What are the responsibilities and job description for the Project Manager - Drilling Tool Design position at Nathan James Consulting Ltd?
An innovative technology company in the downhole sector are looking to hire a Project Manager with extensive experience of developing drilling or downhole tools as part of their exciting growth in the US. This is a new role that has been created due to recent expansion and the creation of a new Houston based engineering team, so is a fantastic chance to join a team at the start of its growth.
Working as part of a small global team, you will be responsible for the Project Management of innovative drilling tool systems from engineering development through to testing and commercialization over the coming years.
Whilst not a "start up" business, it is a "start up" office so applicants should be comfortable with dealing with many facets of the development lifecycle from design to analysis to field testing. This role is purely focused on new product development.
You should have extensive Project Management experience (15 years) of cross functional engineering projects focused on downhole tools within a HPHT environment, ideally with products such as LWD / MWD, RSS, drilling motors, wireline etc, combined with a relevant undergraduate (and ideally post graduate) engineering degree and project management qualifications.
