Software Engineer, Infrastructure Programs

As Tesla continues to vertically integrate our operations, Tesla's Infrastructure group is looking for aSoftware Engineerto help build the software backbone that powers how we design, execute, and deliver major capital projects - from concept through design, install, integration, ramp, and handover to operations.

As aSoftware Engineer, you will work closely with our Engineering, Construction, and Commissioning teams to build and scale a suite of internal web applications that connect data across engineering disciplines (electrical, instrumentation, mechanical) and the field. You'll own features end to end - designing data models, building APIs, and shipping polished, high-performance user interfaces that our engineers rely on daily to move projects faster and with higher quality.

• Build and own full-stack features using .NET, React, and TypeScript
• Design scalable databases and APIs to keep engineering data accurate and fast
• Guide technical decisions and architecture for a large, growing codebase
• Optimize performance across the entire stack-from database queries to UI rendering
• Write reliable, high-quality code backed by comprehensive testing
• Troubleshoot and fix production bugs, data issues, and performance bottlenecks

• Full-Stack Engineering: Deep experience building robust web applications across the full SDLC. Strong proficiency in C#/.NET and React/TypeScript (or comparable stacks), with modern frontend practices like state management and data-dense UIs
• Database Architecture: Solid relational database expertise (SQL Server/PostgreSQL, ORMs, query optimization). Experience designing zero-downtime schema migrations, live data backfills, and batch/streaming data pipelines (ETL/ELT)
• API Design & Integration: Proven ability to design, integrate, and document REST APIs. Experience connecting heterogeneous systems (third-party APIs, message queues, file drops) using resilient syncs, retries, and modern auth patterns (Azure AD, OAuth, OIDC)
• Quality & Performance: Strong testing discipline (unit, integration, E2E via Jest, Playwright,xUnit). Experience profiling and optimizing performance-critical tooling under heavy data volumes (memory allocations, query plans, render budgets)
• Cloud & DevOps: Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, containerized deployments (Docker), and cloud platforms (Azure preferred). Comfort working in fast-paced Agile/Scrum environments
• Applied AI & RAG Pipelines: Practical experience integrating LLMs into production applications, including prompt engineering, function/tool calling, vector search,chunking strategies, and retrieval-quality evaluation is preferred
• Advanced Distributed Systems: Deep knowledge of event-driven architectures and asynchronous messaging (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ) for handling high-throughput data, IoT integrations, or complex state synchronization across distributed systems is preferred

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

• 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
