Cathode Design EngineerActive$42K–$104K
The opportunity
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.
What you'll do
Conduct design of experiments to gather relevant data to guide scale-up: design, inform process parameter tolerances, improve material performance, and reduce production costs
Provide engineering expertise (such as mass and energy balance, flowsheet,: and process simulation) to identify, develop, and implement process technologies for the scale-up and production of cathode active materials (CAM)
Interface with equipment suppliers through concept development, system: design, detailed design, procurement, installation, and acceptance testing
Support development of the technology roadmap to align with business strategy: and customer needs while defining and leading technology projects
Create intellectual property (IP) and collaborate with the legal team to write and file patent applications
Provide technical expertise to commercial and business development teams,: senior management, and key stakeholders
What they're looking for
- Advanced degree (BS or MS) in an engineering or material science discipline
- Evidence of exceptional ability, including strong understanding of: engineering fundamentals and demonstrated ability to leverage this understanding to solve challenging problems
- –5 years of industrial experience in relevant areas such as process: development and scale-up, process engineering, and technology management
- Technical expertise in inorganic materials processes including solids: handling, hydrometallurgy, calcination, or chemical processing
