Tesla posts job opening for next-generation Roadster production
"In this role, you will take large-scale manufacturing systems for new battery products and architectures from the early concept development stage through equipment launch, optimization, and handover to local operations teams. Battery development is at the heart of our company, and this is an exciting opportunity to work directly on the central challenges for the all-new Roadster product architecture while still in its early development stages,"
"The opening marks one of the first public hiring efforts explicitly tied to the next-gen Roadster, suggesting that the vehicle's development might be approaching its initial manufacturing phase. The fact that the new Roadster's first job opening is related to its battery is interesting, as the vehicle was unveiled with a range of 620 miles way back in late 2018."
A major demonstration is scheduled at the Tesla Design Studio in Hawthorne at year-end. Tesla opened its first job listing specifically for the next-generation Roadster, seeking a Manufacturing Engineer to develop and launch new battery manufacturing equipment. The role includes ideating equipment concepts, developing specifications, validating processes, addressing production bottlenecks, supporting factory acceptance tests, and collaborating with domestic and international sites with travel under 50 percent. The opening suggests the Roadster's development may be approaching initial manufacturing. The vehicle was originally unveiled with a 620-mile range and a proposed 200 kWh battery, double the Model S capacity.
