The Internship Recruiting Team is driven by the passion to recognize and develop emerging talent. Our year-round program places the best students in positions where they will grow technically, professionally, and personally through their experience working closely with their Manager, Mentor, and team. We are dedicated to providing an experience that allows the intern to experience life at Tesla by including them in projects that are critical to their team’s success.

As an Embedded Systems Software Engineering Intern on the Battery Management System (BMS) Team, you will have the opportunity to help deliver the high-quality software that enables our vehicles to be the best in the world. The team develops all the software required to make our products (past, present, and future) the best they can be by writing low-level firmware drivers, implementing software algorithms, and designing and building validation/test infrastructure. The BMS team places an especially large emphasis on ensuring we deliver a product that is safe, reliable, has high-quality user-facing indicators (i.e. range, SOC, power, etc.), and optimizes our overall customer experience. Your efforts with the team to engineer robust, scalable, and performant systems would directly contribute to meeting each of those goals. What You’ll Do

Your application for the BMS Internship will be considered across all opportunities for the team listed below:  
 
Firmware Development 

  • Develop low-level FW drivers to support new and existing microcontrollers 

  • Design and implement real-time software algorithms for features including state of charge (SOC), state of health (SOH), state of energy (SOE), power estimation, and physics models among various other features. 

  • Work with various cross-functional teams to develop requirements and test plans for new BMS features, diagnostics, algorithms, etc. 

Validation Infrastructure 

  • Develop scalable software-in-the-loop (SIL) and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) infrastructure for rapid prototyping, simulation, and validation 

  • Develop and enhance existing battery and hardware models to ensure simulations are representative of the real-world 

  • Design simulation frameworks that are flexible to being integrated both with other Tesla subcomponents as well as behavioral models for those subcomponents. 

What You’ll Bring

  • Currently working towards a degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field of study with a graduation date between April 2025- December 2026  

  • Proficiency in C and/or C++ as well as python 

  • Strong software fundamentals 

  • Experience with some or all the following concepts: 

  • Experience working with large-scale coding projects over an extended period
