As a Senior Project Manager responsible for overall lifecycle of a construction project within the Facilities Project Management Branch, you are responsible for the coordination and integration of construction projects while ensuring adherence to established project constraints. Resolving engineering issues associated with facility projects managed by the organization using engineering principles, concepts, and practices for modifications of unique aerospace facilities and systems.

Duties

Plan and oversee the building process of various construction projects throughout the lifecycle for new facilities, or modifications to existing facilities, systems and ground infrastructure. Overall stewardship of the construction project established budgetary, schedule and scope constraints and reports to customer organization. Ensures construction projects is following through agreed upon acquisition and implementation methodologies. Coordinate with a team of professionals of different disciplines to achieve the best results for the management of the planning, design, implementation, and activation of construction projects. Ensure construction contractor is performing the work in accordance to established plan and agreed to project schedule, reviews resources estimates and uses such information to ensure proper distribution of project resources. Review detailed design, procurement and construction schedules and formulates and disseminates decisions for appropriate action to ensure compliance with approved project requirements and schedules. Management and integration of contractors performing the design and fabrication of large and complex electrical, mechanical, or structural ground support equipment or ground support systems may be substituted for facilities related experience. Perform independent assessments to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of operations and recommends improvements as necessary to ensure construction projects are being implemented within the established constraints Manage and integrate internal governmental oversight processes during the various phases of a construction project lifecycle to ensure adherence with applicable agency requirements.

a) Engineering from a college or university that has ABET accredited engineering programs
b) Physical Science, Mathematics, Life Science or other field of Science
c) Computer Science that included 30 semester hours or 45 quarter hours of course work in any combination of mathematics, statistics and computer science with at least half of those hours in mathematics and statistics courses that included differential and integral calculus; and that provided an in-depth knowledge of theoretical and practical applications of computer science, including digital computer system architecture and system software organization, the representation and transformation of information structures, and the theoretical models for such representations and transformations.

If you did not complete a qualifying bachelor's degree, you may be eligible if you have obtained a graduate degree in an AST qualifying field, as listed above.

Degrees in engineering technology are not considered qualifying for this position.

Engineering degrees earned within the United States: Engineering degrees earned within the United States must be from a college or university that has at least one ABET accredited engineering program. To find out if a school has at least one ABET accredited program, please visit http://www.abet.org.

Engineering degrees earned outside the United States: Engineering degrees earned outside the United States must be recognized by a Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA), often known as accords. These are non-governmental agreements among organizations that accredit academic degree programs. MRAs recognize the substantial equivalence of mature accreditation systems and programs accredited by signatory organizations within their jurisdictions.
