Job Summary:
Tesla is a leading company in the autonomous vehicles market, seeking an Engineering Manager for their Low Voltage Systems Validation team. This role involves overseeing the validation of software-driven systems for vehicle power management and controls, ensuring compliance with safety standards and enhancing testing efficiency.
Responsibilities:
• Manage, mentor, and grow a team of validation and software engineers within the Low Voltage Systems Validation team.
• Define and execute the roadmap for hardware-in-the-loop and software-in-the-loop test infrastructure to comprehensively validate the low voltage power, body controls and vehicle access & security systems.
• Develop and maintain validation strategies that address the breadth of regional, hardware, and feature variants across Tesla's product lineup.
• Ensure all features meet global regulatory and homologation requirements.
• Refine validation and release processes to deliver high-quality, compliant software with minimal overhead.
• Collaborate with Systems Engineering, Controls, Hardware Design, Software Development, Manufacturing, Release Management, Reliability, Homologation, and Component Test teams to eliminate validation gaps and accelerate compliant software deployment.
• Lead debugging and root cause analysis of complex issues involving networked microprocessors, sensors, actuators, and power management electronics.
• Deliver progress updates, metrics, and insights to the Vehicle Controls Validation Manager and engineering leadership.
• Monitor industry trends and emerging technologies to integrate advanced validation techniques for power systems, body controls, and vehicle access systems.
• Continuously look for ways to improve safety, energy efficiency, feature refinement, and customer satisfaction with Tesla products through rigorous validation of user-facing systems.
Qualifications:
