Come join us as we build the power system of the future with clean and sustainable energy. Come help the Tesla team design, model, and integrate our solar-battery-charging ecosystem to enable this green energy transformation Tesla is looking for Power Systems Engineers to build on our in-house modeling and hardware-in-loop (HIL) testing capability for our energy storage, solar, and electric charging systems at mass scales. You will interface with utilities, independent power providers, and system operators in technical power systems discussions, and influence our systems design to facilitate scaling on the grid. You will be responsible for developing detailed models of our technology and controls strategies operating on the grid and forming microgrids of different sizes. The role is diverse, fast-paced, and spans multiple levels of electrical, controls, firmware design, and grid-operations. * Act as the technical representative for power flow, short circuit, and dynamic modeling discussions with customers. You must show the ability to articulate power systems analyses/results and the interaction of Tesla's technology with the grid * Continue to increase our in-house capability to model Tesla's product in power systems analysis software, to include microgrid applications with various interconnected resources and larger "macro" grid applications * Work with both the product design team and the firmware/software teams to keep models current with the technology roadmap * Work with the product design team to feed power systems requirement into the product specification to influence system architecture * Work with customers and business development team to create models to represent the Tesla Energy system in power flow and dynamic modeling software tools * Expert level knowledge of at least three power system modelling tools: PSCAD, PSS\E, PSLF, DIgSILENT, PowerWorld * Experience with modelling and simulations of inverter based generation * Experience with performance of interconnection and engineering studies like stability, protection coordination, harmonics, insulation coordination, arch flash, and ground grid analyses * Strong working knowledge of control theory, ability to implement PID control * Degree in Electrical Engineering with power systems focus or equivalent experience * Ability to work cross functionally with customers, engineering, business development, and deployment personnel * Direct experience with North American ISO is a plus * Experience with HIL tools (RTDS, Typhoon, OPAL-RT) is a plus
