We are currently seeking an experienced Engineering Project Manager to help drive execution across multiple engineering and cross‑functional initiatives supporting the design, development, manufacturing, and deployment of our Ultra Long Endurance aircrafts.

This individual will serve as a central coordination point across Engineering, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Quality, Flight Operations, and other functional teams to ensure critical projects remain organized, priorities stay aligned, and key deliverables continue moving forward. Success in this role requires exceptional organizational skills, strong technical project management experience, and the ability to thrive in a fast‑paced, high‑growth environment where priorities evolve rapidly.

The Engineering Project Manager will work closely with engineering leadership to translate strategic priorities into actionable project plans, coordinate cross‑functional execution, proactively identify risks, and ensure projects are completed on schedule while maintaining visibility for leadership.

• Lead the planning, execution, tracking, and successful delivery of multiple concurrent engineering projects and strategic initiatives.
• Develop and maintain integrated project plans, schedules, milestones, action item registers, and risk logs.
• Coordinate activities across Engineering, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Quality, Flight Operations, and other functional organizations.
• Facilitate project meetings, capture decisions, document action items, and ensure timely follow‑up with project stakeholders.
• Monitor project status, identify schedule risks, resource constraints, and cross‑functional dependencies, escalating issues when appropriate.
• Own the end‑to‑end software delivery lifecycle, including requirements, development, quality assurance (QA), documentation, release, customer delivery, and training readiness.
• Manage the software delivery pipeline to ensure work is properly planned, tracked, tested, documented, released, and communicated before being considered complete.
• Coordinate across software, engineering, manufacturing, quality, product, support, and customer‑facing teams to ensure releases are delivered reliably and are ready for customer use.
• Support engineering change implementation, product development activities, manufacturing readiness efforts, and continuous process improvement initiatives.
• Coordinate with internal and external stakeholders, including suppliers and technical partners, as required to support project objectives.
• Ensure project documentation is complete, accurate, and maintained throughout the project lifecycle.
• Partner with engineering leadership to prioritize work, manage competing initiatives, and maintain visibility into organizational priorities.
• Manage competing priorities across engineering teams and provide disciplined prioritization, ensuring new requests do not jeopardize existing commitments, release quality, engineering milestones, or customer obligations.
• Drive accountability across project teams while fostering strong collaborative relationships throughout the organization.
• Track project performance metrics and prepare regular status updates for engineering leadership and executive management.
• Recommend and implement scalable project management processes, tools, and best practices that improve organizational execution without creating unnecessary bureaucracy.
