Experience and Qualifications Required:

  • Previous experience of Facility installations and acceptance in a high-tech environment

The potential for foreign travel exists within this position with expectations of two-to-three-week periods carrying out factory visits (Japan, China, South Korea). This shall include assessment of facilities drawings and documents to ensure compliance.


Due to the challenging nature of the new Gigafactory development, this role requires an autonomous, self-starter with the ability to lead from the front. The successful applicant will be an effective communicator with a flexible and adaptable mindset, capable of working as part of a team.
