Vice President of Project Management

Moonshot is hiring a Vice President of Project Management to build and lead a high-performance PMO organization responsible for executing complex, high-value electrical equipment projects for hyperscale data centers.

This role owns the full project execution system at Moonshot-from sales handoff through equipment turnover-ensuring every project is delivered on time, on budget, and with complete documentation. The VP will establish standardized processes, implement scalable systems, and lead a team of Project Managers operating across switchgear, ATS, RPP, UPS, and UL-listed panel assemblies. This is a builder role: the VP will not inherit a mature PMO-they will design it, implement it, and scale it, while actively driving execution on critical projects. The VP of Project Management is ultimately accountable for execution predictability, schedule reliability, and customer delivery performance across all projects at Moonshot.

1. PMO Leadership & Execution: Build and lead Moonshot's PMO, including structure, governance, and standardized execution processes. Own delivery of all projects across schedule, budget, scope, and documentation. Drive consistent execution from sales handoff procurement production shipment turnover.
2. Cross-Functional Delivery: Align Engineering, Procurement, Manufacturing, and Operations around project priorities. Coordinate design, sourcing, and production to ensure on-time delivery. Identify risks early and eliminate bottlenecks across the full project lifecycle.
3. Team Leadership: Build, lead, and scale a high-performing team of Project Managers. Set clear expectations, KPIs, and accountability standards. Coach team on execution discipline, communication, and decision-making.
4. Customer & Commercial Management: Ensure clear, consistent communication across all customer projects. Own escalation, issue resolution, and high-risk project management. Lead disciplined change order management to protect scope, schedule, and margin.
5. Systems & Continuous Improvement: Implement tools and systems for project tracking, forecasting, and reporting. Improve execution speed, predictability, and documentation quality. Establish scalable processes to support company growth.
