Project Manager

The future of aerospace and defense starts here. 

Ursa Major was founded to revolutionize how America and its allies access and apply high-performance propulsion, from hypersonics to solid rocket motors, satellite maneuvering and launch. We design and deliver propulsion and defense systems that solve the most urgent and critical national security demands. 

The Journey Starts Here As Ursa Major continues to grow, we are investing heavily in manufacturing, test, research, and corporate facilities across multiple Colorado campuses. From manufacturing equipment installations and laboratory upgrades to new buildings, utilities, test infrastructure, and campus expansion projects, our Facilities & Capital Projects team delivers the infrastructure that enables Ursa Major's continued growth. 

We are seeking an experienced Senior Project Manager to lead the planning, design, permitting, procurement, construction, and commissioning of a diverse portfolio of capital projects. This individual will serve as the owner's representative and primary project manager for projects

ranging from manufacturing equipment installations and facility upgrades to new buildings, utilities, laboratories, and other infrastructure improvements. 

Projects range from small facility improvements and manufacturing equipment installations to multi-million-dollar buildings, laboratories, utility systems, and campus infrastructure. The successful candidate must be comfortable managing projects within active manufacturing environments while coordinating closely with operations to minimize production impacts. 

The ideal candidate is a highly organized project leader with experience delivering large-scale industrial, manufacturing, aerospace, defense, energy, or infrastructure projects. This role is focused on project execution, stakeholder management, and construction leadership rather than detailed engineering design. 

Projects may support any Ursa Major facility, including Berthoud, Longmont, Galeton, test sites, and future locations.
