Senior Project Manager

The Terra Power Isotopes® (TPI™) division has been established to pursue medical isotopes development--advancing nuclear science for significant human health benefits. We seek to support revolutionary radio therapies for treatments of various cancers through the supply of radioisotopes. Terra Power currently has unique access to a supply of thorium for the long-term production of actinium-225 in the growing alpha therapy market and intends to expand into other nuclear related medical treatments.

The Terra Power Isotopes program is an integral part of the Washington State based Terra Power team, a company working to raise living standards globally. In 2006, the company originated with Bill Gates and a group of like-minded visionaries who evaluated the fundamental challenges to raising living standards around the world. Terra Power’s mission is to be a world leader in new nuclear technologies, while developing innovators and future leaders in the nuclear field.

TPI is seeking to hire highly motivated and forward-thinking professionals who are interested in focusing on advanced radiopharmaceutical applications and influencing change within nuclear medicine.

Terra Power Isotopes® (TPI™) is seeking a Senior Project Manager to serve as TPI’s owner’s project manager for a first-of-a-kind, greenfield cGMP actinium-225 manufacturing facility—a multi-hundred-million-dollar capital program that combines pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing with shielded nuclear containment. Working within the TPI Project Office, this role holds end-to-end delivery accountability for the facility’s scope, schedule, cost, and risk, from design through construction, equipment delivery, commissioning, qualification, and turnover to operations.

This is a senior individual-contributor role for a capital project leader who has delivered complex, regulated facilities from the owner’s side and can act as the single point of accountability across a design-build partner, multiple specialized equipment vendors, and TPI’s internal engineering, quality, operations, and radiation safety teams. The role directs development of the facility design, leads delivery of the shielded containment (hot cell) program, and owns the project controls system—earned value management, integrated master scheduling, cost and contingency control, and change control—against which the program is measured.

Success depends on deep technical and commercial judgment, command of project controls, and the ability to lead through influence in an environment where regulatory rigor is non-negotiable.
