  • Collaborate with the Project Engineer / Technical Lead to align technical execution with project goals
  • Coordinate across engineering, operations, and product teams to remove roadblocks
  • Ensure smooth handovers between deployment, testing, and operations
  • Maintain lightweight but effective processes that balance speed with structure
  • Continuously improve workflows to enhance future project execution
  • Bachelor’s degree in engineering (Telecom, Electrical, Computer, or related field)
  • A minimum of 5 years of experience managing projects in telecom, satellite, or related technical fields
  • Proven track record of delivering complex technical projects on time and within scope
