What to Expect

You will model, design, implement, test, and benchmark the motor controls of current and future Tesla traction motor drives. Join the team building the drive inverter controls behind Roadster acceleration and the most efficient EV on the road.

What You’ll Do

• Define requirements for motor control software and interfacing hardware components including voltage and current sensors, power stages, and position sensors
• Drive design of, and implement motor controller functionality, behaviors, and algorithms
• Develop, test, and validate motor control algorithms in the laboratory and in-vehicle
• Influence R&D on future inverter/motor designs, advancing Tesla's IP in drives, and controls

What You’ll Bring

• Degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or equivalent
• Experience implementing controls in traction motor or other inverter-fed drives
• Strong fundamentals of AC electric motors and drive systems analysis, modeling, and control
• Solid background in linear systems analysis, stability, and controller design
• Basic proficiency with embedded firmware development in C/C++
• Model development and data analysis in Matlab/Simulink
• Strong communication and preference for working in teams
• Knowledge of motor control algorithms: FOC, PWM schemes, sensorless/low-speed techniques
• System-oriented understanding of thermal, vehicle-level torque control, high-voltage DC-link integration, efficiency optimization, and firmware integration for electric drives
