2017 — 2017TeslaDesign for Reliability Intern

2017 — 2017

Palo Alto, California

Created a suspension model from first principles physics and frequency domain analysis that uses car accelerometer data to map road roughness. Used Model 3 data to verify and implement the model

Led two, 4 month long DFMEA’s on mechanical/electrical components including design failure analysis, co-ordinating design improvements, and leading all meetings with design, quality, and reliability engineers

Used python to analyze user data and drove increased accuracy in reliability specs across all charging products

Specified reliability targets and test times and analyzed failures for Model 3 components and superchargers for tests including PTCE, HTOE, and HTHE
