We work with the Department of War to provide the high-speed capabilities our nation and its allies need to maintain a durable, asymmetric advantage.

About the Role:

Hermeus is seeking a hands-on, proactive Facilities Manager to lead facilities operations at our Atlanta manufacturing facility.

Reporting to the Senior Manager of Facilities, the Facilities Manager serves as the primary facilities partner for the Atlanta site. This individual will lead day-to-day facilities operations, maintenance programs, space planning initiatives, site-level project execution, operational readiness efforts, and facilities financial stewardship. The Facilities Manager will work closely with Production, Engineering, Test, OSRC, Security, IT, Workplace Operations, and other stakeholders to ensure facility requirements are identified early, operational risks are mitigated, and facilities do not become a constraint to execution.

The ideal candidate combines strong technical facilities knowledge with a high level of ownership, urgency, organization, customer service, and business acumen.
