Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related engineering discipline with 3 years of experience in manufacturing project engineering, industrial project engineering, or a related field OR 7 years of hands-on manufacturing or industrial project engineering experience in lieu of a degree.
• Demonstrated experience translating technical or operational requirements into Statements of Work, scopes of work, or building plans in a manufacturing, industrial, or construction setting.
• Proven ability to build and manage project schedules, track deliverables, and drive accountability across subcontractors, equipment vendors, and internal engineering teams on concurrent projects.
• Working knowledge of manufacturing systems, automation equipment, and controls infrastructure — sufficient to coordinate equipment procurement, installation, and commissioning activities with technical engineering teams.
• Experience tracking equipment procurement, delivery, and installation within a project controls or manufacturing project management context.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to convey technical requirements clearly to contractors, engineers, and leadership stakeholders.
• Highly organized with strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple concurrent projects and deadlines in a fast-paced startup environment.
• Strong self-starter with the ability to work independently and as a contributing team member in a mission-driven environment.

Responsibilities

• Translate manufacturing and program requirements into clearly scoped Statements of Work (SOWs), defining deliverables, responsibilities, timelines, and acceptance criteria for capital, facility, and production line projects.
• Build, maintain, and actively drive project schedules — identifying critical path activities, tracking milestones, flagging risks, and ensuring on-time delivery across concurrent manufacturing buildout projects including automated production lines, test stands, energetic operations facility upgrades, and capability expansion efforts.
• Coordinate and oversee the installation and commissioning of manufacturing equipment, automation systems, robotic work cells, and controls infrastructure — serving as the on-site technical point of contact during construction and equipment installation phases.
• Track and manage equipment procurement, delivery, and installation status, maintaining accurate logs and communicating proactively with project teams, engineering stakeholders, and leadership.
• Coordinate with subcontractors, suppliers, field crews, and internal engineering teams to ensure scope, schedule, and quality requirements are understood and met; attend site walks, owner meetings, and coordination calls as the reliable point of contact for project status and technical clarifications.
• Maintain complete project documentation including SOWs, submittals, RFIs, meeting minutes, change orders, progress reports, and equipment commissioning records.
• Support procurement and contract administration processes, reviewing bids and scopes against program and manufacturing requirements; contribute project controls insight and lessons learned to future facility and manufacturing investments.
• Collaborate cross‑functionally with Manufacturing Engineering, Automation & Controls, Process Engineering, Safety, and Compliance to ensure manufacturing infrastructure projects are built to operational and regulatory requirements — including OSHA, ITAR, and hazardous environment standards.
