Facilities Project Manager

Who we are

Neros is a defense technology company rebuilding America’s drone industrial base. We design and manufacture high-performance unmanned systems that are tested in combat, iterated at startup speed, and built at massive scale. Our team culture is fast, hands-on, and obsessed with closing the gap between design and deployment.

As drones transform the character of warfare, Neros is delivering the systems the West needs to compete on the modern battlefield and deter the adversaries of democracy. We’re hiring engineers, operators, and builders who want to move fast, take on extreme ownership, and get capability into the hands of warfighters in months, not years.

What you will be doing

As a Senior Facilities Project Manager at Neros, you will lead the design and construction of facility infrastructure projects supporting manufacturing, engineering, laboratory, and office operations. You will own projects from initial requirements and scope development through design, permitting, construction, commissioning, and closeout. You will manage third-party architects, MEP consultants, contractors, specialty vendors, and other external partners while coordinating closely with Manufacturing, Engineering, EHS, IT, Security, and landlord stakeholders. This role owns project scope, budget, schedule, permitting, vendor coordination, and construction execution. Projects may include manufacturing infrastructure, equipment installations, utility upgrades, cleanrooms, laboratories, HVAC and exhaust projects, electrical upgrades, office and warehouse modifications, and general facility renovations. The ideal candidate is technically strong, highly organized, comfortable in the field, and capable of driving multiple projects through ambiguity at startup speed.
