Job description

DoD Manufacturing Project Manager (ONSITE) needed for a contract opportunity with Yoh Staffing’s client working in Austin, TX.

• Pay Rate: $70-79/hr
• HYBRID

What You’ll Be Doing:

• DIBI is seeking a Senior Project Manager to lead execution of a high-priority Additive Manufacturing Sprint supporting the U.S. Navy.
• This is a hands-on project leadership role responsible for coordinating a complex, fast-moving, cross-functional team and keeping the project on track across scope, schedule, budget, deliverables, risks, and stakeholder expectations.
• The primary responsibilities will include owning day-to-day project execution, coordinating the cross-functional team, translating the technical scope into an executable project plan, managing milestones and deliverables, tracking risks and issues, coordinating with the Navy and other stakeholders, and providing clear status reporting and escalation to DIBI leadership.

Required:

• We are looking for a senior, hands-on project manager with 5+ years of experience managing complex technical programs, ideally in a defense, federal, aerospace, engineering, advanced manufacturing, or similarly complex environment.
• Exceptional project scheduling and organization skills, including developing and maintaining detailed project plans, tracking milestones and dependencies, coordinating deliverables, and keeping work on schedule.
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, including coordinating with and keeping stakeholders informed.
• Responsive to direction with strong initiative and follow-through, able to take direction and priorities from the project lead while independently anticipating needs, identifying gaps, solving problems, and taking action to keep the project moving.
• Experience managing large, cross-functional projects with multiple stakeholders and competing priorities
• Experience working directly with federal/government customers, preferably DoD or Navy
• The ability to take an ambiguous or evolving objective and turn it into a clear execution plan with owners, milestones, and accountability
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, including the ability to work with senior leaders, technical experts, government stakeholders, and external partners
• Strong project controls experience, including schedules, deliverables, risks/issues, dependencies, resources, and budget
• Experience with project management tools such as Smartsheet, Salesforce, MS Project, Jira, Monday.com, or similar platforms
• PMP certification strongly preferred; Agile/Scrum experience is a plus
• The ability to operate independently, identify and resolve issues, facilitate decisions, and keep a fast-moving project on track
• Ability to travel up to approximately 30% as needed
• Additive manufacturing experience would be a plus, but it is not required. We are more focused on finding a strong project leader who has experience managing technically complex work in a federal/defense or similar environment.

What’s In It For You?
