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

  • Serve as primary administrator and technical owner of the SCADA platform —: gateway configuration and upgrades, project/version management, redundancy and clustering, store-and-forward, licensing, and disciplined backup/restore for SCADA servers and HMI infrastructure.

  • Own the SCADA database and historian tier: administer and tune the clustered back end, manage archival and retention, and protect data integrity and uptime for the historian and downstream data-lake feeds.

  • Maintain the plant-to-historian data path, including OPC connectivity, and: troubleshoot connectivity, performance, and data-quality issues across the OT pipeline.

  • Help design, build, and operate enterprise hybrid infrastructure across: datacenters and colocations; partner with the DevOps and data teams on cloud-resident workloads.

  • Design for resilience and high availability: multi-site and islanded architectures, failover, backups and tested restores, capacity planning, and disaster recovery for availability-critical industrial workloads.

  • Implement enterprise monitoring, alerting, and logging across the OT and: infrastructure estate, and produce as-built documentation, runbooks, and standards.

What they're looking for

  • Occasionally respond to after-hours production emergencies when necessary,: and travel periodically to Redwood sites (including San Francisco, South Carolina, Germany) and colocations.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a: related field, or equivalent experience, plus minimum 3 years in systems/infrastructure engineering.
  • Solid infrastructure skills: server virtualization (VMWare), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), enterprise storage, and core networking, including OT/IT segmentation.
  • Demonstrated grasp of enterprise resilience and high availability: backups and restore validation, multi-site/distributed-datacenter design, colocation, and disaster recovery — with the OT mindset that availability is paramount.
