Overview
- Raj Jegannathan confirmed his departure in a LinkedIn post, ending a 13-year tenure at the automaker.
- His most recent role spanned IT, AI infrastructure, business apps and information security, and he was tapped last year to lead North American sales after Troy Jones left.
- People familiar with the matter told reporters he had not been active on Tesla’s internal systems since late January and had stepped back from close work with the sales team for months.
- Bloomberg reported that Tesla has moved Joe Ward, its EMEA vice president, into a broader role overseeing global sales, service and delivery.
- The leadership change comes as Tesla reports a first-ever annual revenue decline in 2025 and multi-market delivery drops, extending a stretch of senior-level departures.
