Excellent problem-solving skills, keen attention to detail, ability to work independently or collaboratively in a fast-paced setting, plus familiarity with OSHA safety standards and alignment with Tesla’s innovative, sustainability-focused culture
Full-time availability with flexibility for weekends, early mornings, on-call duties during peak seasons or weather events; proficiency with electric/battery-powered tools preferred, along with basic understanding of irrigation systems, waste sorting, landscape design tools, or enthusiasm for integrating smart technology (e.g., soil sensors, automated systems)
