About Redwood Materials

Redwood Materials is building the U.S. stockpile of critical materials and deploying large-scale energy storage systems that power data centers and the nation’s grid.

About the role

The Production Planner is responsible for ensuring continuity of material supply and production readiness for our Energy Operations in Sparks, NV. This role sits at the intersection of inbound logistics, NPI change management, supplier quality, and material planning — and is the operational continuity point that keeps builds on schedule and the floor free from supply-driven stoppages.

What they're looking for

  • Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain, Operations Management, or a related field, equivalent hands-on manufacturing experience considered
  • 0–5 years of experience in supply chain, production planning, receiving, or manufacturing operations, experience in energy storage, power electronics, or electronics manufacturing preferred
  • Direct WMS experience required, working knowledge of ERP/MRP systems
  • Ability to interpret supply chain and operational data to assess build risk, identify material shortfalls, and support planning decisions across a multi-component bill of materials
  • Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel, ability to build, own, and maintain reporting tools in a production environment
  • Ability to manage multiple concurrent priorities — inbound tracking, active NCRs, outbound execution, and NPI changes — in a fast-paced, deadline-driven operations environment
More about this role

About Redwood Materials

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. Today Redwood is the largest lithium-ion battery recycler in North America — recovering, refining, and redeploying critical minerals from end-of-life batteries back into the supply chain. On the energy side, Redwood has deployed the largest second-life battery project in the world, delivering power to AI data centers in months rather than years using proprietary energy architecture engineered entirely in-house. The company is profitable, the market it operates in is projected to grow 20 to 50 times over the next decade, and Redwood is the only company with the supply chain, the technology, and the operational scale to lead it.
