About The Position

We're looking for a highly skilled Integrated Master Scheduler IV to join our team as a contractor under the Joint Project Manager (JPM) for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Integrated Early Warning (IEW), located at Aberdeen Proving Ground - South in Edgewood, MD (formerly known as Edgewood Arsenal). This position supports the Department of War (DoW) acquisition programs across the full project lifecycle. The ideal candidate will build, maintain, and analyze complex Integrated Master Schedules (IMS), integrating schedule baselines with cost estimation, systems engineering milestones, and enterprise risk management frameworks to support program leadership decision-making.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s Degree (4-year) in Business, Science, Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
• Minimum of six (6) years of direct experience in DoW acquisition lifecycle activities and management.
• Active or Interim SECRET clearance.
• Proficiency with industry-standard scheduling software (e.g., Microsoft Project, Primavera P6, Open Plan, or Milestones Professional).
• Demonstrated experience conducting schedule risk assessments and quantitative modeling using risk tools and simulations (e.g., Monte Carlo analysis, Risk Recon, or equivalent schedule risk software).
• Familiarity with integrating schedule baselines with program cost estimating, financial execution data, or Earned Value Management (EVM) toolsets (e.g., ACEIT, JACS, or similar cost/schedule integration software).
• High proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Outlook) for developing schedule metrics, variance reports, and executive briefings.
• Proven ability to build and manage Integrated Master Schedules (IMS), establish baseline changes, conduct critical path analysis, and perform schedule variance assessments.
• Understanding of structured project lifecycle frameworks (e.g., product development, system testing, production, or sustainment) and standard Work Breakdown Structures (WBS).
• Demonstrated expertise leading or supporting multi-disciplinary Integrated Product Teams (IPTs) or project working groups to collect schedule status and resolve execution roadblocks.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills with a track record of translating complex schedule and risk data into clear metrics, dashboards, and executive-level briefings.

Nice To Haves

• Experience supporting federal, defense, or aerospace programs is preferred.

Responsibilities

• Develop, maintain, and analyze resource-loaded Integrated Master Schedules (IMS) mapped to the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), Cost Estimation System (CES), and Acquisition Program Baselines (APBs).
• Lead or support program risk management processes, executing Monte Carlo simulations, schedule risk analyses, and risk-loaded schedules to evaluate impacts on cost, performance, and milestones.
• Lead and participate in Integrated Product Teams (IPTs/WIPTs), Program Management Reviews (PMRs), and milestone decisions, briefing senior leadership on critical paths, schedule variances, and execution status.
• Integrate schedule toolsets with cost and financial data (EVM analysis, spend plans, status of funds) to support acquisition documentation and compliance with DoD acquisition guidance.
• Evaluate technical, cost, and schedule data across research, development, testing, production, and sustainment phases in accordance with DoDI 5000.02 standards.
