Musk seeks 'hardcore engineers'

The BBC has an article about Tesla:

Tesla chief executive Elon Musk (photo) is using Twitter to find engineers in an attempt to accelerate the company's project to build self-guiding cars. Musk appealed for "hardcore software engineers" to work on the firm's Autopilot software. Musk says he will be interviewing candidates personally. Successful engineering candidates will report directly to Musk, as the project is "super high priority". Coders need not have prior experience with cars, he tweeted.
Separately, Tesla announced a recall of all ninety thousand Model S cars sold globally after a report of a faulty seatbelt. Shares in the company fell nearly three percent following the announcement.
The Autopilot software is designed to let the Model S and Model X Tesla cars automatically steer, change lanes, and adjust speed in response to traffic.
"Ramping up the Autopilot software team at Tesla to achieve generalized full autonomy," he said.
Unlike Google, which wants fully-autonomous vehicles, Tesla wants to introduce features which take away the need for drivers to perform certain actions.
The firm's Autopilot software uses a combination of cameras, radar, sensors, and mapping data to found out where it is and navigate. When the car arrives at its destination, it can scan for a space and park itself.
Other car makers, including BMW and Volvo, are also developing autonomous features for their cars.

Rico says that Musk even showed up on The Big Bang Theory, looking to recruit Wolowitz...
