Job description
At Slate, we're building safe, reliable vehicles that people can afford, personalize and love-and doing it here in the USA as part of our commitment to reindustrialization. The spirit of DIY and customization runs throughout every element of a Slate, because people should have control over how their trucks look, feel, and represent them.
| WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR
SLATE is looking for a motivated, energetic, and organized engineer to join our growing team as part of the Slate Rotational Program - Engineering (SRP-E), with a focus on Propulsion Systems, Embedded Controls, and Electrical Integration. This program is designed to attract, hire, and cultivate the next generation of automotive innovators for Slate Automotive, a battery electric vehicle (BEV) manufacturer. Inspired by industry-leading manufacturers, the program combines rigorous engineering job experiences, mentorship, and skill development to prepare early-career engineers for impactful careers in the rapidly evolving world of electric mobility.
Participants are hired into an engineering role and perform professional engineering duties throughout the rotational program. The engineer will rotate every 3-6 months through a variety of propulsion, software, controls, and electrical engineering assignments that challenge both leadership and technical aptitude over an 18-24-month period. A Sr. Engineering Leader will be assigned as a mentor to support the engineer throughout the program.
| WHAT YOU GET TO DO
- Perform engineering analysis, system design evaluation, and technical problem-solving requiring knowledge of electric propulsion systems, embedded software, controls, and electrical engineering fundamentals.
- Support the development, integration, and validation of BEV propulsion subsystems, including battery packs, traction inverters, electric motors, high-voltage interfaces, low-voltage controls, and related embedded software.
- Apply engineering judgment to evaluate technical challenges, recommend solutions, and drive improvements in control strategies, electrical architectures, diagnostics, and software behavior.
- Take on hands-on engineering assignments involving software debugging, controls validation, calibration support, data analysis, test execution, and electrical troubleshooting across propulsion-related systems.
- Support development and validation activities using vehicle, HIL/SIL tools, and bench testing, data loggers, oscilloscopes, CAN analyzers, and real-world vehicle prototypes.
- Work with cross-functional teams to ensure engineering assignments meet timing, cost, quality, safety, and performance expectations.
- Complete and present technical reports at the end of each rotation to senior Slate leadership, highlighting engineering outcomes, root-cause findings, and opportunities for continuous improvement.
- Engage in structured rotational assignments that may span propulsion controls, systems integration, electrical engineering, manufacturing engineering, quality, supply chain, and program management to broaden engineering expertise.
- Contribute to a capstone innovation project culminating in a technical presentation to senior leadership.
- Be an integral part of an energetic engineering team challenging the status quo of vehicle design and propulsion system development.
- Upon graduating from the program, the engineer will return to an engineering role aligned with business needs and demonstrated strengths.
| WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TEAM
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mechatronics, Controls Engineering, Software Engineering, or a related engineering discipline from an ABET-accredited program or equivalent education demonstrating strong engineering fundamentals.
- 2 years of prior engineering internship or co-op experience within automotive, electrification, propulsion, embedded systems, power electronics, or related technical environments preferred.
- Demonstrated interest in electric propulsion systems, embedded software, controls development, high-voltage systems, or vehicle electrical architectures.
- Exposure to engineering tools and workflows such as CAN tools, data analysis environments, test automation, MATLAB/Simulink, Python, or model-based development is preferred.
- Strong problem-solving ability with an interest in debugging issues across software, electrical hardware, vehicle networks, and integrated system behavior.
- Demonstrated initiative in advancing technical and leadership capabilities within engineering environments.
- Proven communication skills and experience contributing to technical projects or cross-functional initiatives.
- Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative engineering environment.
- Applicants must be authorized to work in the United States on a permanent basis. We are unable to offer visa sponsorship at this time.
