Project Manager, RZR Deployment

Location: Houston, TX, United States

The Project Manager plans, coordinates, and drives execution of RZR deployments and the supporting readiness work required to move RZR from Canrig Engineering validation and initial field commissioning into sustained Drilling Operations ownership. Working day to day with the project managers embedded in Canrig Engineering, Rig Engineering, Manufacturing, Drilling Operations, Service Delivery, and Quality, and with HSE, Commercial, and customer teams, this role converts the deployment strategy set by the Director into one integrated schedule, readiness gates, action plans, and clear owners. The Project Manager also owns the status reporting and presentations that give the Director, VP Drilling, and senior leadership a consistent view of RZR deployment health.

This role delivers the disciplined project execution that customers have asked for: trusted timelines, a repeatable process, visible risks, and closed-loop follow-through on training, spares, documentation, and test-rig activity. The Project Manager does not hold technical design authority (retained by Canrig Engineering) or sustained field operating ownership (held by Drilling Operations); the role owns the plan, the coordination, and the evidence that each deployment is ready.
