Project Management Analyst Visa Sponsorship Jobs in Colorado

INTRODUCTION

The 3D Systems team in Littleton, Colorado is seeking an experienced Specialist Program Manager with a strong technical background and proven project management expertise to lead strategic initiatives that support product onboarding, new product introduction (NPI), production process development, technology transfer, and continuous process improvement.

Success in this role requires exceptional organizational and leadership skills, the ability to influence cross-functional teams in a matrixed environment, and a proactive approach to identifying and mitigating risks. The Senior Program Manager will partner closely with Engineering, Operations, Quality, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Regulatory, Commercial, and Customer teams to ensure successful execution while fostering collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement across the organization.
