Electrical Engineer Security Clearance

Position: Electrical Engineer with Security Clearance
Location: Redstone Arsenal

Duties
* Serves as the senior professional electrical engineering advisor and project manager on engineering matters relative to power distribution and industrial electrical construction for the installation.
* Projects often encompass the substantial scope and complexity involving multidiscipline programs that utilize electrical engineering and principles.
* Performs professional engineering duties in solving complex problems associated with power transfer, distribution, industrial construction for the operation, repair and expansion of electrical system.
* Performs study and detailed analysis of complex components or systems to determine solutions and alternatives to obscure problems in developing alternatives to improve efficiency and economy, using untried components or new engineering schemes.
* Innovates system controls and operative features to reduce overall system costs. Performs or oversees performance of circuit analyses of electrical feeders to assure that capacities are not exceeded.
* Applies a working knowledge of science, kinetics, thermodynamics, electronics, materials, and chemistry in arriving at new concepts of engineering application in the electrical systems for which incumbent is responsible
* Work assignments encompass electrical engineering responsibilities related to design, problem solving, program management, planning, cost estimate and project development, engineering, and management Requirements Conditions of employment
* Appointment may be subject to a suitability or fitness determination, as determined by a completed background investigation.
* Secret Security Clearance is required.
* Appointment to this position is subject to a one year probationary period unless the appointee has previously met the requirements as described in 5 CFR Part 11. Qualifications Who May Apply: US Citizens In order to qualify, you must meet the

Education and Experience requirements described below. Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., Peace Corps, Ameri Corps) and other organizations (e.g., professional; philanthropic; religious; spiritual; community; student; social). You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience. Your resume must clearly describe your relevant experience; if qualifying based on education, your transcripts will be required as part of your application.

Additional information about transcripts is . You will be evaluated on the basis of your level of competency in the following areas:
Basic Requirement for General Engineer:

A. Degree:
Bachelor's degree (or higher degree) in engineering. To be acceptable, the program must: (1) lead to a bachelor's degree (or higher degree) in a school of engineering with at least one program accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET); OR (2) include differential and integral calculus and courses (more advanced than first-year physics and chemistry) in five of the following seven areas of engineering science or physics: (a) statics, dynamics;

(b) strength of materials (stress-strain relationships); (c) fluid mechanics, hydraulics; (d) thermodynamics; (e) electrical fields and circuits; (f) nature and properties of materials (relating particle and aggregate structure to properties); and (g) any other comparable area of fundamental engineering science or physics, such as optics, heat transfer, soil mechanics, or electronics. OR

B. Combination of

Education and Experience:

College-level education, training, and/or technical experience that furnished (1) a thorough knowledge of the physical and mathematical sciences underlying engineering, and (2) a good understanding, both theoretical and practical, of the engineering sciences and techniques and their applications to one of the branches of engineering. The adequacy of such background must be demonstrated by one of the following:
1. Professional registration or licensure - Current registration as an Engineer Intern (EI), Engineer in Training (EIT), or licensure as a Professional Engineer (PE) by any State, the District of Columbia, Guam, or Puerto Rico. Absent other means of qualifying under this standard, those applicants who achieved such registration by means other than written test (e.g., State grandfather or eminence provisions) are eligible only for positions that are within or closely related to the specialty field of their registration.

For example, an applicant who attains registration through a State Board's eminence provision as a manufacturing engineer typically would be rated eligible only for manufacturing engineering positions.
2. Written Test - Evidence of having successfully passed the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) examination, or any other written test required for professional registration, by an engineering licensure board in the various States, the District of Columbia, Guam, or Puerto Rico.
3. Specified academic courses -…
