We're looking for a Software Engineering Intern to build full-stack applications that transform how HR works at Tesla. You'll use modern AI capabilities as part of your toolkit, work independently on high-impact projects, move fast, and see your code in production- used by thousands of employees across the company.
What You'll Do-
Design, develop, and ship full-stack software solving real HR problems with measurable impact
-
Own your projects end-to-end: from understanding the problem, to writing the code, to deploying and maintaining the solution
-
Integrate modern AI/LLM capabilities into production applications to solve complex business problems
-
Work with HR partners, data engineers, and recruiting teams to understand problems and build solutions
-
Apply software engineering best practices including version control, CI/CD, and containerization
-
You've built and deployed something that other people actually used — in any stack — a live side project, a tool for your student org, freelance work, an open source contribution
-
Strong programming fundamentals and the ability to pick up new technologies quickly
-
Experience with web development stacks (TypeScript, React, or similar)
-
Good instincts for what's worth building. You think about impact, not just implementation
-
Self-starter with a strong bias for action — you take initiative and drive projects forward independently
-
Practical experience building with LLMs and AI agents
-
Excellent English. German is a plus
-
Familiarity with Docker, Kubernetes, and PostgreSQL is a plus
-
Degree in Computer Science or a related field is a plus
