Lead Battery Disassembly TechnicianActive$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

  • Serve as the floor-level subject matter expert on disassembly procedures,: high-voltage safety, LOTO, and rigging/lifting operations.

  • Train, mentor, and onboard new and existing technicians on standardized work: instructions, safety protocols, and proper use of tools and material handling equipment.

  • Verify the quality, safety, and completeness of teammates' disassembly and: rigging work, and coach corrective action where gaps are identified.

  • Monitors adherence to floor conduct standards (behavioral etiquette,: break/lunch scheduling, personal device use) and escalates repeated or serious violations to Supervision.

  • Acts as the floor-level point of contact for routine operational questions: when Supervision or Management is offsite, escalating decisions outside standard procedure.

  • Perform controlled disassembly of EV and stationary storage battery packs,: modules, and subcomponents in accordance with established work instructions and safety procedures.

What they're looking for

  • Safely isolate, and when deemed necessary, de-energize and verify absence of: voltage prior to handling high-voltage systems.
  • Disassemble battery systems down to module and component level, including: removal of BMS components, wiring harnesses, busbars, cooling systems, and structural elements.
  • Identify, sort, and route components for reuse, recycling, or disposal in: alignment with production and environmental standards.
  • Handle lithium-ion battery materials, including damaged or degraded units,: using approved containment and safety methods.
