Vehicle Integration Project Manager

Role Overview We are seeking a highly skilled Project Manager to lead and coordinate vehicle-based system integration projects involving radar systems, human–machine interfaces (HMI), shelters, and trailer-mounted subsystems. The role involves close collaboration across mechanical, electrical, software, and systems engineering teams to deliver fully integrated mission-ready platforms for defense and homeland security applications. The ideal candidate should have a strong background in systems engineering and project execution, with hands-on experience managing the integration of sensors, power systems, communication networks, and operator consoles onto vehicles or mobile platforms. Key Responsibilities  Lead end-to-end program management for vehicle-mounted radar systems, shelters, and trailer integrations.  Plan, monitor, and control project deliverables — ensuring adherence to scope, schedule, cost, and quality targets.  Interface with defense customers, vehicle OEMs, and internal engineering teams for configuration, testing, and validation.  Oversee the system integration process, including mechanical mounting, electrical/data interconnects, and compliance testing.  Define and manage integration test plans, including FAT/SAT and user trials.  Maintain program documentation — schedules, risk registers, configuration control, and design reviews.  Manage vendor coordination for fabrication, wiring harnesses, mechanical mounts, and auxiliary systems.  Ensure compliance with defense quality and safety standards (MIL-STD, JSS, DAP-2020).  Drive continuous improvement in project execution, integration processes, and cross- functional communication. Required Qualifications & Experience  Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics, or Systems Engineering. Master’s preferred.  8–15 years of experience in managing system integration programs for military or industrial vehicles, shelters, or mobile platforms.  Proven experience with radar systems, EO/IR sensors, command & control units, and power distribution subsystems.  Strong understanding of vehicle dynamics, mechanical mounting, power management, and data interface protocols.  Familiarity with defense procurement processes, user trials, documentation, and QA/QC requirements.  Demonstrated success in stakeholder and vendor management, and ability to work in cross-functional environments.  Strong communication, leadership, and reporting skills. Desirable Skills  Experience in Defence Mobility Systems, Command & Control vehicle integration, or Shelterized radar systems.  Exposure to Autonomous Vehicle Control, HMI design, and Ruggedized computing platforms.  Understanding of CAD-based integration layouts and system wiring diagrams.  Familiarity with industrial licensing, DGQA/DGAQA processes, and site-level system acceptance.
