Founded in 2017,</strong><strong> 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.</strong></p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div><p><strong>Software Engineering Lead - Warehouse ERP Systems</strong></p> <p><span lang="EN-US" data-contrast="none">We're replacing our legacy ERP and WMS with custom systems at North America's largest battery recycler. This role owns the product definition for a new warehouse management system - determining what gets built, why, and in what order through continuous stakeholder discovery across operations, finance, and logistics. You'll translate ambiguous business problems into clear, prioritized engineering work while keeping scope minimal and justified. The immediate focus is the 2026 cutover; after go-live, you'll help define what this product area becomes as the company scales.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span></p> <p><strong><span lang="EN-US" data-contrast="none">Essential Duties and Responsibilities:</span></strong></p> <ul> <li><span data-contrast="none">Embed with warehouse operators, finance, and operations stakeholders, mostly on-site, to define what the WMS must do at cutover. Make scope decisions that keep the system minimal; every requirement justifies its existence.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335557856":16777215,"335559740":300}"> </span></li> <li><span data-contrast="none">Own product outcomes for the WMS initiative. Success is measured by whether the system solves actual business problems, not by feature count or on-time delivery alone.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335557856":16777215,"335559740":300}"> </span></li> <li><span data-contrast="none">Map and manage a complex stakeholder landscape spanning most of the recycling organization.
