About The Position

Fuse builds innovative communications, networking, and computing solutions that improve the sharing of information, video, text, and voice among operators distributed throughout the airborne, maritime, and ground environments. We are a technology firm creating in-house software, network and hardware solutions that support our noble cause of advancing warfighter capabilities with elegant, user-focused communications, networks, and software systems. This role is for an exceptional early-career professional who can take an objective, close the gaps, learn the tools, organize the chaos, and deliver. We care less about specialized education and experience than about drive, ownership, intelligence, judgment, and follow-through. You will work in our Project Management Office (PMO) on schedules, data, reporting, tools, and processes that keep complex technical projects moving at Fuse speed. You will learn Microsoft Project, Excel, analytics, AI-enabled workflows, project controls, business operations, contracts, finance, and the mechanics of real program execution. You do not need to know all of that on day one. You need to be smart enough, disciplined enough, and driven enough to learn it fast. For the right person, this is a launchpad into project management, business leadership, finance, contracts, operations, program management, or other high-value career paths. At Fuse, you will help turn complex project activity into clear information, useful tools, and better decisions. You will support project managers, program managers, and business leaders by connecting schedules, data, reporting mechanisms, and tools to produce organized and actionable insights.
