Company Description
L.L. Blue Engineering is a consulting firm specializing in the design, cybersecurity, and transformation of industrial control systems. With over 16 years of experience, we support clients in modernizing and integrating their critical systems to ensure security, reliability, and efficiency. Known for our expertise in systems integration, we prioritize the protection and optimization of critical infrastructure.
Our comprehensive services enable businesses to stay secure and competitive in an ever-evolving technological landscape.
PurposeOwn project delivery execution and build the operational infrastructure — SOPs, workflows, and repeatable processes — that enables L.L. Blue Engineering to scale reliably without the Managing Principal serving as the delivery bottleneck.
This role is central to L.L. Blue Engineering 's strategic direction: we are actively building an agent-first project management infrastructure, and this person is its strategic architect and implementation driver.
Working under the technical direction of the Managing Principal, the PM defines what the agent-first PMO needs to accomplish across the full delivery lifecycle, drives its implementation, and validates that it is producing measurable improvements in delivery outcomes.
The Project Controls Coordinator owns daily operational execution and workflow refinement — the PM owns the strategic architecture that makes the whole system work.
Position Summary
- Project Delivery
- Own project execution from kickoff through closeout across engineering, procurement, construction, and maintenance scopes
- Manage project schedules, budgets, milestones, and deliverable tracking across all active engagements
- Serve as the primary coordination layer between engineering teams, field technicians, subcontractors, and clients
- Identify and escalate scope, schedule, and risk issues proactively — before they reach the Managing Principal
- Lead project kickoff, status, and closeout meetings; maintain clear action registers and decision logs
- Estimating & Proposal Support Coordinate proposal and estimating activities for new opportunities, including scope clarification, work package structuring, and schedule development
- Work alongside the Managing Principal and technical leads to translate scope into executable work packages with realistic labor, material, and timeline assumption
- Oversee proposal assembly and submission logistics in coordination with the Project Controls Coordinator
- Maintain proposal templates, bid logs, and opportunity tracking systems
- Agent First PMO
- Strategic Architecture & Implementation
- Own the strategic architecture of L.L. BLUE ENGINEERING 's agent-first PMO — defining what the system needs to accomplish across the full delivery lifecycle, from proposal through project closeout
- Drive implementation of agent-assisted workflows — rolling out new capabilities, onboarding the team, and ensuring adoption across active projects
- Define success metrics for the agent-first PMO and validate that implemented workflows are producing measurable improvements in delivery quality, speed, and consistence
- Partner with the Managing Principal on platform direction, tooling decisions, and agentic roadmap alignment
- Work closely with the Project Controls Coordinator to receive operational feedback and translate it into strategic platform improvements
- Ensure the agent-first PMO architecture connects across all delivery functions — engineering, field execution, estimating, proposals, and client communication
- Stay current on emerging agentic platforms, orchestration tools, and industrial applications — evaluating relevance and bringing recommendations to the Managing Principal
- Process & Systems Development
- Build and maintain L.L. BLUE ENGINEERING 's project delivery SOPs, templates, checklists, and playbooks across all delivery phasesEstablish and manage document control, change management, and closeout processesDrive continuous improvement in delivery workflows — identifying gaps, reducing rework, and improving handoff quality between engineering, field, and client teamsTeam & Operations CoordinationMaintain resource visibility across active projects and flag capacity constraints earlySupport onboarding of new project team members into delivery standards, tools, and agent-first workflowsMentor and develop the Project Controls Coordinator — supporting their growth as the operational backbone of the agent-first PMOCoordinate with HR, procurement, and administrative functions to support project readiness
Qualifications
- Highly process-oriented — building SOPs, playbooks, and structured workflows is a demonstrated strength
- Strong project management fundamentals — scheduling, scope control, risk management, and stakeholder communication
- Genuine conviction that agentic AI represents a fundamental shift in how project operations work — with the strategic thinking to design systems around that conviction
- Enough technical fluency in industrial systems integration (ICS, instrumentation, controls, construction) to hold scope conversations without constant translation
- Demonstrated ability to design, implement, and validate operational systems and workflows at a strategic level
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills; comfortable interfacing with field teams, engineering leads, and executive stakeholders
- Strong collaborative relationship with operational team members — able to translate ground-level feedback into strategic platform decisions
- Thrives in growing, fast-moving firms where processes are being invented, not just followed
- Strong proficiency with project management and collaboration tools; hands-on experience with AI platforms and workflow automation strongly preferred
- Education & Experience
- Bachelor's degree preferred; equivalent combination of education and relevant experience will be considered 7–10 years of project management experience with meaningful exposure to industrial, engineering, or technical services environments
- Demonstrated experience building delivery processes, SOPs, or PMO infrastructure from the ground up — not just managing within existing frameworks
- Experience with multi-discipline project scopes spanning engineering, procurement, and field execution preferred
- Hands-on experience designing or implementing AI-assisted workflows or automation platforms strongly preferred
- Training & Certifications PMP or equivalent project management certification preferred
- Familiarity with industrial safety practices (OSHA 10 minimum) preferred
- Demonstrated experience evaluating, configuring, and implementing agentic workflow platforms
- Document control and change management practices
- Licenses & Screening
- Valid driver's license required
- Background check and drug screening as required per client and contract requirements
- Ability to obtain site access credentials and required clearances where applicable
Working Conditions
- Hybrid role — remote-capable with periodic presence at HQ and client sites
- Travel may be required for project kickoffs, site visits, and key client milestones
- Extended hours may be required during active proposal windows, commissioning events, and critical project milestones Fast-paced, deadline-driven environment with frequent context switching across multiple concurrent projects
- Compensation
- Compensation is commensurate with experience, qualifications, and demonstrated capability.
- L.L. Blue Engineering, LLC is an equal opportunity employer and offers a comprehensive benefits package.
