What will you do as a Tesla vehicle operator?

The job description says you’ll be driving Tesla EVs in a designated area for data collection.

This includes starting and stopping recording devices and debugging minor equipment/software when needed.

You’ll also need to analyze and report data collected during your shift. This includes providing feedback and suggesting improvements, which will be submitted through daily drive reports.

What qualifications do you need to be a Tesla vehicle operator?

You don’t need a degree, but you will need a clean driving record.

New drivers are unfortunately out of the running as Tesla is looking for people with a “minimum [of] four years of licensed driving experience.”

Aside from your driving skills, you’ll also need excellent written and spoken English and know your way around MS Office (Word, Outlook, Excel).

If you’ve used driver assistance systems before, that’s a big plus.

Last but certainly not least, you must be okay with a flexible schedule. Shifts can be during the day or at night, and weekend work could be included.

“Overtime is also typical for this position,” reads the job description.

How much does this pay?

While the job listings in Canada don’t disclose the pay, the company’s posting in the US has indicated an hourly wage of between US$18 to $48, including benefits.
