Sr. Manufacturing Controls Development Engineer
Job Description
Tesla is seeking a highly motivated Controls Engineer to contribute to the design and development of new automation equipment and assembly lines. The Controls Engineer will work to develop machine and process concepts along with several Manufacturing Engineering peers. Candidate will create a robust system architecture to support the concept, and then layout electrical/pneumatic schematics. Once the electrical panel is built, he/she will program all controls components such as PLC, safety devices, HMI, servo drives, process hardware and robots from power-on to debug, and finally to process fine tuning and validation. The Controls Engineer will also work with cross-functional teams throughout the entire life cycle of the product and processes. The ideal candidate will work closely with Product Design Engineering, Quality, Production and Maintenance to bring components from initial design, through prototype development and finally into full production.
