<p>What to Expect</p> <p>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.</p> <p>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.</p> <p>The Cell Software team is responsible for building 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. Our stack is built on top of Kubernetes, Kafka, React, Go, PostgreSQL and other related platforms. We are not stuck in legacy systems.</p> <p>We're looking for an integration engineer to help us successfully commission this software into the manufacturing line and business processes of the cell organization. This role will be chief problem solver working to unblock users and ensure the software is being most effective in the cell program. This will be achieved by obtaining a deep understanding of how our software platform works and how to get it to do what the end user needs.</p> <p>The role will involve technical problem-solving using data (we produce a lot of it), configuration of software solutions based on understanding of our platforms, as well as direct user support to answer questions. It is a mix of project management, solutions engineering, and support.</p> <p>By taking on this role you will be central to getting both the software and our manufacturing process to a mature and steady state; producing cells of world class quality. You will also help us shape the software product to ensure it is solving the right problems. You'll do all of this while providing open lines of communication to our end users, supporting them as they use the software.</p> <p>What You'll Do</p> <ul> <li>Coordinate and execute integrations of Cell Software across manufacturing lines and machines, working closely with controls, manufacturing, process and quality engineers </li><li>Act as single point of contact for end users, ensure support requests are acknowledged and triaged in a timely manner, and handle line critical escalations </li><li>Develop deep understanding of what our software can and cannot do, what it should and should not do, and then use this knowledge to help solve problems and answer customer questions to improve production capacity and quality </li><li>Own prioritization of issues by understanding relative impact </li><li>Dive deep into investigations of potential system issues, using data to arrive at logical conclusions and to convince the team what action is necessary </li><li>Document issues and own solving them, then provide constructive written feedback to the core development team to improve the product </li><li>Works with high integrity, follows procedures and policies with the handling of sensitive data </li></ul> <p>What You'll Bring</p> <ul> <li>Preferred: Experience in a high volume manufacturing setting </li><li>Preferred: PLC progamming experience (Siemens, Bechoffs, etc.) </li><li>Preferred: Integration and Testing experience; integrating PLC's with human-machine interfaces (HMI's), SCADA systems, robotics, and IoT devices </li><li>Degree in an engineering field or equivalent experience and evidence of exceptional ability </li><li>1+ year of working knowledge of SQL, Splunk or other data analysis/query platform </li><li>Exposure to Python, Go or other software development languages.
