Sr. CAE Analysis Engineer, Energy Products - Palo Alto [256341]

$91,600 - $316,800 yearly

Job Description

Our charter is to design robust and reliable electronics enclosures to enable the successful deployment and operation of Tesla’s utility-scale storage and Supercharging products. We work in a space crowded with regulatory requirements where competitors and suppliers are often invested in the status quo. Our team’s job is to ignore the status quo, challenge rules where appropriate, and implement fundamentals-only engineering to make the absolute best products possible.

As an Analysis Engineer, you will play a critical role in the development and manufacturing of next-generation Tesla Energy products. You will analyze and optimize revolutionary products never before executed. You will excel both technically as an individual and as an active member in a diverse and challenging cross-functional team environment. You will work with Industrial Enclosure & Battery Engineering teams to analyze the performance of current and future designs, and you will work with Test Engineering teams to develop tests, correlate simulation models, and improve the predictive capability of Analysis Engineering at Tesla.

The Role

  • Build state-of-the-art finite element (FE) models for analysis and optimization of revolutionary battery energy storage systems in collaboration with a small team of multidisciplinary engineers
  • Challenge established traditional CAE methods and processes to improve efficiency and accuracy
  • Use CAE tools to optimize performance for enclosures, closures, joints, and other subsystems; correlate CAE simulations to test results
  • Use correlated simulations and work closely with cross-functional engineering teams to progress the designs; where appropriate, conduct studies by utilizing optimization tools, including DOE techniques on designs, to meet performance requirements with the constraints of conflicting attributes like cost and mass
  • Support world-class engineering teams with design direction based on your analyses
