Role
Who you are
- The ideal candidate will have experience in both technical and general project management and proven track record of working across company structures
- 2+ years of experience in operational, project-based roles, especially in data-driven cultures
- Technical and general project management experience: CHAOS is an engineering company and some of the projects will require technical acumen
- This person will be comfortable learning the technical aspects required to drive the project
- These projects can also be process-based and learning new, often byzantine government processes must get you fired up
- Working across the aisle(s): The most important experience and skillset required for success in this role is working across a company and navigating the different personalities, priorities, and timelines
- Yes, this role is to enable the business, but will require building trust across stakeholders and presenting necessary trade-offs in a professional manner
- Enjoy getting your hands dirty – literally: CHAOS is an engineering-first company with a hardware component
- Every role at CHAOS requires getting hands-on our technology in either development of customer demonstration conditions
- It is critical to our culture that every employee understands what we are building and why
What the job involves
- This role will enable business outcomes by skillfully accelerating multi-domain projects and capabilities critical to the business
- While residing within the Operations organization, this person will work across the company (Engineering, Business Development, Manufacturing, and Finance) to identify, organize, and lead projects that improve CHAOS’ ability to win, sometimes embedding within those parts of the business
- Expect this role to be very dynamic – solve one problem, transition it to an owner, and get started on the next
- Own the thing that has no owner. CHAOS is a dynamic company running directly into our customer’s most urgent needs. At this speed we identify critical gaps to successful execution that are multi-domain and where responsibility doesn’t reside in a single part of the company. This role’s task is own that gap, close it, and find the next gap. Repeat
- Work with data and systems to paint accurate pictures of how the business is performing and changing. Use tools like Excel and SQL to provide insights that help different parts of the business improve
- Project manage complex efforts and ensure timely and complete execution. This may include situations where the requirements or tasks to be done are not clear – it is your job to help figure out what needs to be done
Our take
In the modern world, defence industries must meet ever-evolving threats through new technologies, meaning that forward-thinking is the crux of battling sophisticated threats. CHAOS Industries consists of engineers and researchers building the next generation of defence and critical industry technologies.
Its products to date include the CHAOS Coherent Distributed Network, a time synchronicity platform, and HYDRA that facilitates land, sea and air-based detection and communications. Easy to integrate into existing defence systems, HYDRA can be deployed into challenging warfare environments - providing unique solutions for US defence industries.
In the face of a highly complex threat landscape, it’s unsurprising that CHAOS has received considerable funding. This will support the company’s commercial growth and product development. It’s also hired a former congressman and ex-CIA veteran as its Chief Strategy Officer, exemplifying its alignment with key defence sectors in the US.
