The Mission
Our customers trust AiDASH with their most critical operational challenges: delivering safe, reliable, and cost-effective infrastructure services while navigating climate change and the energy transition. We are looking for a Program Manager – Strategy & Operations to establish the first Program Management Office (PMO) at AiDASH.
At AiDASH we secure tomorrow. As Program Manager – Strategy & Operations, you will be the planner and traffic director for our entire customer delivery system. You will assure cost and schedule performance across the full portfolio, from satellite tasking to AI modeling and analysis to web and mobile app delivery. In a rapidly scaling environment, you will cut through noise, balance competing priorities, and guide internal teams toward what matters most: delivering faster, higher-impact results for every AiDASH customer.
What You’ll Do:
- Build and run AiDASH’s PMO with tools, practices, and dashboards that give transparency across the entire portfolio
- Plan and manage the master delivery schedule across satellite vendors, AI/analytics, and app delivery, and replan as new sales enter the system
- Optimize cost and schedule performance by managing throughput and resource allocation across all delivery teams
- Create clarity and accountability by calling out risks early and ensuring the organization addresses them head-on
- Set priorities and hold the line, even when multiple project teams believe their work is most urgent
- Influence without authority while ensuring that decisions are made on facts, not optimistic assumptions
- Report portfolio health with accuracy, objectivity, and persistence, building trust with leadership and customer-facing teams
- Continuously improve the delivery system to increase throughput, reduce delays, and drive faster customer outcomes
What We’re Looking For:
- Must-haves
- Good-to-haves

Ability to cut through competing narratives and create a clear, fact-based view of delivery health
Self-starter who drives their own work with minimal supervision
Experience standing up or running a Program Management Office (PMO)
Familiarity with SaaS B2B delivery, consulting engagements, or infrastructure/industrial portfolios
