At Aeon, we design, build, and test modular weapon systems for ground and air platforms. We take pride in our dynamic and small team that allows us to iterate, build and test quickly. If you are looking to solve hard technical problems with a team of passionate engineers in a hands-on, fast-paced environment, Aeon is the place for you. We are looking for a Project Manager to help build a world-class manufacturing organization as we transition from new product introduction (NPI) and development into full-rate production of complex guided-munition subassemblies and final assemblies. Reporting to the Vice President of Manufacturing, you will lead multiple concurrent, high-impact initiatives, including facility build-outs, ERP implementation, and NPI program execution. As a true builder, you will own integrated project plans, critical milestones, risk management, and cross-functional coordination across manufacturing, engineering, quality, supply chain, and external partners. While technical ownership resides with functional subject matter experts, you will be accountable for driving execution, managing dependencies, maintaining visibility to leadership, and ensuring organizational and customer commitments are delivered on time and on target. This is a full-time, in-person role located in Austin, TX with plans to move to Cedar Park, TX early 2027.
