Senior Technical Project Manager - AVEVA PI Implementation
Project Overview
This is a net-new AVEVA PI implementation, not a replacement of an existing system. The organization is seeking a subject matter expert with strong AVEVA PI experience to lead the implementation and expansion of the platform. The infrastructure is already established, so the focus will be on solution delivery, data integration, and platform optimization rather than foundational infrastructure work.
Candidates with backgrounds in data engineering, data analytics, data science, data migration, or industrial data platforms will be well-positioned for this role.
Required Experience
- 10+ years of experience as a Technical Project Manager leading enterprise technology implementations
- Direct experience implementing AVEVA PI (OSIsoft PI) or comparable industrial data platforms
- Strong understanding of data integration, system interfaces, and enterprise reporting solutions
- Deep knowledge of AVEVA PI components, including Asset Framework, templates, elements, attributes, and time-series data structures
- Previous hands-on technical experience in areas such as data mapping, data migration, or systems integration
- Proven ability to drive project delivery and execution, beyond project administration and reporting
- Experience leading large, complex, cross-functional technical teams
- Strong critical thinking, problem-solving, and stakeholder management skills
- Experience managing enterprise data platform, reporting, analytics, or operational technology implementations
About the Platform
AVEVA PI is an industrial data platform that collects, stores, and visualizes real-time operational data from equipment, sensors, assets, and systems. It enables organizations to improve reporting, analytics, monitoring, and operational decision-making through centralized access to asset performance and operational data.
Position Summary
We are seeking a Senior Technical Project Manager to lead the implementation and expansion of an AVEVA PI platform as part of a broader enterprise data and analytics initiative. This role requires a delivery-focused project leader with hands-on technical experience implementing data platforms, reporting solutions, or industrial operational technology systems.
The successful candidate will work closely with technical, engineering, operations, and business stakeholders to ensure successful deployment, integration, and adoption of the platform.
