Information Technology Manager

Sealing Technologies, a Parsons company, innovates and delivers high-performance deployable anywhere technologies that push what's possible at the edge, enabling organizations across the globe to solve complex challenges with speed and confidence. We design, engineer, and deliver products and deployable technologies built for environments where traditional infrastructure falls short.

Sealing Technologies, a Parsons Company, is looking for an IT Manager to join our Corporate IT team in Columbia, MD. Reporting to the Director of IT, this role leads the IT team in executing the objectives, priorities, and project portfolio established by the Director, ensuring projects and operational initiatives are driven through completion.

This is a hands on management role rather than a personnel management role. Prior experience leading or supervising IT staff is required (but this position has no direct reports; all IT staff continue to report to the Director of IT). The IT Manager provides technical direction, advises and unblocks the team, owns escalations, and executes technical work directly when the situation calls for it.

The ideal candidate moves comfortably between running a project plan, advising the team, and solving a problem personally, and communicates clearly with leadership, engineers, and non-technical users alike.

The position is hybrid and based entirely out of our Columbia, MD headquarters: three days per week in office, with two days remote. Occasional travel may be required as business needs dictate.
