Associate Software Engineer (m/f/d) - Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg

What to Expect

Our team builds internal software that helps Tesla plan, build, and operate construction projects at scale. We own a full-stack product used daily by project managers, engineers, and factory stakeholders.
As an Associate Software Engineer you will work as a full-stack engineer. You will ship features across the stack — frontend and backend — and work closely with product, UX, and other engineers to turn ambiguous business needs into clear, usable solutions. Early on you will contribute with strong guidance from senior engineers; over time you will own larger slices of features end to end, including API design, data model, UI, maintainability, performance, and usability.

Day to day you can expect to:

• Pair with product and end users to clarify requirements and edge cases
• Design and implement features across the stack (e.g. React/TypeScript on the client, Node/TypeScript services and APIs on the server)
• Improve existing flows based on user feedback, not only build greenfield work
• Raise the bar on engineering practice (code quality, testing, design consistency) as the product grows

What You’ll Do

• Collaborate with product managers and end users to analyze functional and non-functional business requirements
• Closely collaborate with UX specialists, backend engineers and product managers to design and implement features that are easy to use, efficient and scalable
• Continuously engage with users to gather feedback on existing solutions, and advocate for good usability across all the product
• Maintain and improve existing functionality, apply design changes to the architecture as it fits
• Continuously improve processes, standards and practices to assure highest product quality

What You’ll Bring

• Demonstrated expertise in software development fundamentals such as software design, algorithms, data structures, modularity, and code maintainability
• Bachelor’s degree or higher in an engineering field or equivalent experience and evidence of exceptional ability
• Extensive hands-on experience in software development utilizing React, TypeScript, and CSS
• High level of competency in React data-fetching libraries and common front-end development tools like Babel, Webpack, and NPM
