Reliability Engineer, Energy StorageActive$123K
The opportunity
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 2017, we’re delivering low-cost and large-scale energy storage and producing battery materials in the U.
What you'll do
Define and own the reliability strategy for hardware products with complex: printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs) and electromechanical systems
Plan and execute reliability tests such as HALT, thermal cycling, vibration,: drop, humidity, ingress protection (IP) testing, and power cycling
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define design-for-reliability: (DfR) requirements and drive root cause analysis for test failures
Track reliability KPIs and deliver reliability insights to guide design improvements and product decisions
Develop accelerated life test models and support FMEA and DFMEA processes
Analyze reliability data using Weibull, log-normal, and other statistical models to predict field performance
What they're looking for
- Work closely with engineering teams to establish reliability gates through program stages (A/B/C/D)
- Support failure analysis (FA) efforts using tools like X-ray,: cross-sectioning, and SEM/EDX to identify failure mechanisms in PCBAs
- Contribute to continuous improvement efforts across reliability processes,: lab capabilities, and test methodologies
- Author reports / document findings
