Senior Sourcer

About Redwood MaterialsRedwood 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. Position SummaryRedwood's sourcers do not work the easy reqs. They work the roles that are highest leverage for the business and hardest to fill in the market: senior process and chemical engineers, controls and automation leads, plant and construction leadership, and specialized scientific and supply chain roles. These are searches where the passive candidate pool is small, the competing offers are strong, and the difference between a filled req and a stalled one is the quality of the outreach and the depth of the market map.You will own the top of the funnel for a defined set of critical reqs across the entirety of Redwood Materials spanning ESS and EPC. You will partner with a recruiter and hiring manager on each, build the search strategy, run the outreach, and hand off engaged, qualified candidates. You will be measured on qualified submittals, response rates, and the share of hires that came from your pipeline.
