The Opportunity

DOTec is seeking an experienced Project Manager to establish disciplined, predictable execution across multidisciplinary engineering and architectural projects. This position will own project planning, coordination, schedule, budget, resource alignment, client communication, and closeout from authorization through final delivery.

About DOTec

DOTec Professional Corporation is a multidisciplinary engineering and architectural firm headquartered in St. Charles, Missouri. We provide structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, civil, and architectural services to clients across a diverse project portfolio. Our St. Charles office includes approximately 50 employees, supported by an extended network of approximately 70 contract professionals across five countries. We combine the access and agility of a closely connected firm with the reach of a larger practice.

We are intentionally multicultural and value the perspectives and strengths our team members bring to the work. Founder, owner, and CEO Dr. Ildefonso Gonzalez promotes personal achievement, continuous improvement, advanced education, professional licensure, and advancement from within. Approved licensure and credential-development expenses may qualify for reasonable reimbursement under Company policy.

What You Will Do

1. Own assigned projects from kickoff through closeout, including scope, work plan, schedule, budget, deliverables, and completion records.
2. Maintain practical project controls: milestone schedules, action registers, risk and issue logs, decision records, and change documentation.
3. Coordinate structural, MEP, civil, and architectural workstreams; align staffing and priorities with discipline leaders across domestic and international teams.
4. Lead internal and client meetings, communicate decisions clearly, assign accountable owners, and drive action items to closure.
5. Track fee performance, work-in-progress, percent complete, additional-services needs, invoicing readiness, and collection-support items with Finance and leadership.
6. Coordinate quality-control gates with licensed technical leaders and confirm administrative and document-control readiness before issuance.
7. Identify scope, schedule, budget, staffing, contract, and client risks early; recommend corrective action and escalate material issues promptly.
8. Support proposals, fee and schedule planning, project recovery, process improvement, and development of junior project-management staff.

What Success Looks Like

1. Teams have current schedules, clear priorities, named owners, and reliable delivery forecasts.
2. Scope changes and project risks are recognized early, documented, and resolved through a disciplined process.
3. Clients and leadership receive timely communication, coordinated deliverables, and dependable visibility into performance and risk.

Required Qualifications

1. Bachelor's degree in engineering, architecture, construction management, project management, or a related field; equivalent relevant education and A/E experience may be considered.
2. Seven (7) or more years of progressively responsible A/E, design-consulting, construction, or related professional-services experience.
3. Demonstrated success managing concurrent projects involving scope, schedules, budgets, technical teams, clients, and external stakeholders.
4. Working knowledge of professional-services agreements, additional services, quality-control workflows, permitting coordination, and project financial fundamentals.
5. Strong communication, meeting leadership, organization, judgment, conflict-resolution, and multicultural-team skills.
6. Proficiency with Microsoft 365 and project-management, document-control, accounting, or ERP systems; regular on-site attendance and occasional business travel.

Preferred Qualifications

1. Multidisciplinary A/E consulting experience and coordination of distributed or international teams.
2. PMP certification, PE licensure, architectural registration, or a comparable credential.
3. Experience with resource forecasting, percent-complete reporting, WIP review, invoicing coordination, and project recovery.
