Technical Program Manager, CAD, High Voltage Battery Pack
- Tesla
- Palo Alto, California
- Full Time
CAD Technical Program Managers and Engineers on the Battery Pack Design Engineering team drive top-level battery 3D & 2D assemblies & documentation to enable seamless development & production of all Tesla vehicle high voltage batteries (HVB). Our team owns top-level HVB assembly documentation, creates complex CAD assemblies of hundreds of parts, develops comprehensive technical assembly drawings to communicate with global supply chains and factories, owns accurate bills of materials across multiple product configurations, and executes change management with teams across the company.
This role requires a highly organized mind set and skill/experience managing large and complex assemblies. You will be the point of contact for HV battery content - so you must be a strong communicator who is comfortable working across multiple teams, you will also be the owner of complex assemblies and documentation - so you must be detail oriented with a high standard for quality of work. Tesla moves quickly, so being selfmotivated and disciplined is critical. You must be passionate, but direction changes frequently, so you must also be resilient. Our HVB team makes the batteries for all our Electric Vehicles.
