The successful candidate will develop and maintain security documentation, ensuring compliance with applicable Department of Energy (DOE) and Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regulations, directives, and orders. Additionally, you will coordinate activities across multiple security organizations, conduct program self-assessments, support document change reviews and evaluations, and qualify as a Derivative Classifier and UCNI Reviewing Official.
