Sr. Embedded Software Engineer, Charging (m/f/d) - #998907

What To Expect
At Tesla Engineering Germany GmbH in Freiburg, we’re building the future of sustainable energy by developing innovative power electronics for energy storage and vehicle charging systems. Join our team to collaborate across different engineering areas, solve meaningful challenges creatively and transfer concepts from initial design, through prototyping and testing into real-world solutions.

This is an opportunity to own key projects, use modern tools, and work in state-of-the-art facilities to create technologies that shape how energy systems evolve. You get to work on advancing power electronics used for Tesla products globally, thereby directly contributing to the acceleration of the world's transition to sustainable energy. 

What You'll Do

Implement firmware for embedded systems components within our Superchargers

Develop, enhance and debug new and existing real-time firmware in C and C++

Responsible for hands-on bring-up of products accelerating them through manufacturing to scale

Develop CI tests (unit test, SIL, HIL, etc.) to validate component and system functionality

Deliver optimized solutions co-designed between firmware and hardware teams meeting aggressive schedules that Supercharge our fleet

What You'll Bring

Degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or Electrical Engineering, or equivalent experience

5+ years of professional firmware development experience

Capable of delivering top quality C and C++ code in a real time embedded environment with significant multithreaded and RTOS experience

Experience with peripheral interfacing (CAN, Ethernet, SPI, I2C, UART, ADC, PWM) and networking protocols (TCP, IP, UDP). Desired experience with Protobuf and UDS

Must be comfortable with hands-on lab work (including the use of scopes/logic analyzers, CAN tools, soldering irons, etc. as needed to support integration)

Strong software fundamentals including architecture design, algorithm development, data structures, code modularity, and maintainability

Desired to have experience implementing firmware for power conversion, thermal controls, battery management, or other highly physical product implementations

Needs to have a test-driven mentality, where unit testing, validation plans, and quality are second nature

Passion for solving challenging problems and ability to break down problems to efficiently get things done
