About the Role 

CLX Engineering is seeking a highly organized and execution-focused Project Manager to support our growing software and digital solutions team within airport and industrial automation environments. 

This role is specifically focused on software delivery, operational coordination, customer communication, and deployment execution for enterprise software initiatives, CMMS platforms, and operational technology projects. 

The ideal candidate thrives in fast-paced environments and understands how to manage complex software deployments inside live operational facilities such as airports, logistics hubs, and industrial environments. This position works closely with Product 

Management, Software Engineering, airport stakeholders, and executive leadership to ensure projects remain aligned to customer expectations, schedules, operational constraints, and deployment goals.
