Our team provides guidance and expertise on life-cycle testing, as well as partnering with Nuclear Deterrence agencies to develop equipment required for testing the components and products. Our efforts directly support the Annual Assessment process, as well as reliability and surety assessments for the enduring stockpile.

On any given day, you may be called on to:

• Plan and manage the execution of engineering programs for Sandia's customers and sponsors.

• Serve as the primary representative to customers and partners for Nuclear Deterrence modernization programs through the negotiation, management, and delivery of all component evaluation scope for several technology families.

• Establish strong relationships with key influencers and collaborate with cross-functional teams, including systems and component engineering teams, our Science and Technology (S&T) community, independent technical assessment partners, and production agencies.

• Identify defects and aging trends, understand performance margins, and make predictive assessments of weapon components and their materials through component evaluation activities.

• Chair Significant Finding Investigations (SFIs) to determine the root cause of anomalies discovered during component evaluations and assess the impact to the safety, security, and reliability of the stockpile.

Requirements

We require a Master's degree in nuclear engineering, chemistry, materials science, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, or systems engineering, plus one (1) year of experience. Academic or job experience in areas such as engineering design, qualification, production, or related modeling/simulation projects is also required. Ability to obtain and maintain a DOE Q-level security clearance and Sigma 15 access, which may require polygraphy testing, is necessary. A PhD in the above-stated field is desired, as well as experience designing and qualifying hardware, software, or test equipment, identifying, preventing, and mitigating technical product defects and risks, and knowledge and/or experience of system engineering concepts and principles. Strong oral, written, presentation, and negotiation skills and ability to effectively partner in diverse team environments are also required.

About Our Team

The Integrated Stockpile Evaluation (ISE, Group 2250) mission is to provide trusted leadership for Sandia and NNSA in the planning, development, execution, and analysis of an effective stockpile evaluation program while providing exemplary knowledge management for the program to support stockpile decisions. ISE focuses on providing quality products (data, testers, etc.) to support and enable stockpile decisions. The ISE team ensures operations comply with laboratory policy, to include the Realize Product Procedures (RPPs) and corporate policies.
