What are the responsibilities and job description for the Sr. Facilities Infrastructure Engineer, Terafab position at Tesla?
What To Expect
We are building Terafab — a vertically integrated semiconductor factory at an unprecedented scale. Logic, memory, packaging, test, and lithography mask production in one facility optimized for quick iteration and factory density of compute produced.
As a Facilities Infrastructure Engineer, you will design, construct, and commission the physical environment that enables 2nm-class chip manufacturing — ultra-pure water, bulk gas, chemical distribution, vibration isolation, and environmental control. This is a ground-up greenfield build, and you will own it from concept through commissioning at one of the most ambitious fab programs in the world.
What You'll Do
Lead design and specification of fab environments and infrastructure, challenging industry norms to achieve the fastest and best overall outcome Own technical scope for critical utility systems: UPW, process gases, chemical distribution, exhaust treatment, and waste systems Partner with construction management and equipment vendors to develop and execute facility build plans Establish environmental monitoring systems including AMC, vibration, temperature, humidity, and particle counts Define commissioning and qualification protocols (IQ/OQ/PQ) for all critical facility systems Develop facility capacity models to support tool installation schedules and production ramp planning Drive risk identification and mitigation for facility-level single points of failure Coordinate permitting, EHS compliance, and regulatory requirements with local and state agencies
What You'll Bring
Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent experience 8 years of semiconductor facility engineering experience, including cleanroom design and construction Deep expertise in at least two critical utility areas: UPW, process gases, HVAC/ECS, chemical distribution, or exhaust/abatement Experience managing large capital projects ($100M ) from concept through commissioning Familiarity with SMIF/FOUP-based automation and overhead transport (OHT) infrastructure requirements Strong understanding of vibration isolation requirements for advanced lithography tools (EUV-class) Experience with a greenfield fab build at 300mm Familiarity with SEMI S2/S8 safety standards and AHJ requirements in Texas Experience with BIM tools (Revit, Navisworks) for facility coordination Background in sustainability and energy efficiency for large-scale manufacturing facilities
