Success metrics: by 30 days, you have visibility into current/upcoming projects and understand stakeholders and development processes; by 3 months, you proactively maintain the roadmap and manage auditor relationships while understanding cross-project dependencies; by 6 months, you spot planning conflicts before they escalate and own audit contract negotiation end-to-end.
Required: Bachelor's in Engineering, Computer Science, or related field (or equivalent); 5+ years in Technical Project Management or related advanced technical/research roles; excellent technical communication ability to distill complex information for any audience; deep command of project management methodologies and tools, especially in research-centric environments; comfort in fast-changing, ambiguous contexts; strong async communication; high ownership and autonomy; team-first mindset.
