Job Description

Autopilot is of critical importance to Tesla's mission. It is safer, makes driving more enjoyable, and will ultimately deliver on the promise of self-driving cars. As a member of Tesla's Autopilot Simulation team, you will be in a unique position to accelerate the pace at which Autopilot improves over time. The main ways in which the simulation team realizes this is through building tools that enable Autopilot software developers to perform virtual test drives instead of real ones, testing all Autopilot software releases for regressive behavior and generating synthetic data sets for neural network training.


As a Software Engineer on the Autopilot Simulation team, you will contribute to the development of the simulation by building models and simulation tools that are capable to virtually prototype the system for fast, iterative development and robust validation. Your responsibilities will be split between feature creation and tool development to allow for quicker workflow across the Autopilot team.
