About this role
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.
Embedded Software Engineer – Power Electronics
We are at the precipice of a global energy transition. At Redwood Materials, we are moving beyond battery recycling to build the most advanced, circular energy ecosystem on the planet. Our goal is to move the industry away from static, hardware-heavy infrastructure toward agile, software-controlled energy assets.
While others build "black box" hardware, we are building software-defined power systems. Our Embedded Software team is responsible for the intelligence that drives our power stages, ensuring our energy storage solutions are safe, efficient, and capable of stabilizing the world's most demanding grids.
As an Embedded Software Engineer, you will be the architect of the real-time firmware that drives our power conversion units. You will live at the intersection of silicon and power, writing the low-level code that controls high-speed switching, manages thermal safety, and communicates with the broader site infrastructure. You will be responsible for bringing new products from white-space R&D to global scale, ensuring our code is as resilient as the hardware it controls.
Responsibilities will include:
• Real-Time Control Firmware: Design and implement bare-metal software applications for power electronics, focusing on high-resolution PWM generation, ADC synchronization, and complex timing logic.
• Low-Level Architecture: Develop and optimize drivers for microcontroller peripherals (SPI, CAN, Ethernet) and architect memory-efficient, multi-core processing strategies for real-time targets.
• Hardware-Software Synergy: Collaborate with power electronics controls engineers to translate controls theory into deterministic, high-performance code running on Cortex-R and Cortex-M architectures.
