Battery Cell Simulation Engineer

What To Expect We are seeking a Cell Simulation Engineer to work across cell teams, organizing and processing lithium-ion cell data to support critical design and analysis decisions. You will develop and maintain visually rich, data-driven tools that inform engineers across the company and optimize Li-ion cell models for electric vehicles and energy products. You will optimize model parameters to best predict empirical battery data, write test plans, propose design of experiments, and summarize results in test reports. You will also use data manipulation and visualization skills to convey model and test results to fellow engineers, follow up on inquiries, and disseminate bleeding-edge results traceably and reproducibly. What You'll Do Process and analyze large-scale simulation and experimental datasets using MATLAB, Python, or similar toolsOptimize model parameters to accurately predict empirical battery performanceDevelop automated reporting and visualization frameworks to convey model and test resultsCollaborate with Cell Engineers to support cell design, analysis, and electrochemical modelingWrite test plans, design experiments (DOE), and summarize findings in technical reportsMaintain high-level metrics linking simulation data to electrochemical modelsSupport cross-functional teams with data requests and disseminate research findings efficientlyDocument model workflows, implementations, and simulation study results What You'll Bring Degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent experienceExpert-level programming and data analysis skills in MATLAB or PythonStrong data visualization capabilitiesExcellent analytical and organizational skillsAbility to manage multiple projects simultaneously in a fast-paced, dynamic environmentExcellent interpersonal and collaboration skills; ability to work patiently and effectively with engineers across multiple disciplines and teamsExperience with MySQL or other database systemsFamiliarity with lithium-ion cell testing and characterizationBackground in battery modeling or electrochemical systems Benefits Along with competitive pay, as a full-time Tesla employee, you are eligible for the following benefits at day 1 of hire: Medical plans > plan options with $0 payroll deduction Family-building, fertility, adoption and surrogacy benefits Dental (including orthodontic coverage) and vision plans, both have options with a $0 paycheck contribution Company Paid (Health Savings Accounts) HSA Contribution when enrolled in the High-Deductible medical plan with HSA Healthcare and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) 401(k) with employer match, Employee Stock Purchase Plans, and other financial benefits Company paid Basic Life, AD&D Short-term and long-term disability insurance (90 day waiting period) Employee Assistance Program Sick and Vacation time (Flex time for salary positions, Accrued hours for Hourly positions), and Paid Holidays Back-up childcare and parenting support resources Voluntary benefits to include: critical illness, hospital indemnity, accident insurance, theft & legal services, and pet insurance Weight Loss and Tobacco Cessation Programs Tesla Babies program Commuter benefits Employee discounts and perks program Expected Compensation $112,000 - $168,000/annual salary + cash and stock awards + benefits Pay offered may vary depending on multiple individualized factors, including market location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
