Who We’re Looking For

A proactive, technically fluent PMO leader who can turn vision into scoped, executable programs in dynamic, regulated environments. You’ve likely been a technical lead or systems engineer who moved into program management, and you’re comfortable representing customers while aligning teams to one shared, company-wide vision. You ask great questions, push decisions forward, and build clear plans that keep exceptional engineers informed and engaged.

You thrive in R&D - where the end solution isn’t fully known at the start—and you can define scope, iterate with customers, and translate ambiguity into a crisp plan, schedule, and delivery cadence. You love building software to support hardware/embedded systems, and you respect the rigor of regulated customers while balancing the pace and realities of a startup.

What You’ll Do

Program Leadership & Governance

• Stand up and mature PMO practices (charters, SoWs, WBS, RAID, RACI, change control, comms plans, dashboards).
• Drive decisions proactively; surface tradeoffs early; never “kick the can.”
• Build and manage integrated master schedules with critical path, dependencies, and resource views.

Customer Representation & Stakeholder Management

• Represent assigned customers/programs with a “one‑team” mentality—advocating for the customer while aligning to the broader company vision.
• Establish clear communication cadences, progress updates, and executive-ready reporting.

Scope, Requirements & Systems Thinking

• Convert customer needs into software/hardware/embedded requirements, acceptance criteria, and traceability (V&V).
• Define scope from ambiguity; create baselines; manage changes with discipline.
• Partner with systems engineers on interfaces, integration plans, and test strategies.

Agile Delivery & Tooling

• Stand up Jira projects/boards, workflows, and metrics; run Agile ceremonies across cross-functional teams.
• Use Jira (required) and MS Project/Smartsheet (strong preference) to align sprint goals with milestone deliverables.

Engineering Integration & Quality

• Coordinate integration testing across software, firmware, and hardware; manage entry/exit criteria for phases and gates.
• Ensure due diligence and documentation align with clients’ regulatory frameworks (e.g., quality systems, auditability).

Leadership & Team Enablement

• Mentor PMs/ICs; build healthy execution habits; promote transparency and accountability.
• Create templates, playbooks, and workflows that scale as new customers and projects launch.

What Makes You a Great Fit

• Technical foundation (e.g., Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent experience) and the ability to break down complex technologies and projects.
• Hands-on experience delivering programs that combine software + hardware/embedded components.
• Strong Jira and Agile planning experience (required).
• Scheduling expertise in Microsoft Project and/or Smartsheet (high preference), including WBS, dependencies, and critical path.
• Experience defining scope from ambiguity and converting customer needs to actionable requirements.
• Proven cross-functional leadership across engineering, product, QA/validation, and operations.
• Clear, concise communication; excellent stakeholder management; proactive issue/risk management.

Nice to Have

• PMP/PgMP/PMI certification (strong plus, not strictly required).
• Prior experience in R&D, tech transfer, operations demos, or government/enterprise programs (e.g., NASA or tier‑1 product orgs).
• Exposure to regulated processes (e.g., phase‑gate, requirements traceability, verification/validation best practices).
• Familiarity with Confluence, requirements tools, and test management systems.
