This is a highly visible, client-facing role within LJC/Clayco's design-build model. You will balance technical understanding, team leadership, and project management rigor while partnering closely with construction, process, and engineering leaders to deliver efficient, compliant, and buildable solutions. While this role is ideally suited for an experienced design project manager, LJC is also open to senior technical discipline leads (architecture or engineering) who demonstrate strong leadership skills, client presence, and readiness to step into a broader project management role.

Identify and proactively manage project risks, scope changes, and technical challenges throughout the design lifecycle. Oversee the development of designs from early planning and concept through detailed design and construction documentation. Ensure designs align with GMP, FDA, and other applicable regulatory requirements, engaging subject matter experts as needed. Review design deliverables, submittals, RFIs, and change documentation to maintain alignment with design intent and project objectives. Participate in site visits and coordination meetings to verify design intent is being executed and constructability concerns are addressed early. Serve as the primary design-side contact for assigned projects, maintaining clear, consistent, and proactive communication with clients. Lead design presentations, technical reviews, and project update meetings with clients and internal leadership. Build trusted client relationships through accountability, responsiveness, and technical credibility. Support front-end project efforts by contributing to proposal development, interviews, pursuit strategies, and early project definition. Mentor engineers and designers, supporting professional growth and development of future project leaders. Foster a collaborative, high-performance team environment aligned with Clayco's culture and values. Contribute to the development and refinement of LJC's design standards, tools, workflows, and best practices for life sciences projects. Requirements Bachelor's degree in architecture, engineering, or a related technical field. 10+ years of experience in engineering or architectural design for GMP, FDA, or other regulated manufacturing environments. Prior experience as a design project manager or demonstrated leadership as a senior technical discipline lead on complex projects.
