ABOUT US

Reframe Systems is a Physical AI and robotics company on a mission to make high-performance housing attainable and abundant in the communities where people want to live. Through our vertically integrated delivery model and highly automated microfactories, we deliver climate-resilient homes and buildings with greater speed and predictability than traditional construction.

Our volumetric modular buildings are produced in our Andover, MA microfactory, with a growing pipeline across North America and a new microfactory on the way. We are building a system that balances repeatability with site-responsive design, enabling homes adaptable to each site, community, and customer need. Our cross-disciplinary team brings together architecture, robotics, design engineering, software, factory operations, and field delivery to change how housing gets delivered.

We’re reimagining the future of housing through a smarter and more sustainable system that empowers people to live better. Come build it with us.

The Project Manager is responsible for planning, coordinating, and executing modular construction projects from concept through installation. This includes managing budgets, schedules, subcontractors, internal cross-functional teams, and client relationships. Unlike traditional construction PM roles, this position requires working within an evolving product ecosystem, contributing to process development, and supporting continuous improvement efforts across design, manufacturing and field operations.

• Lead the full project lifecycle. From preconstruction and design coordination through factory production, site preparation, installation, and project closeout.

• Develop and manage project budgets, schedules, logistics plans, and resource allocations.

• Oversee procurement, contracts, subcontracts, and change management workflows.

• Coordinate between manufacturing teams, design/engineering, robotics teams, and field installation crews to ensure alignment.

• Work closely with product, engineering, and operations to integrate project requirements into modular building systems.

• Provide feedback on design for manufacturability (DFM) and installation processes.

• Participate in iterative process development, helping refine workflows, introduce new tools, and identify efficiency opportunities.

• Manage expectations, anticipate challenges, and proactively escalation risks.

• Identify project risks and implement mitigation strategies across design, production, logistics, and installation stages.

• Support factory and field QA/QC processes, ensuring modular assemblies meet Reframe standards.

• Ensure all work complies with local codes, safety regulations, and company quality standards.

• Thrive in a fast-paced, evolving environment with shifting priorities.

• Contribute to developing new internal processes, playbooks, documentation, and best practices.

• Be willing to roll up your sleeves, jumping into detailed coordination, problem-solving on the floor, and supporting hands‑on tasks when needed.
