Original job description

Umbra is an American space technology company delivering advanced systems, from sensors to spacecraft, that empower customers worldwide with unmatched access to critical information from space. Our mission is simple and ambitious: redefine space - for people, systems, and missions in every domain. Umbra’s ecosystem operates through three business units: Remote Sensing (the data), Space Systems (the components), and Mission Solutions (the platforms). Together, our teams develop capabilities that deliver persistent access, resilient performance, and mission-ready solutions, advancing U.S. space leadership while keeping the world safe and informed.

About the Team Mission Solutions – The Platforms Mission Solutions builds on Umbra’s expertise in remote sensing and spacecraft operations to engineer platforms purpose-built for U.S. and allied defense and intelligence missions. Whether it’s a custom payload, a full-stack spacecraft, or the infrastructure behind an entire constellation, our team delivers secure, resilient systems tailored to exacting requirements and built on timelines that match the urgency of the mission. If you want to work on cutting-edge space technology that’s redefining what’s possible in space platforms, you belong here at Umbra.

About the Job As a Program Manager, you will be responsible for delivering exceptional products, systems, services, and solutions that exceed customer expectations across cost, schedule, and technical performance. The position requires a strong understanding of how technical, financial, and organizational elements align to drive program success, including the development of structured roadmaps, schedules, and budgets that are actively managed throughout the program lifecycle. The Program Manager will work closely with Umbra’s product management team to define development scope and ensure execution aligns with the principles of the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe). Success in this role depends on effective communication across both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including providing concise leadership updates and maintaining strong customer relationships. A deep understanding of Umbra’s technologies enables informed oversight of technical progress and proactive management of risks and challenges. In addition to program execution, you will contribute to business development activities, including proposals, RFI responses, customer engagement, and organic growth initiatives. The Program Manager also serves as a capture manager, leading capture strategy and proposal development for pursuits of varying size and complexity that align with Umbra’s strategic campaigns. This position is based on-site in either our Arlington, VA office or Reston, VA office.

Key Responsibilities

Program Execution: Take complete responsibility for the successful implementation (including cost, schedule, and technical aspects) of several ongoing contracts. Ensure monthly updates of financial results and forecasts. Deliver monthly status reports to facilitate Program Management Reviews.
Processes: Participate in the maturation of Umbra's Program Excellence Framework, which consists of documented procedures for initiating, executing, and concluding programs. Utilize insights and experiences gained from previous programs, while customizing them to align with Umbra's operational style, to establish streamlined processes for areas including financial management, risk management, contractual obligations, and performance monitoring.
Agile Development: Serve as the Business Owner for technologies associated with contracts. Collaborate with product management and system architects on engineering solutions. Engage actively in key Agile ceremonies, including PI planning.
Growth and Strategy: Take the lead in capture, developing winning proposals and creating compelling solutions. Create and implement growth strategies for existing and upcoming contracts. Act as the customer's advocate in product management to help shape company roadmaps based on their requirements.
All other duties as assigned.
