## Description

Atlas Technologies is seeking an experienced Project Manager - C5ISR Systems Integration to lead the execution and oversight of projects supporting NIWC and the U.S. Coast Guard.

The Project Manager will provide overall programmatic leadership for the design, procurement, production, integration, testing, delivery, and eventual shipboard installation of C5ISR and shipboard communications systems. The position will coordinate activities across Atlas, NIWC, U.S. Coast Guard stakeholders, systems engineers, subcontractors/OEMs, and other technical organizations.

This position requires a strong project-management background combined with sufficient technical understanding of C5ISR systems design and integration to effectively manage engineering dependencies, system configurations, technical deliverables, production activities, integration risks, and schedule performance. Prior U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Navy, NIWC, or comparable DoD systems-integration experience is strongly preferred. This role supports projects delivered to the U.S. Coast Guard through our U.S. Navy, Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) partnership. Work is primarily on-site in either Charleston, SC, Virginia Beach, VA, or Alexandria, VA.

 + Work closely with systems engineers, test engineers, integration personnel, technical writers, configuration-management personnel, and other SMEs.
 + Ensure system requirements and ship-specific configurations are appropriately reflected in engineering documentation, drawings, technical data, test procedures, and integration activities.
 + Coordinate design reviews, technical interchange meetings, integration events, test-readiness activities, system testing, and Government/customer reviews.
 + Track technical issues and engineering changes through resolution and assess impacts to schedule, procurement, production, testing, and installation.
 + Support the maturation of initial designs into repeatable production and fleet installation configurations.

 * Subcontractor, Production & Customer Coordination
 + Provide programmatic oversight of subcontractors and OEMs responsible for system engineering, material procurement, manufacturing, integration, testing, and delivery.
