Tesla is re-thinking how batteries are made from the ground up. We're designing new factories, new equipment, new processes, and new software to rapidly scale battery manufacturing, globally. The primary bottleneck to Tesla's future expansion (and the transition to sustainable transport and energy storage) is our ability to produce and procure batteries - that's why we're innovating in-house, with our collection of world-class engineers, to redefine the industry. Software, data, and automation all play a huge part in this strategy.

We've built software from scratch with a nimble and high performing team to meet the specific needs of Tesla's rapid battery manufacturing scale up. This software tracks every component of the cell manufacturing process and acts as the brain of the entire cell factory. It's key to ensuring batteries are made safely and for understanding how to improve processes. This platform is the conduit for data coming from the line, and it is part of the goal to have more data about manufacturing, end to end, than any other company.

The Cell Software team is responsible for building software solutions that allow the company to redefine manufacturing and production. We focus on implementing effective software advances, distributed fault-tolerant computing, and modern user- experience to manufacturing systems throughout Tesla. Our stack is built on top of Kubernetes, Kafka, React, Go, PostgreSQL and other related platforms. We are not stuck in legacy systems.

We're looking for an experienced, staff-level developer to own the architecture and lead development of large sections of our in-house Manufacturing Execution application, which interacts with PLCs and other equipment on the line (thousands of devices) to collect, analyze and direct manufacturing processes. You will work directly both with end customers of the software and with leadership to fully understand the problem space and design our next generation of systems to allow us to continue to grow to the massive scale at which Tesla plans to manufacture batteries. An ideal candidate has experience with high data throughput applications and growing architectures/designs from medium to large scale.

• Own and define the architecturefor large portions of the software for our battery factories, designingfault-tolerant, distributed, and adaptive systems
• Solve world-first computingproblems at scale that allow us to do more with our huge set of data
• Provide technical leadership andguidance to teams within Cell Software
• Write backend code that unlocksnew features for engineers and associates across the manufacturing domain
• Write code that is reliable, welltested and which directly impacts Tesla's bottom line
• Interface with controls engineers,operators and other engineers to build the most effective automation systemsand solutions. This includes getting immersed in defining and implementingautomation system processes flows
• Build tools, test-automation anddocumentation
• Respond to and handlemanufacturing process change requests promptly

• 5 years of experience buildingbackend systems
• Demonstrated experience scalingsystems to large data volumes and throughput
• Understanding of algorithms, datastructures, concurrency, distributed systems and eventual consistency
• Proficiency in Go, Java, C, C C#or other backend language
• Demonstrated experience buildingsolid, testable, and maintainable clean code
• Proficiency working in ahigh-impact, responsive, and collaborative team environment
