Job Description

Tesla’s Supplier Industrialization team drives critical component development, high-volume industrialization, and part/process qualification at our suppliers. This Fremont, California–based role primarily supports Tesla’s India casting supply base—helping suppliers launch and ramp production, and designing quality systems that comply with Tesla standards.

In this role, you’ll be the quality systems expert and a core Supplier Industrialization Engineer pillar on the team. You’ll assess supplier quality systems, help design vision and automated gauging solutions, review supplier proposals, support automation design, and validate tolerances with internal design stakeholders. You’ll also partner closely with suppliers to strengthen shop-floor quality systems and drive lasting improvements in quality culture. Position is open to Fremont, CA or Austin, TX.

The Role

  • Identify, develop, manage, audit, and improve supplier manufacturing, assembly, and quality control processes—from prototype and advanced development through mass production qualification
  • Own supplier launch readiness audits to confirm part performance, delivery, and DFM requirements are met
  • Partner with Tesla Design, Quality, and Manufacturing to guide part design for manufacturability and quality
  • Lead, track, and improve supplier process development and launch readiness for new products and design changes
  • Coach suppliers to build robust processes and procedures that enable efficient, high-quality production at both prototype and high-volume scale
