Tesla What To Expect The Power Electronics Controls and Modeling team is responsible for dynamics modeling, algorithm design, and controller implementation for switching power converters. The team’s responsibility spans a wide spectrum of power conversion systems required for both automotive and energy products. Tesla is seeking a power electronics controls engineer to join the team in developing high-performance controls for a wide spectrum of ac and dc products including chargers, grid-tied inverters, and resonant dc-dc converters. The engineer is expected to perform controls design through all stages starting with topology discussions, concept stage, modeling, implementation, and validation.
What You'll Do
Outline controller requirements based on system performance requirements Evaluate new topologies for controllability and fit to system needs Specify microcontroller requirements and drive part selection Develop controls strategy and define the supporting algorithms Develop dynamic models of the system, and tune controller algorithms accordingly to optimize performance Translate algorithms into software implementation, and work with the firmware team to integrate that into the firmware framework Test, validate, and troubleshoot controller implementation Develop and utilize computer simulations (Matlab/Simulink, HiL, SiL) to investigate new algorithms, modifications, or corner-case events Support safety/compliance testing
What You'll Bring
Degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or equivalent experience Strong analytical skills with solid device, circuit, and controls theory fundamentals Strong hands-on testing and troubleshooting skills Experience with embedded firmware development for real-time controls systems Familiarity with safety and compliance standards for grid-connected power electronics Familiarity with grid operation is a plus
