Data is deeply embedded in the product and engineering culture at Tesla. We rely on data – lots of it – to improve autopilot, to optimize hardware designs, to proactively detect faults, and to optimize load on the electrical grid. We collect data from each of our cars, Superchargers, and energy storage devices to make these products better and our customers safer. The Fleet Analytics team is a central team that helps many teams leverage the data we collect. We help engineers through direct support by doing data analysis for them and through applications and tools so they can self-serve those analyses in the future. To do so, we leverage our internal data platform built on top of AWS, S3, Spark, Trino using open-source data science tools such as Jupyter notebooks, Pandas, Bokeh, Superset, and Airflow. Our work has a direct impact on Tesla's product and enables the work of hundreds of engineers across disciplines throughout the company.
