Some examples include: chem/bio agent mitigation and neutralizat ion, dispersal device characterization, deployable onsite analysis of biological threats, threat containment, decontamination methodology testing, and situational/environmental awareness through atmospheric science. We apply chemical, biological, and atmospheric sciences to the mission of WMD counterterrorism to provide federal sponsors with key technologies, modeling/simulation, testing/evaluation, chem/bio analysis, and atmospheric science capabilities to support critical decision making before, during, and after WMD events.
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.
