Position Overview:
Infinity Systems Engineering is seeking motivated individuals interested in pursuing a future full-time career as a Mission Specialist - PBWO, supporting military satellite communications operations at Schriever Space Force Base in Colorado. This unique temporary, part-time opportunity is designed for qualified candidates who do not currently possess the required Top Secret security clearance but may be eligible to obtain one. During the temporary employment period, the selected candidate will perform a limited number of paid, authorized duties while undergoing the applicable security clearance process, subject to government security sponsorship requirements and approval. This position is intentionally structured to accommodate candidates who wish to maintain their existing full-time employment while pursuing the possibility of a future full-time opportunity with Infinity. Outside employment is permitted subject to applicable conflict-of-interest, confidentiality, security, and employment requirements. Temporary work assignments will be coordinated based on business needs and employee availability. The temporary position does not guarantee a minimum number of work hours, a security clearance, or conversion to full-time employment.
Temporary Position Responsibilities
During the initial temporary employment period, responsibilities may include:
- Participating in scheduled onboarding, orientation, and approved professional development activities.
- Completing assigned training related to satellite communications, protected military communications systems, and relevant operational procedures.
- Reviewing approved, unclassified technical materials and procedures.
- Supporting other assigned, unclassified tasks consistent with the employee's current access authorizations.
- Completing required security processing documentation and participating in applicable clearance-related activities.
- Coordinating periodically with Infinity management regarding availability, training progress, and potential future opportunities.
All work will be performed within authorized access and security restrictions. Working hours will be limited and scheduled based on business needs and employee availability. This is a temporary, part-time, hourly position. Actual hours may vary depending on assigned duties and business needs, and no minimum number of hours is guaranteed. All compensable work, including required training and meetings, will be paid in accordance with applicable law. The timing and outcome of clearance processing are not guaranteed, and continued temporary employment is not guaranteed for the duration of the clearance process, including when assigned work is no longer available, or staffing requirements change. Conditions for Potential Future Full-Time Employment This temporary, part-time position is intended to provide an opportunity for qualified candidates to pursue the security clearance requirements associated with a potential future full-time Protected Band Watch Officer (PBWO) position. Employment in this temporary position does not guarantee selection for or conversion to a full-time PBWO position.
Any future full-time opportunity will depend on:
- Security Clearance and Access: Successful adjudication of the required Top Secret security clearance, SCI eligibility, and any additional government-required access approvals.
- Contract and Position Availability: The availability of an authorized and funded full-time PBWO position, including applicable contract award, recompete results, and ongoing staffing requirements.
- Qualifications and Selection: The employee continuing to meet all position qualifications and successfully completing Infinity's applicable internal recruitment and selection process.
- Separate Employment Offer: The employee applying for an available full-time PBWO position and receiving and accepting a separate written offer identifying the applicable compensation, benefits, schedule, and employment terms.
If a qualifying full-time position becomes available, the employee may be invited to apply through Infinity's internal recruitment process. Obtaining the required security clearance does not guarantee an offer of full-time employment. Infinity cannot guarantee that a full-time position will remain available when clearance processing is complete. Minimum Qualifications
