What to Expect
The Structural Design team is comprised of design engineers who love to solve challenging problems and want to create the best electric vehicles in the world.
We support each other on our journey to become better engineers and redefine what people come to expect from transportation.
While working at Tesla is a challenging opportunity, surrounding ourselves with fun and creative teammates ensures our work remains enjoyable.
The Battery Engineering organization is comprised of various teams including: Pack, Module, Structures, Devices, and Electronics engineering.
The unique expertise of our team focuses on structural design of all vehicles Tesla puts on the road.
We design the components that make up the foundation of the battery, enabling the most efficient and safe EVs on the road.
While our team focuses heavily on ensuring occupant safety and maintaining controlled environments for the battery cells, our responsibility goes far beyond.
