Other Builders & Innovators Charleston, South Carolina   About Red Metals Red Metals is rethinking the domestic copper supply chain at a pivotal moment in American industry. Copper underpins electrification, data centers, and defense systems. U.S. demand already exceeds domestic supply, and the gap is widening as grid modernization, the energy transition, and buildout of AI infrastructure accelerate. We are building a faster, cleaner, and more resilient model for this critical industrial layer in the United States.   The Role We have specific roles listed where we have a clear idea of the organization's immediate needs. But we're building quickly, and exceptional people don't always fit neatly into a predefined role. We will opportunistically hire additional roles or create space for strong talent to join the organization. At this early stage, roles can be ambiguous, and they will evolve over time. Joining Red Metals early also provides huge opportunities for growth that often don't exist at more established companies. If you have skills that could help advance our mission, we'd love to hear from you.

Bias for Action We move fast. Speed beats polish. We use every tool, especially AI, to accelerate decisions, execution, and learning. 2. Grit We do hard things because they matter.

We communicate clearly and directly so decisions are fast and execution stays sharp. 5. Craft We take pride in our work. Quality, care, and precision are the standard.   What We’re Looking For - People who combine ownership with a low-ego, team-first mentality - Desire for building and learning while working on a challenging and important mission - Ability to operate with incomplete information and make sound decisions quickly Strong Pluses: - Startup or early-stage experience - Background in metals, recycling, mining, or heavy industry - Demonstrated ability to operate in a fast-moving environment - Ability to leverage AI tools to accelerate work and expand impact   Why Red Metals - Build a company from zero, not optimize an existing system - Real ownership and meaningful responsibility from day one - Work on a problem that matters: rebuilding U.S. industrial capacity - Small team, high trust, no bureaucracy   Location This role is based in Charleston, South Carolina and requires on-site work.
