Redwood Materials
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, Redwood is delivering low‑cost, large‑scale energy storage and producing battery materials in the U.S. for the first time, all from batteries we already have.
Product Manager, Engineering Tools We’re looking for an experienced Product Manager, Engineering Tools to lead the roadmap, development, and administration of our CAD and PLM systems. This role will bridge engineering with key business functions such as supply chain, manufacturing, and accounting, ensuring product data flows seamlessly and supports cross‑functional operations. You will own the product lifecycle of engineering tools, manage system integrations, partner with implementation vendors, and drive program plans to support business growth and product development.
Responsibilities
Define and drive the roadmap for engineering tools, including CAD and PLM systems, aligning with business and engineering goals
Lead end‑to‑end product management for engineering tools, from discovery and requirement gathering to release planning and stakeholder communication
Manage the administration, configuration, and optimization of PLM infrastructure and integrations with adjacent systems (ERP, MES, WMS)
Act as the primary point of contact with implementation partners, driving program plans, phased rollouts, testing, training, and change management
Ensure engineering releases are accurately reflected in downstream systems impacting manufacturing, supply chain, finance/accounting, and maintenance/service
Collaborate closely with engineering, operations, and IT/compliance teams to deliver scalable and secure solutions
Define and monitor KPIs to measure system performance, data integrity, and business impact
Embed industry best practices, emerging technologies, and engineering data management requirements
Desired Qualifications
10+ years of experience in product management or equivalent roles, specifically focused on engineering tools (CAD, PLM)
Proven track record delivering and executing roadmaps for PLM platforms (e.g., NX, Teamcenter, 3DX, Arena, Agile)
Deep understanding of engineering release processes and their implications on supply chain, manufacturing, and finance/accounting
Strong understanding of CAD file formats with the ability to audit, repair, and validate migrated models to ensure dimensional accuracy and functionality
Strong experience managing PLM infrastructure and integrations across business systems
Solid understanding of engineering BOM (EBOM) and manufacturing BOM (MBOM) structures, including how CAD data flows into both
Demonstrated ability to lead large‑scale PLM implementations and manage vendor relationships and program execution
Excellent communication and systems thinking and analytical skills; ability to identify and solve complex cross‑functional problems
Preferred Qualifications
Hands‑on knowledge of CAD systems (e.g., SolidWorks, NX, CATIA) and their integration with PLM
Experience in high‑growth manufacturing or hardware‑centric companies
Physical Requirements
Sit, stand, crawl, crouch, walk, and climb a ladder, as needed
Lift and carry up to 50 lbs.
Use a computer mouse and keyboard
Look at a computer monitor
Speak and hear verbal communication
Working Conditions
Mostly office environment
Occasional work in hazardous industrial/construction areas with heavy machinery and potential chemical/metal/temperature exposure
Occasional work in outdoor construction areas with heavy machinery and dust
Participation in support team on‑call rotation for after‑hours support
Occasional domestic and international travel
The position is full‑time. Compensation will be commensurate with experience.
