About The Position

Luster is building its owner-side digital transformation and PMIS advisory practice for mega capital infrastructure construction programs. This posting is for future roles rather than a currently available opportunity. Candidates may be considered for upcoming hiring needs and, if selected, may be added to a specialty talent pool that is notified first when project needs arise. The company is currently targeting the greater San Francisco Bay area but will consider qualified candidates anywhere in the continental United States. Positions require up to 50% travel. The role leads executive discovery, stakeholder engagement, and roadmap development, and shapes PMIS strategy by connecting governance, program controls, cost, schedule, risk, documents, and reporting into a practical owner-focused operating model. It also supports business development, pursuit strategy, proposal development, account growth, resource forecasting, service-line development, partner coordination, and team mentoring. Scope and complexity vary with experience level. Luster is committed to an inclusive work environment and considers qualified applicants without regard to protected characteristics. Positions may be subject to a background check and drug test following a conditional offer, consistent with applicable regulations. Application-process accommodations are available by contacting [email protected].
