This is a full-time, onsite role based at our headquarters in Denver, CO.

As the Program Director, Plant Control Systems, you will serve as the program-level owner for the Plant Control System within Xcimer’s IFE Fusion Plant architecture. In this role, you will provide program leadership, integration direction, requirement ownership, and cross-functional coordination to ensure that all Plant Control System sub-elements, and all other Fusion Plant elements, work together coherently within a unified control framework.

You will partner closely with technical architects and Subject Matter Experts, subsystem engineers, and other Program Directors to ensure alignment to top-level requirements, interfaces, safety expectations, operational needs, and program milestones. This role requires exceptional systems thinking, cross-element collaboration, and the ability to guide teams without direct line authority.
