United States - Where the right candidate is located

Remote status

Fully Remote

• Lead complex, multi-disciplinary intralogistics and automation projects from kickoff to close

• Build and maintain detailed project schedules across engineering, installation, and commissioning phases

• Manage a broad and sometimes competing stakeholder landscape - clients, vendors, internal teams, and leadership

• Own financial performance: forecasting, budget control, and commercial risk management

• Drive change order strategy and contract management with a sharp eye for risk and opportunity

• Mentor Project Manager 1s and 2s, and help sharpen our project management practices company-wide

• Read and act on engineering drawings and system architecture to keep technical execution on track

What you bring

• 5–8 years of experience managing technical or industrial projects - ideally in intralogistics, warehouse automation, material handling, or systems integration

• A 4-year degree in engineering, business, or a related field

• PMP certification strongly preferred

• Strong financial acumen: you're as comfortable with a forecast as you are with a Gantt chart

• Proven experience managing contracts and change orders

• The ability to interpret engineering drawings and understand system architecture - you don't need to design the system, but you need to speak the language

• Confidence navigating advanced stakeholder environments and influencing cross-functional teams without formal authority

• A risk-anticipation mindset - you see problems before they become expensive

• Comfort with Microsoft Office and modern collaboration/scheduling tools; Microsoft Project experience is a plus, not a requirement

How we work

This role is hybrid while projects are active - you'll be on-site or with your team when it matters most for commissioning, stakeholder alignment, and hands-on problem solving. Between active project phases, it's fully remote. Expect roughly 30% travel on average to client sites and offices, with more during onboarding.
