Job Details
Tesla is building robust, real-world AI through humanoid robots. As a Software Engineer within our robotics teams, you will contribute to one of the most advanced Robotics/AI Platforms in the world. You'll be responsible for integrating machine learning models with real-time systems, working across the software stack to ensure seamless communication between neural networks and hardware components.
This role is ideal for engineers with strong systems-level & networking expertise, and a solid grasp of machine learning principles-especially those excited by the challenge of deploying AI into the real world. Your work can cover everything from tuning the robot's whole-body control stack to building the infrastructure that will scale the entire robot fleet. You will help implement innovative features that leverage the power of Tesla AI. You will define and maintain content and configurations that support smooth functionality across variations of the robot platform.
