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.

We move fast. Speed beats polish. We use every tool, especially AI, to accelerate decisions, execution, and learning.
Grit
We do hard things because they matter. We keep pushing when others quit.
Ownership
We own outcomes, not tasks. We see problems, fix them, and follow through across functions.
Signal
We cut through noise. We communicate clearly and directly so decisions are fast and execution stays sharp.
Craft
We take pride in our work. Quality, care, and precision are the standard.

Background in metals, recycling, mining, or heavy industry
