Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk is hiring and will be personally involved in the process.

Musk has taken to Twitter to detail the engineering positions: The hires will work in Tesla’s (TSLA) autonomous vehicle division and, more specifically, on its autopilot software, TechCrunch reported.

In a series of tweets, Musk said he wants his vehicles to “achieve generalized full autonomy” and sent an email address for resumes.
