What you need

  • Active U.S. Top Secret or DOE Q security clearance.
  • Experience with munitions field testing, explosives training, or leadership in explosive operations environments.
  • Bachelor’s degree in engineering or a related technical discipline is preferred, but hands-on explosives experience is more important than a specific degree path.
