed architectures 
Knowledge of messaging services (RabbitMQ, Kafka, Redis, etc.)
