We are an innovative startup at the forefront of energy technology, developing cutting-edge battery and hydrogen injection systems leveraging graphene-based advancements. Our mission is to revolutionize energy storage and efficiency with scalable, high-performance solutions.

We are seeking an experienced Project Manager to lead the development and operations of our new materials facility. This expert-level role manages multiple build projects, ensures integration across functional teams, and provides overarching oversight. The ideal candidate will excel at guiding technically minded R&D professionals toward practical, market-ready solutions and navigate the dynamics of high-performance, creative teams.

Project Leadership & Oversight

• Lead the planning, execution, and delivery of assigned build projects within the facility.
• Define the project scope, objectives, deliverables, timelines, budgets, and key milestones to align with the organization's strategy.
• Simultaneously, oversee more than five small projects or two to three large-scale projects.
• Understand and align with the company's PMO framework, ensuring completion of all required documentation for stage gate approvals and compliance with standardized project governance.

Stakeholder & Team Management

• Act as the primary liaison between engineering, R&D, procurement, operations, and leadership teams.
• Facilitate regular reviews and communication of project status to senior management.
• Effectively manage relationships with vendors and contractors to align execution with project goals.

Commercialization & R&D Integration

• Bridge the gap between lab-focused R&D and commercial-scale execution by translating technical concepts into practical, scalable processes.
• Mediate and align the priorities of technically oriented R&D individuals—often strong in innovation but less focused on commercialization—with operational objectives, timelines, and quality expectations.
• Collaborate cross-functionally (including marketing, sales, regulatory, and production teams) to guide products from concept to market.

Operational Integration

• Coordinate with materials management, logistics, and supply chain teams to ensure the facility builds support long-term operational workflows.
• Oversee the integration of build projects into broader facility operations for seamless functionality.

Risk, Compliance & Quality

• Identify project risks and implement targeted mitigation strategies.
• Ensure compliance with all relevant safety, environmental, regulatory, and quality standards.
• Maintain high standards of documentation and reporting.

Continuous Improvement

• Drive continuous improvements in project execution, materials handling processes, and facility development through best practices and process optimization.
• Monitor industry trends and emerging commercialization strategies to enhance facility operations.
