This is a high-visibility, fast-paced opportunity for someone proactive, analytical, and driven to tackle technical challenges from day one.

Assist in gathering technical requirements, configuring solutions, conducting testing, troubleshooting issues, and ensuring seamless deployments for key accounts
Shadow and contribute to project management activities, including scope definition, timeline tracking, resource allocation, risk assessment, and progress reporting
Learn engineering-focused project methodologies, client communication, and stakeholder coordination with executive guidance
Take ownership of assigned technical tasks and subtasks with increasing independence as skills develop
Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (e.g., Mechanical, Electrical, Civil, Software, Industrial, or related fields); recent graduates strongly encouraged to apply
0-3 years of professional experience; internships, co-ops, capstone projects, or engineering labs count
Strong technical aptitude and eagerness to learn complex enterprise software systems and engineering applications
High motivation, initiative, and a proactive mindset — you thrive in fast-paced environments and seek out technical challenges
Excellent problem-solving skills with a logical, analytical approach and attention to detail
Strong communication skills (written and verbal) and comfort working directly with executive leadership
Ability to quickly grasp engineering concepts and apply them to project management contexts
Experience or interest in SaaS, asset management, utilities, public works, or related industries is a plus
Must be able to work in-person full-time in our Sacramento office
We’re looking for someone hungry to grow into a technical project management leader in our organization. This role offers direct CEO mentorship, real-world engineering impact, and a clear path to advancement. If you’re technically sharp, highly driven, and ready to invest in learning our software to deliver successful projects, we’d love to hear from you!
