Job Description:

What you will Be Doing:

As a Manufacturing Controls Engineer, you’ll play a key role in sustaining, improving, and developing advanced automation systems that assemble and validate Tesla’s next-generation products.

This role demands strong PLC and controls fundamentals, hands-on debugging skills, and a drive to push process efficiency in a high-complexity, high-precision environment. The ideal candidate thrives in ambiguity, acts autonomously, and has a deep technical understanding of automation that supports electro-mechanical assemblies.

• Lead controls engineering activities across assembly and end-of-line validation

• Develop and sustain PLC and HMI programs (Siemens TIA Portal or Beckhoff TwinCAT) that ensure high equipment uptime, safety compliance, and operator efficiency

• Collaborate with test and equipment engineering to integrate new test sequences, data interfaces, and product change requirements into existing automation

• Drive process improvement using data-driven insights (OEE, downtime, MTBF) to optimize cycle time, quality, and safety

• Troubleshoot PLCs, servo drives, robots, and field networks (EtherCAT, Profinet, or CANOpen) in real time to minimize production downtime.
   

What we are looking for:

• 5+ years of professional experience

• Degree in Electrical, Controls, or Mechatronics Engineering, or equivalent experience

• 3+ years of hands-on experience in controls engineering for automated manufacturing or electro-mechanical assembly systems

• Proficiency in IEC 61131-3 PLC programming languages, especially structured text and ladder logic

• Experience with Siemens TIA Portal (S7 series PLCs) / Beckhoff TwinCAT, Safety PLCs (SIMATIC Safety or TwinSAFE), and HMI/SCADA (WinCC, TwinCAT HMI, or Ignition), OPC UA

• Strong knowledge of motion control, servo systems, Conveyors, VFDs and fieldbus communications (EtherCAT, Profinet, DeviceNet)

• Demonstrated ability to perform root cause analysis and implement permanent corrective actions under fast-paced, high-stakes conditions

• Understanding of automation architecture, component selection (sensors, drives, relays, circuit protection), and design for maintainability

• Requirement configuration, code configuration tools (DOORs, JAMA etc.).
