Electrical Engineer, Autopilot Hardware

The Autopilot Hardware team is responsible for designing the Controllers that deliver the autonomous driving capability of Tesla vehicles.  We design the complex high speed boards that delivers the compute performance while meeting the efficiency, cost, reliability and safety goals. The controller has to interface to all the sensory elements that provide the vital inputs to Autopilot to make the right decision.

The end result is a world-changing product delivering a superior user experience.
