Job Description

At Mission Technologies, a divison of HII, we aren't just following the curve; we’re defining it. We are looking for a visionary Program Manager to bridge the gap between the research/prototype and battlefield deployment.

Our philosophy is built on a Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA). We don’t lock ourselves into proprietary silos; we curate and integrate the absolute best industry technology to ensure our warfighters never face a fair fight. With our new state-of-the-art integration and test facilities, we have the infrastructure - now we need the leadership.

As the Program Manager for Directed Energy, you will be the primary architect of program success, overseeing the lifecycle of advanced laser and microwave systems. This isn't just about oversight; it’s about program execution in a high-tech environment.

The ability to inspire diverse engineering and production teams in a fast-paced, "dynamic-is-the-norm" environment
Must reside within 50 miles of the following locations or a willingness to relocate Knoxville, TN within 90 - 120 days

This is more than a career move; it is an opportunity to work alongside industry-leading experts on technology that is redefining national security. You will have the resources of a titan and the agility of an innovator to build, test, and deploy the next generation of defense.

Customer Stakeholder Engagement: Serve as the primary point of contact for customers, leading program reviews and effectively communicating program status and technical progress.
Contract Management: Manage contract negotiations, modifications, and ensure adherence to the scope of work.
Risk and Opportunity Management: Proactively identify and mitigate program risks while identifying and pursuing opportunities for program growth.
Supplier Management: Oversee key suppliers and subcontractors to ensure they meet program objectives.
Strategic Planning: Contribute to the strategic direction of the directed energy portfolio, supporting business development and capture efforts for new opportunities.
Team Development: Mentor and develop program team members, fostering a culture of innovation and excellence.
