Job Description
What to Expect
The team is seeking a Polymer Materials Engineer to use their fundamental and deep understanding of chemistry, physics, and polymer science to provide solutions to some of Tesla’s toughest problems. This position will be a subject matter expert on interior soft trim at Tesla. This role will manage multiple projects that require the application of 1rst principles knowledge of materials to develop novel solutions needed to launch our products on time and with superior quality. Typical tasks involve material selection, authoring material standards, validating materials internally and with suppliers, managing Tesla Materials Documentation systems, root-cause-analysis, formulation of new polymers, researching new technologies to assess feasibility, and process optimization.
What You’ll Do
  • Work with design engineering to select and validate materials
  • Support process optimization for new materials
  • Assume the role as a subject matter expert for Interior Soft Trim at Tesla
  • Lead 1 or 2 development projects in support of our long-term goals of innovating through the use of advanced or novel materials.
  • Write material standards for new materials
  • Perform root-cause-analysis for difficult material issues
What You’ll Bring
  • Direct experience with developing interior surface materials such as textiles, synthetic leather and carpeting including foam backings, suspension layers, foam layers, consolidated layers, and coatings
  • Fundamental knowledge of polymers and polymer chemistry
  • Ability to learn quickly, adapt to an ever-changing environment, and lead projects
  • Polymer or Materials Engineering degree. Advanced degrees are nice but equivalent work experience can be as or more valuable.
  • Strong communication and organizational skills with ability to manage projects independently
