Help Build the Future of Critical Minerals

Mariana Minerals is a software-first, vertically integrated minerals company focused on supplying the materials that power modern energy, AI, and defense technologies. We’re seeking a driven and detail-oriented Project Scheduler to play a pivotal role in delivering complex infrastructure and industrial projects across the United States.

As a Project Scheduler, you’ll be at the center of our project execution—owning the integrated schedule for multiple, fast-moving workstreams. You’ll collaborate closely with engineering, construction, and commercial teams, ensuring that our projects stay on track and our teams are aligned from planning through commissioning.

What You’ll Do

  • Develop and manage integrated project schedules across engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning.
  • Translate execution plans into detailed, logic-linked schedules with clear critical paths and milestones.
  • Lead weekly schedule updates, progress tracking, and review meetings to keep all stakeholders informed and accountable.
  • Analyze float, identify schedule risks, and develop recovery strategies to keep projects moving forward.
  • Support scenario planning and tradeoff analysis for key milestones and resource bottlenecks.
  • Coordinate closely with on-site teams to ensure schedules reflect real-world progress and constraints.
  • Produce tailored reporting for internal teams, contractors, and executive leadership.
  • Leverage digital platforms like Alice, Wrike, or Smartsheet to streamline planning and collaboration.

What You’ll Bring

  • 3–8 years of experience in project scheduling for infrastructure, energy, or industrial projects.
  • Proficiency with scheduling tools such as Primavera P6, MS Project, or similar.
  • Strong understanding of execution sequencing, procurement dependencies, and field constraints.
  • Experience supporting fast-paced projects with evolving scope and design inputs.
  • Ability to work cross-functionally in a dynamic, high-growth environment.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to engage both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Familiarity with project management tools like Wrike, Smartsheet, or Asana.
  • Exceptional attention to detail, analytical thinking, and follow-through.

Bonus Points

  • Experience with modular or phased execution models.
  • Background in early-stage industrial projects or owner-developer teams.
  • Exposure to Alice Technologies or similar generative scheduling platforms.
  • PSP certification or equivalent credentials (preferred, not required).
