Project Manager Role SummaryWe are seeking an experienced Project Manager to lead cross-functional programs involvingsuperconducting materials, magnet systems, and cryogenic technologies. The ideal candidate willdrive projects from concept through prototyping, testing, and deployment — coordinating tightlywith materials science, cryogenics, electrical engineering, and quality teams to deliversuperconducting magnets, wire/tape, or systems on time, within budget, and to performance specifications.Key Responsibilities
- Own end-to-end planning and execution of superconductor programs, including magnet/coildevelopment, wire and tape production, cryostat integration, and system-level testing.
- Develop and maintain integrated project schedules, critical path analysis, and resource plans.
- Coordinate with R&D;, process, and reliability engineering teams to track technical milestonessuch as material qualification, coil winding, cooldown/quench testing, and field-performancevalidation.
- Manage project budgets, capital expenditure (CapEx) tracking, and vendor/tooling procurementtimelines in partnership with finance and procurement, including specialty cryogenic equipment.
- Identify, track, and mitigate risks related to quench events, material performance, supply of rare materials and schedule slippage; escalate issues with clear recovery plans.
- Drive stakeholder communication through regular program reviews, status reports, andexecutive dashboards (e.G., using Zoho, MS Project, Smartsheet, or Jira).
- Facilitate change control and cross-site/cross-lab coordination for multi-partner or multi-vendorprograms,



including academic and national-lab collaborations where applicable.
- Partner with customers, research institutions, and/or component suppliers on programtimelines, qualification requirements, and delivery commitments.
- Lead post-project reviews and drive continuous improvement in project management processes,tools, and templates.Required Qualifications
- Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Materials Science, Physics, Mechanical Engineering,or related field.
- 3 - 7 years of project management experience in superconductor, cryogenics, advancedmaterials, or related high-tech R&D; manufacturing environments.
- Working understanding of superconducting materials (low-temperature and/or high-temperature superconductors), magnet design, or cryogenic systems.
- Proven track record managing multi-disciplinary teams and complex, schedule-driven programswith hard technical milestones.
- Proficiency with project management tools (Zoho, MS Project, Smartsheet, Jira, Primavera) andengineering/ERP systems (SAP, Oracle).
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with experience presenting tosenior leadership, research partners, and customers.
- PMP, PgMP, or Six Sigma certification preferred.Preferred Skills
- Familiarity with cryogenic infrastructure (helium liquefaction, cryocoolers, dilution refrigerators)and associated safety protocols.
- Exposure to national laboratory, academic research, or government-funded (e.G., DOE, ITER)program environments.
- Experience in a regulated or safety-critical workplace involving pressure systems, highmagnetic fields, or cryogenic hazards.
