Summary
The company accused its ex-employee, Alexander Yatskov, of transferring confidential information from Tesla's network to his personal laptop.Yatskov was hired in January to work on Dojo, the supercomputer Tesla is building to train its self-driving software. In 2011, while he was working in Massachusetts, he earned a master's degree in engineering management from Tufts University.Yatskov's LinkedIn page shows him still working at Juniper Networks, but it seems unlikely that there were two thermal engineers named Alexander Yatskov in Manteca, California. Perhaps he just didn't update his LinkedIn page when he started working at Tesla.But I wanted to make sure—and to give Yatskov a chance to comment for this story.
