Who We Are Looking For 

Phoenix Tailings receives significant non-dilutive funding from federal agencies including DOE and ARPA-E. As we grow our grant portfolio, we need a dedicated owner for everything that happens after award the compliance obligations, agency relationships, reporting cadences, and milestone certifications that protect our funding and our reputation with the federal government. 

The Grant Program Manager owns that function entirely. This role is not just about writing grants it is about fulfilling them. You will be the primary point of contact between Phoenix Tailings and our grant-issuing agencies, responsible for keeping every active award in good standing and ensuring our internal teams meet every obligation on time. 

 
 

Key Responsibilities

  • Own the compliance calendar for each active award and yearly reporting requirements: reporting deadlines, milestone certifications, budget period renewals, and closeout requirements
  • Lead award deliverable management across all active grants, ensuring technical, financial, and programmatic deliverables are scoped, tracked, reviewed, and submitted in accordance with award requirements and internal timelines.

  • Manage grant drawdowns, personnel time tracking on active awards, invoicing, and budget tracking in coordination with Finance; flag variances and scope changes that require agency approval
  • Prepare and submit all required progress reports, financial reports, and milestone documentation to issuing agencies
  • Maintain a centralized record system for all active awards: award documents, modifications, correspondence, and compliance artifacts
  • Monitor and interpret agency guidance and award-specific terms and conditions; flag regulatory changes that affect compliance posture
  • Identify and escalate risks potential non-compliance, missed milestones, scope drift before they become problems
  • Support post-award audits and agency site visits
  • Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience in federal grant administration or post-award management, ideally in energy, defense, advanced manufacturing, or clean tech
  • Direct experience managing awards from DOE, ARPA-E, NSF, NIH, NDA, or similar agencies
  • Experience managing project deliverables and coordinating technical teams to meet contractual milestones, reporting requirements, and program objectives.
  • Organized and detail-oriented able to manage multiple active awards simultaneously without dropping compliance threads
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills; comfortable corresponding directly with federal program officers
  • Experience coordinating cross-functionally with technical, finance, and legal teams
  • Familiarity with federal reporting portals (e.g., PAMS, grants.gov, SAM.gov)
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience at a startup or early-stage company where you had to build processes, not just follow them
  • Background in or exposure to technical R&D environments (not required to be an engineer)
