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.

Research shows that while men apply to jobs where they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other underrepresented people tend to only apply when they meet 100% of the qualifications. At Albedo, we'd rather hear from you. We care more about how you think than which boxes you check. We value people who do the math, make their assumptions explicit, and ask the annoying questions: what breaks, what's the failure mode, what has to be true for this to work? If that sounds like you, apply, even if you don't meet every line.
