Technical Project Manager
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to map content accordingly.
We have "Who We Are" - could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is generic; but we have company description. Could use "About the role" heading for the description of role and company? The instruction says do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. It's okay to have "About the role" heading with content about role and company. We'll put the "Who We Are" and "What You Will Be Doing" under About the role.
Then Responsibilities as Responsibilities
with - list.
Then Requirements/Qualifications: we have "You should have the following" (Bachelor's degree etc). That's qualifications. Could also separate Requirements and Qualifications but we can combine under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have a single "Requirements" section containing both required and nice-to-have? But nice-to-have is separate; we could have "Qualifications" for required, and "Nice to Have" as separate maybe "Preferred Qualifications". However instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. So we can have "Requirements" for required, and "Nice to Have" as separate maybe "Preferred Qualifications". But they gave examples of headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We could use "Requirements" for required, and "Nice to Have" could be under "Preferred Qualifications" or "Skills". But we have a "Nice to Have" list; we could treat that as "Preferred Qualifications". However they didn't list that as example heading but we can still use it? The instruction: use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., not exhaustive. So we can add other headings if needed, but better to stick to those. We could put nice-to-have under "Skills" or "Qualifications". But we already have qualifications for required. Could add a "Preferred Qualifications" heading but not in examples; maybe okay but risk. Safer to put nice-to-have under "Skills". However the nice-to-have list includes experience areas, not exactly skills but could be considered skills. We'll put them under Skills
.
Pay: we have US Salary Range. So we need a Pay section with that info.
Benefits: not present, so omit.
Schedule: not present, omit.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Pay.
Now we need to preserve all substantive information, no boilerplate. Remove EEO etc. Also remove "We’re an equal opportunity employer..." etc. Also remove "Highly competitive equity grants are considered part of Neros' total compensation package." That's actually a benefit? It's about compensation; could be considered part of Pay? It's not salary range but still compensation. The instruction: include Pay section only if posting actually states them. It states salary range and mentions equity grants. That's compensation info; we can include in Pay section. We'll include salary range and note equity grants.
We must not invent or summarize away detail. Keep details.
Now format: Use for each heading. Then content: For About the role, we have prose paragraphs. We'll put them in
. Possibly multiple paragraphs.
Responsibilities: list items.
Requirements: list items (the bullet points after "You should have the following").
Skills: list items (nice to have).
Pay: paragraph with salary range and equity grants note.
Make sure not to include any boilerplate like "We’re an equal opportunity employer." etc.
Now extract content.
Who We Are: "Neros is a defense technology company rebuilding America’s drone industrial base. We design and manufacture high-performance unmanned systems that are tested in combat, iterated at startup speed, and built at massive scale. Our team culture is fast, hands-on, and obsessed with closing the gap between design and deployment. As drones transform the character of warfare, Neros is delivering the systems the West needs to compete on the modern battlefield and deter the adversaries of democracy. We’re hiring engineers, operators, and builders who want to move fast, take on extreme ownership, and get capability into the hands of warfighters in months, not years."
What You Will Be Doing: "The Technical Project Manager will support the technical planning, cost analysis, resource planning, and execution tracking for RDT&E, engineering, and program related efforts supporting defense programs. This role will work closely with Program Management, Engineering, Finance, Contracts, Manufacturing, Test, and other functional teams to develop detailed estimates, resource plans, technical schedules, and cost forecasts necessary to support program execution. The Technical Project Manager will provide visibility into the cost, resource, and schedule impacts of technical activities while helping cross-functional teams maintain alignment against established program objectives."
We can combine these two paragraphs under About the role.
Now Responsibilities list:
- Develop and maintain detailed cost, schedule, and resource plans for engineering and RDT&E efforts, including labor/FTE requirements, materials, prototype hardware, testing, tooling, equipment, software, travel, and other project needs
- Develop and maintain technical project schedules that capture milestones, dependencies, resource constraints, testing and qualification activities, and required completion dates
- Develop cost estimates, budgets, forecasts, and budget-versus-actual analysis for assigned technical efforts, including visibility by Delivery Order, CLIN, work package, or other applicable level
- Develop Basis of Estimates (BOEs) and supporting cost and resource inputs for proposals, Delivery Orders, contract modifications, and new technical scope in coordination with Engineering, Finance, Contracts, and Program Management
- Track technical workstreams against established cost, schedule, and resource plans, identify variances and constraints, evaluate impacts from changing requirements or scope, and communicate risks, forecasts, and required actions to cross-functional stakeholders
Now Requirements (You should have the following):
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Business, Project Management, Finance, or a related technical or quantitative discipline; or 4–8 years of relevant professional experience in a related field in lieu of a degree
- Experience supporting or leading engineering development, R&D/RDT&E, testing, qualification, production, or other technical development activities
- Demonstrated experience developing and maintaining detailed project schedules, including milestones, dependencies, resource requirements, and schedule tracking
- Demonstrated experience developing labor/resource estimates, project budgets, cost forecasts, or other quantitative project plans
- Experience tracking cost, schedule, and resource performance and identifying or communicating variances, constraints, and forecast impacts
- Strong proficiency with Microsoft Excel, including experience developing and maintaining cost, resource, budget, or forecasting models
- Experience with Microsoft Project or another project scheduling/planning tool
- Experience working cross-functionally with Engineering and other technical or operational teams to develop plans and support execution
Now Skills (Nice to Have):
- Experience within aerospace, defense, robotics, UAS, space, or another complex hardware development environment
- Experience developing Basis of Estimates (BOEs) or supporting proposal, pricing, or Government contracting activities
- Familiarity with FFP, CPFF, IDIQ, Delivery Order/CLIN structures, FAR cost principles, or Government proposal and pricing requirements
- Working knowledge of hardware development activities such as prototype builds, EVT/DVT, verification, qualification, testing, and transition to production
- Experience with NetSuite or similar ERP/financial systems, and/or PMP or a similar project management certification
Now Pay:
- US Salary Range $111,500 – $156,000 USD. The salary range for this role is an estimate based on a wide range of compensation factors, inclusive of base salary only. Actual salary may vary based on (but not limited to) work experience, education and/or training, critical skills, and/or business considerations. Highly competitive equity grants are considered part of Neros' total compensation package.
We need to preserve that exactly, but we can combine into a paragraph.
Now ensure no duplication. Also remove any lines like "We’re an equal opportunity employer..." etc.
Now output HTML fragment.
