HybridFull-time
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.
What You'll Drive
- Product Marketing & GTM Strategy
- Develop and own the positioning and messaging architecture for each business line — recycling, materials, and Redwood Energy
- Lead go-to-market strategy for new product launches, partnership announcements, and commercial milestones
- Build audience intelligence: define customer personas, map decision journeys, and pressure-test messaging with commercial and BD teams
- Own competitive positioning and ensure the marketing function stays ahead of its competitive landscape
- Develop sales and enablement materials: one-pagers, pitch decks, capability briefs, RFP response frameworks
- Brand & Narrative Architecture
- Help set and protect the Redwood Materials brand voice, visual standards, and editorial POV across all channels and business lines
- Contribute to the development of a company-level story that unifies business lines under a coherent mission and positions Redwood as the defining company in domestic battery circularity
- Translate deeply technical work into clear, credible narratives for non-technical audiences without losing precision
- Team Leadership & System Building
- Build the operating system for the marketing function: editorial calendar, campaign frameworks, asset library, analytics stack
- Establish trust and direct working relationships with product, BD, policy, and communications counterparts
- Cross-Functional Integration
- Maintain alignment with leadership on strategic priorities and emerging narrative opportunities
- Partner with PR and communications to coordinate earned media, executive profiling, brand reputation and crisis response
Requirements

- Deep experience in technical product storytelling — clean energy, advanced manufacturing, industrial tech, defense tech, or similar domains
- Demonstrated ability to build and own full go-to-market strategy, including campaign execution
- Strong writing skills – can draft an executive brief, a customer-facing one-pager, and a conference keynote outline
- Experience marketing to enterprise procurement/BD audiences, government or policy stakeholders, and engineering talent
- Comfort operating without a large team or big agency support
What Success Looks Like
