Sendil Palani, Tesla's vice president of finance, has left the company after a 17-year tenure that began shortly after its near-bankruptcy in 2008. In a farewell post on X, he reflected on sleeping under his desk during the company's 'Tesla Deathwatch' and praised CEO Elon Musk's leadership. His departure adds to a wave of high-profile executive exits at the electric vehicle maker.
Thomas Dmytryk, the Tesla director responsible for developing the company's over-the-air update system and Robotaxi software backbone, has left after 11 years. His departure adds to an ongoing exodus of senior executives at the automaker. Dmytryk cited family priorities in his announcement.

Victor Nechita, Tesla's vehicle program manager for the Cybercab, has left the company after nearly nine years, just days after the first production unit rolled off the line at Gigafactory Texas. Nechita, who joined as a Model 3 intern in 2017, led the Cybercab from concept to initial production. His departure adds to a series of senior executive exits at Tesla amid preparations for volume production in April.
