The Role
Tesla’s mission is to accelerate the world’s transition to
renewable energy. This isn’t just a slogan to us. We are building the largest
battery storage systems in the world. We are constantly expanding the
Supercharger network, the largest electric car charging network ever. We are
growing the largest fleets of residential solar, battery storage, and car
charging devices in many countries around the world. And we need your help!
The Tesla Energy Device Software team is looking for a
Frontend Engineer to build commissioning tools for these systems. Be it a
shipping container-sized Megapack battery at a power plant or a shoebox-sized
Wall Connector in a garage – our products need to be installed, configured, and
diagnosed. This requires elegant, reliable, and flexible user interfaces.
That’s where you and your frontend development skills come in! With your help,
we can make installing more renewable energy technology easier, faster, and
cheaper!
Our software stack is as diverse as our products. It
includes embedded and Linux-based systems, web and native apps, cloud services
and local IoT protocols. Pragmatism, willingness to dive into new codebases,
eagerness to work with stakeholders, and engineering leadership beyond just frontend
development are key strengths we expect you to bring to the table.
