About The Position

At Acusensus, we don’t just build technology; we save lives. We are looking for a technically-minded Senior Project Manager to lead the charge in deploying our world-first AI road safety solutions across the United States, turning complex contracts into tangible community impact. As the Senior Project Manager based in our Las Vegas hub, you will be the bridge between our cutting-edge technology and real-world implementation. This is a technical, high-impact role focused on the "Transition-In" phase—taking multi-state US contracts from tender and design through to successful Business-As-Usual (BAU) operations. You will navigate cross-functional landscapes, aligning engineering, procurement, and client stakeholders to ensure our life-saving tech is deployed flawlessly. You’ll be the first member of our US-based "Transition-In" team, a group typically defined by high energy and a "get-it-done" attitude. Based in Las Vegas and reporting to the Transition-In Lead based in Australia, you’ll collaborate regularly with our Australian R&D teams and UK counterparts, balancing the fast-paced nature of a global scale-up with a supportive, care-driven office culture.

A proactive, "people-first" mindset with the ability to lead virtual and face-to-face workshops across different time zones.
Location: Las Vegas, NV (with occasional national travel on short notice)
