San Diego, United States RedoxBlox Full time

About RedoxBlox, Inc.

Located in San Diego, Redoxblox is pioneering a new class of low-cost thermochemical energy storage systems (TCES) designed to accelerate industrial decarbonization and address long duration energy storage needs for the grid. The company’s TCES units store energy both chemically and as heat at very high temperatures that can be discharged continuously or as needed directly into industrial processes or as an energy source for electricity generation. The system can be fast charged when electricity prices are low or during surplus renewables generation and discharged as needed. Redoxblox is backed by Prelude Ventures, Khosla Ventures, Breakthrough Energy Ventures, Imperative Ventures, and New System Ventures.


Job Summary

We seek an innovative and skilled mechanical Engineer to play a pivotal role in designing and developing mechanical parts and systems that will comprise our thermochemical energy storage product.
