Redwood Materials is building grid-scale Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), and this role owns the electrical foundation of those projects before detailed design and construction begin. As the Electrical Engineer on the Energy Storage Project, you turn early, ambiguous electrical inputs into a buildable concept, a defensible AC/DC design basis, and a clear interconnection and permitting path. You support active customer pursuits alongside the Business Development and Product teams - screening interconnection viability, developing preliminary single line diagrams, and hardening the electrical scope and cost basis behind proposals - then hand a gap-closed electrical package to the detailed design team and its Electrical Engineer of Record. The work rewards people who move fast without sacrificing the depth that sets projects up to succeed. Responsibilities will include: • Lead the electrical front-end scope for assigned early-phase pursuits, coordinating across Business Development, the Product team, and engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) engineering and project controls, and serving as Business Development's electrical technical support for scope, cost, schedule, and contract exhibits • Develop concept and preliminary electrical designs - site layouts and single line diagrams - integrating system architecture, inverter and medium-voltage transformer configuration, and DC block arrangement with site constraints • Establish the electrical Basis of Design and design criteria, including AC/DC architecture, medium-voltage collection, grounding and bonding, protection and coordination, metering, and auxiliary and balance-of-plant power • Perform screening-level power system studies such as load flow, short circuit, and protective device coordination to size major equipment, set voltage classes and ratings, and define the study scope for detailed design • Support early utility and grid operator interconnection strategy - identifying viable pathways and timelines from site location, front- or behind-the-meter configuration, and point of interconnection - and deliver electrical feasibility studies that confirm interconnection viability and equipment siting as a go/no-go input • Establish the electrical code and standards basis, document the compliance framework for detailed design, and develop alternative means and methods or performance-based design options in coordination with fire and life-safety requirements • Drive the electrical information-request checklist to closure and deliver the electrical scope and Basis of Design package as the formal handoff to detailed design, including the interconnection path, long-lead item register, and open-items register Desired Qualifications: • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from an ABET-accredited program, or equivalent demonstrated ability; a Master's degree is a plus • A minimum of 8 years in solar, energy storage, or microgrid work, including front-end, conceptual, owner's engineering, or FEED electrical design on utility-scale or industrial battery energy storage projects • Deep understanding of grid-scale energy storage and electrical balance-of-plant equipment - inverters, medium-voltage transformers, switchgear, DC combiners, collection systems, grounding, and protection - and of AC/DC power conversion and medium- and high-voltage systems • Strong knowledge of BESS electrical design, utility and grid operator interconnection requirements, and utility-scale project execution, with the ability to develop preliminary single line diagrams and screening-level studies • Familiarity with relevant codes and standards, including NEC 705 and 706, IEEE 1547, UL 9540, UL 9540A, UL 1973, UL 1741, NFPA 855, and IEC, and the ability to translate them into design criteria and a Basis of Design • Proficiency in design and analysis tools such as AutoCAD, Revit, Bluebeam, and ETAP or SKM, with the ability to produce concept layouts and technical exhibits quickly • Professional Engineer (PE) license in Electrical Engineering preferred; project management or EPC experience coordinating multi-disciplinary scopes within architecture/engineering or design engineering firms is a plus • Strong communication skills - verbal, written, and through drawings - with excellent attention to detail and the ability to prioritize and execute in parallel in ambiguous, fast-moving environments • A passion for sustainability and making the world a better place!
