Fullstack Engineer, Privacy Tools & Vehicle Data

What to Expect

Tesla vehicles are software-defined; they generate millions of data points that power features like Full Self-Driving, the touchscreen interface, and the Mobile App that doubles as your key.

With that capability comes responsibility, and Tesla is committed to transparency about the data vehicles collect. Owners have the right to get a copy of what their vehicle collects and to request a copy whenever they need it. Whether they’re reviewing vehicle operation data, understanding what happened during a safety critical event, or exercising their privacy rights, Tesla is dedicated to supporting vehicle owners through it all.

Our team builds the privacy systems and investigation tools that make this possible. We develop platforms that fulfill vehicle owner data requests, generate visual reports that help owners understand vehicle behavior during safety critical events, and support stakeholder teams in making Tesla vehicles even better and safer.

You'll work at the intersection of privacy compliance, vehicle telemetry, and safety; building tools that turn CAN signals into customer-facing reports and much more.

Design, develop, and deploy full-stack features for our core web applications; from backend APIs to frontend UI

Contribute to tools that support data transparency and help interpret safety critical event data

Build and maintain reliable data pipelines and APIs

Strong problem-solving skills, sense of ownership, and attention to detail

Ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical partners
