Senior Technical Project Manager — Physical Security & Critical Infrastructure

WHATS THE ROLE?

The Sr. Technical Project Manager is a hands-on delivery role. You'll own a portfolio of concurrent projects across utilities, from scoping through deployment, acceptance, and closeout. Most projects run direct between iEnet and the end customer, working closely with our engineering team. You'll be the central point of execution, translating scope into a plan, coordinating engineers and subcontractors, working the technical details, and keeping the customer's project-level counterparts informed throughout.

You've spent years personally delivering physical security and infrastructure integration projects. You've done this work at a physical security integrator, an engineering or EPC firm with a security or substation practice and/or a utility's construction, security or critical infrastructure delivery group. You understand substations, control centers, remote field sites, and what "critical infrastructure" actually means on the ground. You've owned scope, schedule, budget, vendor coordination, and customer-facing delivery on concurrent projects. NERC CIP, badging requirements, site access certifications, and regulated-environment compliance aren't new to you.
