Internship

Job Description

Consider before submitting an application:  

This position is expected to start around August or September 2025 and continue through the Fall term (ending approximately December 2025) or continuing into Winter/Spring 2026 if available and there is an opportunity to do so. We ask for a minimum of 12 weeks, full-time and on-site, for most internships. Our internship program is for students who are actively enrolled in an academic program. Recent graduates seeking employment after graduation and not returning to school should apply for full-time positions, not internships. 

As an Integration Engineer Intern within our Autonomy teams, you will play a crucial role in advancing our AI platform's integration with vehicles and humanoid robotics. You'll be at the forefront of developing and implementing features that leverage the power of Tesla AI, ensuring seamless functionality across various platforms. Your responsibilities will encompass software development, integration, optimization, and collaboration across multiple functions to achieve our goals. In addition, the team plays a key role in developing safety and reliability specifications for driverless vehicle operation. You would be designing fail-safe mechanisms and redundant architectures to mitigate risks and minimize downtime in autonomous driving scenarios. The team contributes to the development and deployment of new features on both vehicles and robotics platforms. Join us in shaping the future of mobility and robotics technology.
