Job Description

TerraPower Isotopes® (TPI™) is seeking a Senior Project Manager to serve as TPI’s owner’s project manager for a first-of-a-kind, greenfield cGMP actinium-225 manufacturing facility—a multi-hundred-million-dollar capital program that combines pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing with shielded nuclear containment.

Requirements

Plan and integrate commissioning and qualification using a science- and risk-based approach consistent with ASTM E2500 and the ISPE Baseline Guide, Volume 5: Commissioning and Qualification, in partnership with Quality and Operations.
Ensure facility design, construction, and turnover support compliance with applicable cGMP requirements (21 CFR Parts 210 and 211; ICH Q7 as applicable), radiation protection and radioactive materials licensing requirements (10 CFR Part 20; 10 CFR Parts 30 and 40 or equivalent Agreement State regulations), and construction safety requirements (OSHA 29 CFR Part 1926).
Ensure project activities and documentation comply with export control requirements governing TPI technology and information.
B.S. in Engineering (Mechanical, Chemical, Civil, Nuclear, Electrical, or a related discipline) from an accredited university; advanced degree or Professional Engineer (PE) license a plus.
Minimum of 10 years of project management experience, including substantial experience as the owner’s project manager on large, complex capital facility projects.
Demonstrated end-to-end delivery of a greenfield or major capital facility through design, construction, commissioning, qualification, and start-up in a cGMP/pharmaceutical, nuclear, or comparable regulated environment.
Owner-side experience managing design-build or EPC partners under lump-sum or comparable contracting models, including contract administration, change order negotiation, and claims avoidance.
Hands-on experience establishing and operating an EVMS consistent with ANSI/EIA-748, and expert-level proficiency with Primavera P6 for CPM scheduling, integrated master schedule management, and schedule risk analysis.
Experience specifying, procuring, and managing FAT/SAT of complex engineered equipment—such as hot cells, isolators, shielded containment, or comparable long-lead process equipment—including with international vendors.
Working knowledge of commissioning and qualification practices (ASTM E2500, ISPE Baseline Guides) and cGMP facility requirements, including cleanroom design and classification.
Solid understanding of supply chain processes, contract administration, SCR review, and procurement change control.
Strong executive-level stakeholder management, with the ability to represent a major capital program to senior leadership and board-level stakeholders and drive alignment across engineering, quality, operations, and commercial teams.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to produce clear project documentation and concise leadership-level reporting.
PMP, PMI-SP, or AACE certification (CCP, PSP, or EVP) preferred.
Prior experience in a radiopharmaceutical, nuclear, or radiological facility environment strongly preferred, including familiarity with shielding, containment, and nuclear air treatment design (e.g., ASME AG-1).
The successful candidate will possess a high degree of trust and integrity, communicate openly, and display respect and a desire to foster teamwork.
Must be able to travel domestically and internationally, including extended periods at the project site and vendor facilities.
Actual position starting level and title will be determined based on assessment of qualifications.
