• Translate project management concepts into accessible language for diverse audiences both within and outside of IT.

• Candidate must be able to obtain and maintain a DOE Security Clearance.
• 4+ years of project management experience; or an equivalent combination of education and experience directly related to IT project delivery.
• Demonstrated ability to manage projects of low‑to‑moderate complexity through the full project lifecycle—initiation, planning, execution, monitoring, and closeout.
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to maintain project plans, track milestones, manage scope, and keep teams aligned with program controls and governance expectations.
• Clear, professional communication skills—able to translate technical concepts for non‑technical audiences and engage effectively with functional leads, business owners, and program leadership.
• Excellent communication and leadership skills with demonstrated problem‑solving and conflict‑resolution ability.
• Working knowledge of IT environments and software development methodologies, tools, and processes. Ability to produce professional project charters, project plans, and other technical and project documents.

Preferred Qualifications

• Possession of an active DOE/DoD clearance within the past two (2) years is preferred.
