Systems Design Engineer, Factory Systems Modeling McCarran, NV
Redwood Materials, Inc., Reno, NV, United States
Software Engineer, Factory Systems Modeling
McCarran, NV
About Redwood Materials
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.S. for the first time, all from batteries we already have.
Software Engineer, Factory Systems Modeling
We are seeking a Systems Design Engineer to develop models for our battery refining and materials production processes. You'll apply first‑principles modeling in custom software to create plant-scale models that maximize efficiency, detect equipment failures, and power soft sensors. The goal: design the world's most optimal factories through cross‑functional collaboration with stakeholders and design teams.
This role is based in Reno, NV and is a fully onsite role.
Responsibilities will include:
Implement complex system models integrating mechanical, thermal, chemical, and control theories in custom software
Design and implement control algorithms that optimize plant operations
Own and maintain controls‑plant model software in the loop tests
Navigate cross‑functional engineering teams to gather requirements and deliver solutions
Integrate live factory data into models to detect equipment anomalies
Optimize plant efficiency through modeling support
Apply knowledge of motors, pumps, sensors, actuators, and thermodynamic systems to accurately model plant behavior
Design high‑level control strategies informed by simulation and data analytics
Qualifications:
M.S. in Mechanical/Chemical/Electrical Engineering, Physics, or equivalent experience
2+ years in Systems Design Engineering and first‑principles modeling, preferably with multi‑physics simulations
Proficiency in Python and/or simulation software with functional software engineering skills
Strong grasp of mechanical, electrical, and thermodynamic fundamentals
Experience with complex system design
Self‑motivated, hands‑on attitude with willingness to contribute at all levels
Passion for sustainability and making the world better
The position is full‑time. Compensation will be commensurate with experience.
