The purpose of the Tesla Materials Engineering organization is the Global Mission to deliver new materials and manufacturing processes that revolutionize Tesla's products. We select, quantify, standardize, qualify, and design new materials. We work with mechanical design engineers, manufacturing, and process to deliver the right material solution for any metal, ceramic or glass that is used in our products. Products range from stamped sheet metal, castings, extrusions, welds, electrical connections, electromagnetic metals, and many more. We are seeking engineers eager to apply fundamental materials science to atomistic problems up to hands on the manufacturing.
As part of our Materials Engineering team, you will develop a particle-level simulation model for compaction of metallic powders. The goal is to predict density distribution, compaction behavior, and process parameter sensitivity — enabling data-driven process optimization that reduces development cycles and prototype costs.
You, as an intern, don't have to make the coffee here, it comes out of the machine (for free) and copiers are as rare as phone booths on the street, what you will find here is a lot of experience, new stuff, and fun. You are here on an equal footing with all employees.
