Your Role: Engineering Project Manager ( I or II )

Ampirical's Engineering PMO is seeking Project Manager ( I or II ) to lead engineering project delivery across the full project lifecycle — managing scope, schedule, budget, risk, and client relationships on electrical utility projects ranging from single-discipline designs to multi-discipline programs. This is a hands-on leadership role within a growing PMO where project managers own their projects end to end and are supported by a dedicated Project Controls team.

What You’ll Do:

• Manage contracts and project scopes ranging from $1M–$5M+, ensuring all technical deliverables meet client and regulatory standards.

Project Manager I : is responsible for managing contract scopes for smaller projects, task orders, and designs valued at $250,000 or less, with a focus on single-discipline or non-complex designs.

Project Manager II : expands that responsibility to complex, multi-discipline projects, task orders, and designs valued between $250,000 and $1,000,000+, encompassing multiple engineering disciplines and multiple concurrent projects

• Own the full project lifecycle — from proposal and kickoff through design, field coordination, and closeout — ensuring deliverables are on time, on budget, and contract-compliant

• Develop engineering budgets, milestone schedules, and resource plans using bottom-up methods and manage performance against those plans throughout execution

• Lead stakeholder communication across engineering teams, clients, subconsultants, and internal leadership — including meetings, status reports, and change order management

• Manage contract scope, risk registers, and monthly reporting across the five pillars of contract management: scope, risk, schedule, budget, and resources

• Coordinate field activities including site observations, commissioning events, surveys, and feasibility studies while ensuring alignment with safety and quality standards

• Write and support proposals ranging from task order letters to competitive bid packages, including scope narratives, assumptions, and pricing

• Ensure all engineering designs meet applicable codes, regulatory requirements, and the industry standard of care across every deliverable
