About Our Team

Org. 9213, Contract Security, is part of Sandia's Safeguards & Security (S&S) Center, whose primary function in support of Sandia's mission is to provide Members of the Workforce with tools and assistance needed to ensure the protection of information, resources, and people. We strive to develop strategic partnerships with the goal of fully integrating security into every aspect of the work performed at Sandia. The Contract Security Department comprises Contract Security Management (CSM), Requirements Management (RM), Controlled Documents, S&S Training, and S&S Policy. The Requirements Management team is responsible for ensuring effective flow-down of security requirements (e.g., from external sources such as DOE directives) and conveying appropriate requirements and guidance to affected programs and partnering with SFO and the Center Office. The S&S Training team partners with S&S programs to develop training material for S&S staff and members of the workforce. Policy and Controlled Documents partner with S&S programs to communicate security requirements to members of the work force via the Laboratory Policy System, and update and maintain the controlled documents library which contains over 200 controlled documents (operating procedures, manuals, program documents, plans, etc.).

This position is specifically for the CSM team. CSM is responsible for the facilitation and the life cycle of the facility clearance process, security activities, and flow down of security requirements to all cleared sub-contracting companies at Sandia. When an SNL subcontract requires personnel clearances in the performance of work, CSM ensures the company obtains a facility clearance prior to subcontractors accessing classified. The facility clearance process is facilitated by the CSM team. The CSM team also serves as the primary security point of contact for cleared subcontract companies. CSM is responsible for over 250 cleared subcontract companies.

Posting Duration

This posting will be open for application submissions for a minimum of seven (7) calendar days, including the 'posting date'. Sandia reserves the right to extend the posting date at any time.

Security Clearance

Sandia is required by DOE to conduct a pre-employment drug test and background review that includes checks of personal references, credit, law enforcement records, and employment / education verifications. Applicants for employment need to be able to obtain and maintain a DOE Q-level security clearance, which requires U.S. citizenship. If you hold more than one citizenship (i.e., of the U.S. and another country), your ability to obtain a security clearance may be impacted.

Applicants offered employment with Sandia are subject to a federal background investigation to meet the requirements for access to classified information or matter if the duties of the position require a DOE security clearance. Substance abuse or illegal drug use, falsification of information, criminal activity, serious misconduct or other indicators of untrustworthiness can cause a clearance to be denied or terminated by DOE, resulting in the inability to perform the duties assigned and subsequent termination of employment.

EEO

All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, or veteran status and any other protected class under state or federal law.

NNSA Requirements for MedPEDs

If you have a Medical Portable Electronic Device (MedPED), such as a pacemaker, defibrillator, drug-releasing pump, hearing aids, or diagnostic equipment and other equipment for measuring, monitoring, and recording body functions such as heartbeat and brain waves, if employed by Sandia National Laboratories you may be required to comply with NNSA security requirements for MedPEDs.

If you have a MedPED and you are selected for an on-site interview at Sandia National Laboratories, there may be additional steps necessary to ensure compliance with NNSA security requirements prior to the interview date.
