Project Engineer, Energy Storage
About The Position
Redwood Materials is currently searching for a Project Engineer to join as an early member of a new engineering team working on our Battery Energy Storage System product line. You will own the full project lifecycle - from commercial scoping and BD handoff through engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning, and structured handoff to Operations and Maintenance - for a growing portfolio of utility-scale and behind-the-meter storage projects. You are the connective tissue between Business Development, Product Engineering, EPC partners, and customers. You drive schedule, manage risk, and ensure every project is delivered on time, on budget, and to spec. The ideal candidate is highly self-driven, adaptable to a startup environment, and comfortable operating where processes are still being built. You’re a doer and a builder, excited about working in a dynamic, fast-paced setting, and want to shape how Redwood delivers energy storage projects at scale.
