Mission Project Lead

What You’ll Be Doing

As a Mission Project Lead, you will be embedded with Quindar’s engineering teams to help drive day-to-day execution of U.S. DoD, IC, and Civil mission efforts. You’ll work closely with engineers, product owners, and Technical Program Managers (TPMs) to keep work organized, surface and resolve blockers, track tasking, and ensure engineering execution stays aligned to program milestones and commitments.

This role is ideal for someone who is highly organized, proactive, and comfortable operating close to the technical work. You will provide the execution discipline and coordination that helps engineering teams move quickly, maintain clear priorities, and consistently close work against mission objectives.

Key Responsibilities

• Embedded Mission Execution: Work directly within engineering teams to coordinate day-to-day execution against program priorities, milestones, and near-term objectives

• Task & Progress Management: Maintain visibility into active work, owners, dependencies, due dates, and completion criteria; ensure tasking is current and accurately reflects engineering progress

• Team Cadence & Coordination: Facilitate internal planning sessions, stand-ups
