Assistant Project Manager

The Assistant Project Manager is a developing project management role that supports the planning, coordination, and execution of large-scale projects and high-level programs at TRISO-X - working under the general supervision of senior project managers and project leadership while steadily building the skills to lead independently. You'll partner across the full project ecosystem - project controls, engineering, licensing, supply chain, quality, safety, manufacturing, testing, operations, and construction - gaining hands-on exposure to how first-of-a-kind nuclear programs come together.

As you apply and grow your technical and programmatic skills on routine to moderately complex assignments, you'll take on increasing latitude for independent judgment: supporting project managers in identifying and resolving issues that affect cost and schedule performance, spotting opportunities to improve execution, and helping direct external subcontracted teams and internal matrixed teams. We're looking for a project professional who's eager to learn, detail-oriented, and ready to grow in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment: someone who thrives on coordination, communicates clearly across technical and non-technical audiences, and wants to develop into a full project manager under the mentorship of experienced leaders.

This is a role designed for growth - every assignment builds the foundation for greater responsibility, autonomy, and impact on programs that are advancing clean, reliable nuclear energy at scale.
