Manage wildfire mitigation initiatives by coordinating the implementation of Enhanced Powerline Safety Settings (EPSS) across distribution lines in high fire risk areas. Prepare program reports, timelines, budgets, and leadership updates while overseeing project scope, schedule, cost, and risk.

  • Prepare and produce project management reports, timelines, budgets, and documentation
  • Independently manage project plan deliverables and identify plan gaps and closure plans
  • Assist with project financials including budgeting, forecasting, and actuals tracking
  • Support RFP and contract management processes and manage assigned contracts and payments
  • Manage resources and coordinate internal and external processes to ensure project deliverables are completed

The technical scope centers on program execution for EPSS rollout, not software engineering. The role manages cost tracking and reconciliation, RFP/RFQ and contract workflows, and resource planning to drive timely project deliverables and milestones.

They have strong experience with project scope, schedule, cost, and risk management, including budgeting, forecasting, and actuals tracking. They are comfortable managing RFP/RFQ and contract processes, coordinating internal teams and external partners, and providing regular status updates to leadership.
