    Job Description

    Contingent opportunity: Axyde Analytics is building a proposed team for the anticipated U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) Fellowship Program Administration and Research Support requirement. This is advance recruiting, not an awarded or funded position. Hiring, start date, hours and final duties depend on contract award, funding and task-order requirements.

    Work arrangement: Remote administrative work is proposed, with travel and onsite support at ERDC facilities as required. Midlothian, Virginia is Axyde's administrative base; final duty location and remote eligibility will be determined by the requirement. This is not a guarantee of fully remote work.

    Fellowship Operations Manager

    Lead day-to-day fellowship administration under the Program Director, connecting university partners, researchers and ERDC laboratories. This is our priority recruiting role. The proposed program supports postdoctoral, senior, journeyman, short-term and summer research participants.

    Responsibilities

    • Build and operate workflows from recruitment and credential/eligibility verification through appointments, onboarding, renewals and offboarding.
    • Coordinate fellowship payments with finance; maintain accurate appointment dates, payment changes, approvals and audit-ready records.
    • Manage concurrent laboratory task orders, schedules, participant issues, university interfaces and administrative deliverables.
    • Coordinate travel, facility access, required training and IP-agreement administration with responsible specialists.
    • Maintain quality controls, operating procedures, metrics, monthly meeting inputs, quarterly reports and accurate invoicing support.

    What we seek

    • Direct operational responsibility for a fellowship, research participation, postdoctoral, internship or comparable university/government appointment program.
    • Hands-on experience with eligibility, appointments, participant records and stipend or participant-payment coordination.
    • Evidence of managing multiple stakeholders, deadlines and participant issues, with strong written communication and data controls.
    • Ability to explain cohort scale, systems used and measurable delivery outcomes.

    Preferred: Federal laboratory or STEM fellowship experience; multi-site program delivery; experience establishing a new program or improving appointment/payment workflows. These are Axyde recruiting preferences; final government qualifications have not been issued.

    To apply: Submit your resume and a brief summary of directly relevant programs, your responsibilities, approximate participant volumes where applicable, systems used, availability and willingness to travel. Do not include confidential client information. Final compensation and employment terms will be discussed when the role scope is established.

    Axyde Analytics welcomes qualified applicants from all backgrounds. Selection will be based on job-related qualifications and applicable contract requirements.
