The posting

Who we are:

Fuse builds innovative communications, networking, and computing solutions that improve the sharing of information, video, text, and voice among operators distributed throughout the airborne, maritime, and ground environments. We are a technology firm creating in-house software, network and hardware solutions that support our noble cause of advancing warfighter capabilities with elegant, user-focused communications, networks, and software systems.

About this role:

Do you thrive in innovative, design-driven environments with a high level of both accountability and trust? Are you passionate about delivering elegant hardware solutions with the right amount of engineering rigor? Are you seeking a technical role where you can take initiative? If so - we want to hear from you!

Fuse is looking for a Technically savvy, driven hands-on Project Manager with a “get it done” mindset to lead the development, integration, and demonstration of advanced communications and networking technologies. In this role, you will oversee and manage all aspects of project execution and provide strategic guidance to the team and stakeholders. Our work focuses on DoD network and tactical communications providing a variety of communications abilities to USN, USAF, and USMC platforms including tactical data links, line of site and beyond line-of-sight radios, and crossbanding of IP data. This engineering-minded Project Manager must be passionate about enhancing operator capabilities with user-focused communication, network, and software systems.

Warfighter-focused design and development is at the heart of Fuse processes. Throughout Fuse development, our experienced team applies the best practices of commercial design-thinking, coupled to the DoD systems engineering framework. The combination of commercially proven design with rigorous systems engineering gives Fuse the ability to rapidly design, develop and field solutions well inside of typical military design cycles. Fuse rapidly innovates, putting creative concepts into action and refining those concepts through hands-on testing, user evaluation, and iterations.

What you’ll do:

  • Ensure customer satisfaction through clear communication, accountability, and proactive problem-solving.
  • Serve as the primary interface between customers, internal engineering teams, and leadership.
  • Get in front of real-world operators to understand needs and requirements from an end-user point of view
  • Manage budget, schedule, and scope, adjusting dynamically as project needs evolve.
  • Lead risk management, resource planning, and performance tracking.
  • Establish and refine project management processes suitable for a high-growth, agile startup.
  • Support proposal development, planning, and strategic growth initiatives.
  • Ensure system development environment and system attributes align with DoD security requirements

Requirements

We are looking for:

Ideal candidates will have experience in technical leadership, project budget and schedule management, and familiarity with military aircraft and communication systems.

  • 7 – 10 years of experience in technical or engineering environments, including 2–5 years of direct project management responsibility
  • Strong leadership presence and proven ability to take charge, motivate teams, and deliver results.
  • Technical foundation — degree in engineering, systems management, or a related field, or equivalent hands-on experience.
  • Excellent organizational, communication, presenting, and decision-making skills.
  • Adaptable to startup environments, comfortable building structure where needed.
  • U.S. citizenship
  • Current US SECRET Clearance, or ability to get clearance

Must be a nimble self-starter who is excited about technology and has the ability to think out of the box and suggest powerful new ideas.

Nice to have:

  • Former military officer or similar experience with operational or acquisition programs.
  • Familiarity with tactical data links (TDL), secure communications, and/or BLOS systems.
  • Experience with DoD R&D process and life cycle management
  • Familiarity with applying Agile or hybrid project management methods in hardware/software development.
  • Proficiency with MS Project, Jira, or similar PM tools, and exposure to Earned Value Management (EVM).

Salary Range: $120,000 - $160,000
