Location Duivendrecht, Netherlands --- *As a Senior R&D Project Manager, you keep the big picture of everything we develop, so our ideas reach the air on time.* **On a mission** DeltaQuad develops advanced VTOL UAV systems for defense, public safety, and commercial operators worldwide. Demand is growing fast, and so is the number of developments we run in parallel. That is why we are building an organization that can scale with it. **The role** Our R&D department runs a wide range of work at the same time: our own roadmap developments, custom customer integrations, service and support, and production support. You are a senior Project Manager who brings oversight and structure to it all. You keep the big picture. Our Program Managers lead the technical content of their developments, while you check in with each of them, track top-level milestones and deadlines, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks, internally or with external parties. You keep our project management system (ClickUp) up to date and turn it into clear updates for our Manager R&D & Engineering. You also serve as a sparring partner on our ways of working. As we grow, how we organize our projects keeps evolving, and you help decide which approach fits each project. With the number of parallel developments set to grow, your overview keeps R&D in control. **What you bring** You are an experienced project manager with a strong sense of high-tech product development. You understand what engineers are working on well enough to ask the right questions, spot risks early, and bring structure without slowing the team down. You hold a Bachelor's or Master's degree in an engineering or other technical field, or you have comparable experience. You also bring: - Around 7 to 10 years of experience in project management, preferably in R&D or high-tech product development - Proven proficiency with a project management tool such as ClickUp, Jira, or Monday - Solid knowledge of Scrum, Waterfall, and hybrid methodologies, and of when to apply which - Experience managing milestones and deadlines across internal teams and external partners - Professional proficiency in English **Nice to have** Experience with UAVs, aerospace, defense, robotics, or other complex hardware and software products. **What success looks like** At any moment, you know where every R&D project stands, which deadlines are coming up, and where we need to act. Milestones are met or escalated in time, ClickUp reflects reality, and our ways of working keep improving as we grow. **What we offer** - Competitive salary - A central role in a fast-growing R&D department, with room to shape how we work - Work on advanced UAV technology with real-world applications - 27 vacation days based on full-time employment - A 38-hour workweek with flexible working hours - €0.25/km travel reimbursement or full reimbursement of second-class public transportation - An excellent pension scheme through PME - Lunch at DeltaQuad, monthly team drinks and an open, informal culture where your expertise counts **Please note:** As part of our recruitment process, we may request a Certificate of Conduct (VOG) and conduct a background screening in accordance with our screening policy. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@id":"https://www.dronejobs.app/#website","@type":"WebSite","inLanguage":"en","name":"DroneJobs","url":"https://www.dronejobs.app","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.dronejobs.app/#identity"}},{"@id":"https://www.dronejobs.app/jobs/deltaquad-senior-r-d-project-manager-high-tech-product-development#webpage","@type":"WebPage","description":"Duivendrecht, Netherlands · On-site — As a Senior R&D Project Manager, you keep the big picture of everything we develop, so our ideas reach the air…","name":"Senior R&D Project Manager - high-tech… · Duivendrecht · DeltaQuad","url":"https://www.dronejobs.app/jobs/deltaquad-senior-r-d-project-manager-high-tech-product-development","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https://www.dronejobs.app/jobs/deltaquad-senior-r-d-project-manager-high-tech-product-development#breadcrumb"},"isPartOf":{"@id":"https://www.dronejobs.app/#website"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https://www.dronejobs.app/jobs/deltaquad-senior-r-d-project-manager-high-tech-product-development"]}]},{"@id":"https://www.dronejobs.app/#identity","@type":"Organization","description":"Connecting the world's best drone pilots with top-tier companies.
