About The Position

We are seeking a mid to Senior level Integrated Master Scheduler with hands-on experience in IT hardware procurement, infrastructure integration, and large-scale technology deployment programs to support a complex DoD or federal enterprise IT initiative. Building and maintaining the Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) across all phases of the program lifecycle, from hardware procurement and site preparation through integration, testing, fielding, and sustainment. Understanding the unique scheduling challenges of IT infrastructure programs: Naval Fleet Readiness Review Board (FRCB), Shore Installation Process Handbook (SIPH), long-lead hardware lead times, multi-vendor dependencies, site readiness sequencing, configuration management windows, and cut-over planning.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in information technology, engineering, business, project management, or a related field; equivalent experience will be considered
• Seven plus years of demonstrated experience developing, baselining, and maintaining integrated master schedules on U.S. Government or DoD programs, with at least 3 years supporting Navy C4I, network integration, or IT infrastructure programs
• Direct experience scheduling programs within the Navy's IT/network enterprise — NMCI, ONE-NET, CANES, ADNS, or comparable C4I systems — including familiarity with the processes, stakeholders, and constraints that govern Navy network work
• Proven experience leading or playing a primary role in an Integrated Baseline Review (IBR), including DCMA 14-Point compliance preparation and direct government engagement
• Deep proficiency in Microsoft Project, Primavera P6, or equivalent; ability to build complex, logic-driven, resource-loaded schedules from scratch
• Strong command of Earned Value Management principles, IPMR/CPR reporting requirements, and MIL-HDBK-881 WBS methodology
• Demonstrated experience scheduling around cybersecurity accreditation milestones (IATT, ATO, eMASS) under the Risk Management Framework (RMF)
• Experience managing multi-vendor, multi-site schedules with hardware procurement lead times, GFE/GFI dependencies, and installation sequencing constraints
• Ability to perform critical path analysis, schedule risk analysis, and probabilistic risk modeling independently
• Strong executive communication skills; demonstrated ability to brief schedule status, risks, and recovery paths to senior leadership and government customers
• U.S. Citizenship
• U.S. Government security clearance at the Secret level with Top Secret / SCI eligibility

Nice To Haves

• Understands IT infrastructure concepts well enough to build realistic, logic-driven schedules that reflect how the work actually flows
• Accurately captures hardware lead times, site readiness dependencies, and integration sequencing; catches conflicts before they drive delays
• Identifies root cause behind schedule variances, whether hardware, personnel, site access, or accreditation, and proposes realistic recovery paths
• Translates complex multi-site, multi-vendor schedule data into clear, decision-ready information for diverse audiences
• Manages shifting delivery dates, vendor changes, and evolving government requirements without losing schedule integrity
• Works across functional disciplines including engineering, logistics, IT operations, cybersecurity, contracts, and government stakeholders
