Manufacturing Engineer, Energy Storage
Redwood Materials, Inc., San Francisco, California, United States, 94199
Overview
About Redwood Materials Redwood is localizing a global battery supply chain that seamlessly integrates recovery, reuse, and recycling — keeping critical minerals in circulation and driving the energy transition. Founded in 2019, we’re delivering low-cost and large-scale energy storage and producing battery materials in the U.S. for the first time, all from batteries we already have. Position: Manufacturing Engineer, Energy Storage We are looking for a highly capable and hands-on Manufacturing Engineer to drive the development, optimization, and scaling of production lines for a complex high-voltage system. This system includes high-power electronics, thermal components, and electromechanical integration. You\'ll work closely with CMs, test engineering, and product design teams to scale cost-effective, high-yield processes.
Check all associated application documentation thoroughly before clicking on the apply button at the bottom of this description. Responsibilities
Define manufacturing process flows, build station-level process documentation, and create tooling and fixture requirements for product assembly and test
Partner with CMs to bring up new lines, run capacity models, and validate takt times, throughput, and line balance
Troubleshoot issues on the line and drive corrective actions for yield, first-pass success rate, and build quality
Own DFM and DFT efforts, providing clear, actionable feedback to engineering
Collaborate with quality and test engineering to ensure process stability, traceability, and defect containment
Analyze production data and develop dashboards to identify trends, bottlenecks, and cost-reduction opportunities
Develop ramp plans and execution tracking for NPI and scale transitions
Qualifications
B.S. in Mechanical, Electrical, or Manufacturing Engineering (or related)
3+ years of experience in production support or NPI for high-power electronics or electro-mechanical assemblies
Strong technical knowledge of SMT, reflow, box build, mechanical assembly, and HV safety processes
Ability to write and maintain SOPs, work instructions, and training documents
Experience working with CMs on high-volume production environments
Familiarity with MES systems, Python/SQL for data extraction, or Lean Six Sigma certification
Physical Requirements
Ability to perform the essential job functions safely and effectively in accordance with applicable standards, including meeting productivity standards
Ability to maintain regular, punctual attendance
Working Conditions
Environment, such as office or outdoors
Ability to work in challenging conditions which may include exposure to noise, dust, chemicals, and temperature extremes, while protected by PPE, for extended periods
Essential physical requirements, such as climbing, standing, stooping, or typing
Occasional work weekends, nights, or on-call as a regular part of the job
Salary: $120,000 - $180,000 USD. The position is full-time. Compensation will be commensurate with experience.
Redwood Materials is an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or protected veteran status.
