Full Job Description

What to Expect

We are building a general-purpose humanoid robot from the ground up, and thermal performance is a hard constraint — not an afterthought. As a Robotics Thermal Design Engineer, you will own the thermal design and analysis of joint actuator and controller subsystems, from early concept through hardware validation and into production. You will work at the intersection of mechanical, electrical, and controls engineering, ensuring that actuators operate reliably across all mission profiles and duty cycles in a highly constrained form factor.

What You'll Do

Own the end-to-end thermal design and analysis for joint actuator and embedded controller assemblies, from concept through production
Develop and maintain steady-state and transient thermal models (CFD/FEA) and correlate them with data from physical hardware tests
Define thermal requirements, margins, and derating curves in collaboration with mechanical, power electronics, and firmware teams
Conduct hands-on thermal characterization of hardware using thermocouple instrumentation, IR thermography, and calorimetry
Select and qualify thermal interface materials, potting compounds, and adhesives for demanding mechanical and environmental conditions
Identify and communicate thermal risks early in the design cycle, driving mitigations across current and future platforms
Support design reviews, DVT/PVT builds, and failure analysis for thermal-related issues

What You'll Bring

Degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field, or equivalent experience
Strong fundamentals in heat transfer — conduction, convection, and radiation — applied to real hardware in constrained form factors
Proficiency in CFD/FEA thermal simulation tools (Ansys Icepak, Fluent, COMSOL, or equivalent) and a track record of correlating results to physical test data
Experience with thermal management of power electronics — PCB-level heat spreading, TIM selection, heatsink and housing interface design, junction temperature estimation
Comfortable working in a fast-paced, hardware-iterative environment where designs evolve quickly and ambiguity is the norm
Strong cross-functional communication skills — you'll regularly work across mechanical, electrical, firmware, and manufacturing teams
Advanced degrees preferred

Compensation and Benefits

Benefits

Along with competitive pay, as a full-time Tesla employee, you are eligible for the following benefits at day 1 of hire:

Medical plans > plan options with $0 payroll deduction
Family-building, fertility, adoption and surrogacy benefits
Dental (including orthodontic coverage) and vision plans, both have options with a $0 paycheck contribution
Company Paid (Health Savings Accounts) HSA Contribution when enrolled in the High-Deductible medical plan with HSA
Healthcare and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)
401(k) with employer match, Employee Stock Purchase Plans, and other financial benefits
Company paid Basic Life, AD&D
Short-term and long-term disability insurance (90 day waiting period)
Employee Assistance Program
Sick and Vacation time (Flex time for salary positions, Accrued hours for Hourly positions), and Paid Holidays
Back-up childcare and parenting support resources
Voluntary benefits to include: critical illness, hospital indemnity, accident insurance, theft & legal services, and pet insurance
Weight Loss and Tobacco Cessation Programs
Tesla Babies program
Commuter benefits
Employee discounts and perks program

Expected Compensation

$108,000 - $264,000/annual salary + cash and stock awards + benefits
