The Role
T1 Energy is looking to hire a Project Manager to lead the capital and operational projects that keep our U.S. solar manufacturing growing. You will own projects from kickoff to closeout, working across engineering, operations, supply chain, and finance to deliver on scope, schedule, and budget.
What You'll Do
• Lead capital and operational projects from initiation to closeout, including manufacturing line expansions, equipment installations, facility upgrades, and process improvements.
• Build and maintain integrated project plans, schedules, budgets, and risk registers, and keep them current.
• Coordinate across engineering, operations, supply chain, EHS, quality, and finance to keep work moving and clear roadblocks fast.
• Manage vendors, contractors, and equipment suppliers, including scope, contracts, change orders, and delivery schedules.
• Track project costs against budget, forecast variances early, and partner with finance on reporting and approvals.
• Identify risks and dependencies before they become problems, and escalate with clear options and recommendations.
• Run project cadences, including kickoffs, weekly reviews, and leadership updates, with honest status reporting.
• Make sure safety, quality, and compliance requirements are met on every project.
• Capture lessons learned and continuously improve how T1 plans and delivers projects.
• Handle administrative tasks as needed, such as meeting coordination, documentation, scheduling, and project record-keeping.
• Handle purchase orders, invoices, and record-keeping.
• Schedule meetings, tracks tasks and deadlines, updates trackers and documentation, and follow up with team members.
Who You Are
• A builder who gets things done in a fast-moving manufacturing environment.
• Accountable: you own outcomes, not just tasks, and you don't wait to be told what's next.
• A clear communicator who can brief an executive and a technician on the same day.
• Comfortable with ambiguity and skilled at prioritizing when everything feels urgent.
• A collaborator who treats people with respect and holds the line when it matters.
Qualifications
• Bachelor's degree in engineering, construction management, business, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 5+ years of project management experience, ideally in manufacturing, energy, semiconductor, or industrial capital projects.
• Proven track record of delivering projects on scope, schedule, and budget.
• Proficiency with project scheduling tools (e.g., MS Project, Smartsheet, Primavera) and Excel.
• Strong vendor, contract, and budget management skills.
• PMP or equivalent certification is a plus.
• Experience in solar, battery, or high-volume manufacturing is a plus.
• Willingness to travel to T1 facilities as needed.
