Redwood Materials was founded in 2017 by JB Straubel, co-founder and former CTO of Tesla, on a simple but radical idea: the critical minerals powering the energy transition already exist. They just need to come back. Today Redwood is the largest lithium-ion battery recycler in North America — recovering, refining, and redeploying critical minerals from end-of-life batteries back into the supply chain. On the energy side, Redwood has deployed the largest second-life battery project in the world, delivering power to AI data centers in months rather than years using proprietary energy architecture engineered entirely in-house. The company is profitable, the market it operates in is projected to grow 20 to 50 times over the next decade, and Redwood is the only company with the supply chain, the technology, and the operational scale to lead it.
Hardware Technical Program Manager, Energy Storage:
We are seeking a Hardware Technical Program Manager (TPM) to lead the development, testing, and manufacturing of complex, box-level electronics assemblies. You will own program execution from concept through production, coordinating across hardware engineering, validation, supply chain, and operations. This role is about making sure our hardware — from circuit boards and flex assemblies to enclosures, connectors, and integrated box builds — is designed for reliability, tested thoroughly, and built to scale.
Responsibilities Will Include:
- Drive end-to-end hardware program execution (requirements → design → validation → NPI → ramp)
- Lead cross-functional teams spanning mechanical, electrical, firmware, industrial design, test, and manufacturing engineering
- Plan and manage prototype and production builds, including materials, logistics, and factory readiness
- Oversee board and flex releases, system integration, and validation testing (DVT/PVT/MP builds)
- Partner with suppliers and contract manufacturers to drive DFM/DFT reviews, yield improvement, and issue resolution
- Maintain clear build plans, risk registers, and program dashboards; proactively manage schedule and resource risks
- Serve as the primary interface between Redwood engineering teams and external manufacturing partners
- Provide transparent updates to stakeholders and leadership, highlighting status, risks, and key decisions
Desired Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Mechanical, or related Engineering discipline (advanced degree a plus)
- 5+ years of experience in hardware program management, hardware engineering, or manufacturing operations
- Proven success driving NPI builds and scaling hardware programs to volume production
- Strong understanding of box-level assemblies (PCBs, flex circuits, harnessing, enclosures, thermal systems)
- Exceptional organizational, communication, and leadership skills; proven ability to thrive in high-ambiguity environments
- Willingness to travel to Redwood’s sites, suppliers, and contract manufacturers as needed
The position is full-time and located in San Francisco, CA. Compensation will be commensurate with experience.
In accordance with California pay transparency laws, the salary range for this position is listed below. Actual compensation may vary based on a variety of factors, including experience, education, and skills.
