  • Own the full lifecycle planning for key programs, from scoping and SOW definition to closure.
  • Support commercial teams in shaping new opportunities, timelines, and phase gate plans.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives within the PMO and mentor more junior project managers or technical leads.
  • Contribute to portfolio level reporting and planning, ensuring alignment with company priorities

  • +5 years of experience managing complex technical projects or programs in a dynamic environment.
  • Proven customer facing experience as primary contact on technical projects.

  • Solid understanding of project financials, including budgeting and basic P&L concepts.

This is a great fit if you:

  • Enjoy bringing order and clarity to complex technical work.
  • Are very organized with both your time and your tasks.
  • Have a dynamic mindset and are comfortable adapting plans as reality changes.
  • Like building structures, processes, and ways of working that others can use.

  • Are resilient and can handle pressure from demanding customers and tight timelines.
  • Want to make a tangible impact in a deep tech environment.
  • Are a team player who collaborates well across disciplines and cultures.

  • Are afraid of failure or prefer to avoid tough conversations.
  • Prefer to stay in your comfort zone and do not enjoy change.
