robotics. We are recognized as national leader in developing and
fielding solutions that successfully operate in demanding missions
requiring the high levels of robustness and safety. Our department
has developed, integrated and deployed more than 30 significant
high-consequence robotic systems since the middle 1990s and is a
leader in developing cost-effective, reliable, automated systems.
Our department focuses on the mid to higher Total Readiness Level
(TRL) spectrum developing applications we field and then support
throughout its operational mission. This results in a very
customer-centric team enjoying regular interaction with our
sponsors and end-users, often with a significant onsite
presence.
Posting Duration
This posting will be open for application submissions for a minimum
of seven (7) calendar days, including the 'posting date'. Sandia

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.
