What You'll Do:

• Own the execution of projects and programs across the company, measured against Albedo's company goals and committed delivery dates.
• Build and maintain the integrated schedule spanning engineering, production, and software: GNC, FSW, GSW, Comms, Systems, Electronics, Optical, Mechanical, Thermal, and Production, with a real critical path and explicit margin.
• Work at the build-schedule depth, not the milestone-roll-up depth: AI&T flow, production sequencing, resource loading, test-stand and fixture contention, and long-lead procurement. You will be in the details with the people doing the work.
• Partner with team leads and systems engineering to translate technical plans into durations they will stand behind and hold the line when those durations are optimistic.
• Find slips before they are announced. Run the replan, quantify the options, and present a decision to the team.
• Own the execution cadence and keep Linear accurate as the system of record, with health, status, and dependencies that leadership can trust.
• Build the program-management practice: cadence, reporting, escalation, and schedule standards that others can run as we add programs and headcount.
• Represent programs to external customers and partners where applicable, while keeping internal delivery ownership as the primary focus.

Your Ideal Skills and Experience:

• BS in EE, CE, Aero, or ME, or demonstrated equivalent technical fluency.
• 8+ years in program or engineering management for hardware programs, with at least one where they owned the detailed build or AI&T schedule.
• Demonstrated task-level schedule ownership: resource-loaded plans, negotiated durations, and the critical path you can still explain.
• Multi-disciplinary integration experience: has run a schedule spanning mechanical, electrical, software, and test, not a single-function plan.
• Hardware production or integration and test exposure: has been on the floor or adjacent to it while something was being built.
• CAPM/PMP a plus.
