Job details

Pay: The intent of this hiring action is to staff this position at the RCO-2 to RCO-4 level, which is an intermediate to senior-career level position with a salary range of $83,985 to $168,192.

Posted: Sep 18, 2026

Original job description

Priority will be given to the following designated employment equity groups: women, Indigenous Peoples* (First Nations, Inuit and Métis), persons with disabilities and racialized persons*.

* The Employment Equity Act, which is under review, uses the terminology Aboriginal peoples and visible minorities.

Candidates are asked to self-declare when applying to this hiring process.

City: Ottawa

Organizational Unit: Aerospace

Classification: RCO

Tenure: Term

Duration: Until 31 March 2028

Language Requirements: English

Work arrangements: Due to the nature of the work and operational requirements, this position may be eligible for a limited hybrid work arrangement (combination of working onsite and telework).

At the NRC, we recognize that Indigenous candidates may have important connections to their communities and you may be eligible for an exception to this work arrangement. Alternative work arrangements may also be considered to accommodate candidates as required. To learn more about these options, please contact the NRC Hiring team using the contact information below.

Note: This position is being re-posted. If you had previously applied, there is no need to re-apply.

Defence Industrial Strategy

The NRC has an important role within the Government of Canada's Defence Industrial Strategy, accelerating research and innovation, and helping Canadian businesses develop leading-edge technologies for civilian and military use.

With expertise across fields such as transportation, quantum science, medical countermeasures and advanced manufacturing, the NRC is hiring to drive the development of national sovereign defence capabilities. The following role will support the NRC’s contributions to defence priorities.

The role

The NRC is building new capabilities to help Canada accelerate the development, integration and adoption of emerging drone, counter-drone and autonomous systems technologies. At the centre of this effort is the Drone Innovation Hub (DIH) and its Aurora Shield program - bringing together NRC researchers, engineers and facilities with the Canadian Armed Forces, Department of National Defence, industry, academia and other partners to tackle some of Canada's most important defence and security technology challenges.

We are looking for a Senior Project Manager to help turn that ambition into action.

Working alongside the Aurora Shield Program Director, the successful candidate will help shape and deliver a rapidly growing portfolio of research, technology development and innovation activities. This is not a traditional project management role. Individual projects are led by researcher and engineer Project Managers from across the NRC; the Senior Project Manager will work across those projects - helping PMs succeed, maintaining coherence across the portfolio, solving problems and ensuring that the program delivers as a whole.

The role also extends beyond the individual projects. Aurora Shield is developing new ways for NRC, DND, the Canadian Armed Forces and industry to work together, including major ecosystem wide initiatives. The successful candidate will help take these initiatives from ambitious concepts to executable activities - working through the plans, partnerships, budgets, documentation and details required to make them real.

The result is a role with an unusually broad range: from strategy to execution, and from individual projects to the broader Canadian defence innovation ecosystem. On any given day, the Senior Project Manager might help a Project Manager resolve a delivery challenge, work through program budgets and priorities, develop the implementation plan for a new Aurora Shield initiative, prepare material for senior decision-makers, or engage with DND, other government departments and Canadian industry and academia.

We are looking for someone who thrives in that environment - someone who can bring structure to complexity, move comfortably between technical and programmatic discussions, build relationships across organizations, and turn good ideas into delivered outcomes. The Senior Project Manager would be someone who shares our core values of Integrity, Excellence, Respect and Creativity.

Experience coordinating a portfolio of related projects or activities and identifying dependencies, risks and opportunities across multiple projects;
Experience developing detailed implementation plans, project documentation, business cases, proposals, plans or similar products from higher-level concepts or strategic direction; and
Experience engaging and coordinating with multiple internal and external stakeholders.

Assets:

Experience in aerospace, defence and security, autonomous systems, drones or other complex technology-development environments;
Experience working with the Department of National Defence, Canadian Armed Forces, other government departments or the Canadian defence industry;
Experience with intellectual property, collaborative research agreements, contracting, procurement or other mechanisms supporting complex research and development activities.

*Significant experience is referring to between 2 to 6 years.
