Position Overview:
We are in search of a Senior Research and Development Electrical Engineer with specialized knowledge in high voltage phenomena.

Your responsibilities will include supporting the design and execution of experiments related to lightning, high energy electrical breakdown, and electrostatic discharge (ESD) low energy electrical breakdown, along with advanced research initiatives.

This role necessitates a solid understanding of fundamental principles, practices, and procedures associated with high voltage and its effects.

Moreover, you will lead test execution, advance research initiatives, and act as a liaison for clients and partners from various national laboratories.

About Our Team:
The Electrical Sciences department is responsible for defining and managing deliverables for electromagnetic qualification programs related to weapon systems, as well as the development of new initiatives.

Our expertise encompasses electrostatic discharge, lightning/electrical breakdown, plasma physics, electromagnetics, advanced power electronics design and manufacturing, advanced controls, and the development and analysis of innovative materials and components.

The department collaborates closely with other skilled and motivated teams and organizations.

This team is part of the Radiation, Electrical and High Energy Density Science (REHEDS) Research Foundation at Sandia.

Application Process:


This position will remain open for applications for a minimum of seven calendar days, including the posting date. Sandia reserves the right to extend the application period as necessary.

Security Clearance Requirements:


Sandia is mandated by the DOE to conduct a pre-employment drug test and background review, which includes checks of personal references, credit history, law enforcement records, and employment/education verifications.
Applicants must be able to obtain and maintain a DOE Q-level security clearance, which requires U.S. citizenship. If you hold dual citizenship, your ability to obtain a security clearance may be affected.


Applicants offered a position at Sandia will undergo a federal background investigation to meet the requirements for access to classified information, if the role necessitates a DOE security clearance.


Substance abuse, illegal drug use, falsification of information, criminal activity, serious misconduct, or other indicators of untrustworthiness may result in denial or termination of clearance by the DOE, which could lead to the inability to fulfill assigned duties and subsequent termination of employment.


Equal Employment Opportunity:


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


Additional Requirements:


If you possess a Medical Portable Electronic Device (MedPED), such as a pacemaker, defibrillator, or other diagnostic equipment, you may be required to comply with specific security requirements if employed by Sandia National Laboratories.


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