Math Intern Jobs in Tennessee (NOW HIRING)

As a Facility Representative, you will provide technical expertise on all aspects of day-to-day operations at a NNSA plant or site. You will determine whether facility conditions and activities are in compliance with federal and state regulations and requirements by inspecting field conditions and evaluating the technical adequacy of reports, inspections, permits, and various safety-related programs. Your focus is ensuring the safe and efficient operation of NNSA facilities.Qualifications:

BASIC REQUIREMENTS: This position may be filled as a 0801 General Engineer or a 1301 Physical Scientist. Each job series requires applicants to meet a Basic Education Requirement in addition to at least one full year of specialized experience as described below. You must meet all qualifications requirements by the closing date of this announcement.
To qualify for the 1301 Physical Scientist:
EDUCATION:
A. Degree: physical science, engineering, or mathematics that included 24 semester hours in physical science and/or related engineering science such as mechanics, dynamics, properties of materials, and electronics.
OR
B. Combination of education and experience: education equivalent to one of the majors shown in A above that included at least 24 semester hours in physical science and/or related engineering science, plus appropriate experience or additional education.
To qualify for the 0801 General Engineer:
EDUCATION:
A. Degree: Engineering. To be acceptable, the program must: (1) lead to a bachelor's degree in a school of engineering with at least one program accredited by 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, and Puerto Rico.
3. Specified academic courses -- Successful completion of at least 60 semester hours of courses in the physical, mathematical, and engineering sciences and that included the courses specified in the basic requirements under paragraph A. The courses must be fully acceptable toward meeting the requirements of an engineering program as described in paragraph A.
4. Related curriculum -- Successful completion of a curriculum leading to a bachelor's degree in an appropriate scientific field, e.g., engineering technology, physics, chemistry, architecture, computer science, mathematics, hydrology, or geology, may be accepted in lieu of a bachelor's degree in engineering, provided the applicant has had at least 1 year of professional engineering experience acquired under professional engineering supervision and guidance. Ordinarily there should be either an established plan of intensive training to develop professional engineering competence, or several years of prior professional engineering-type experience, e.g., in interdisciplinary positions.

SPECIALIZED EXPERIENCE: Applicants must possess one year of specialized experience equivalent in difficulty and responsibility to the next lower grade level in the Federal Service.
To qualify for the EN-3 level:
In addition to the education requirements, candidates must possess at least one year of specialized experience equivalent to the next lower NNSA pay band or GS grade level in the Federal Service (i.e., EN-00, NN-02, or GS-11). Specialized experience is:

• Participating in technical evaluations of operational performance, including evaluations of supporting technical documentation, in a high-hazard facility (i.e., hazards with potential consequences affecting a large number of onsite or offsite personnel);
• Assisting in preparing portions of technical reports, briefing materials or other documentation detailing performance relative to safe and efficient operations or documenting operational incidents, accidents, malfunctions or non-routine operations; and
• Evaluating compliance with health and safety requirements of industrial, nuclear, or non-nuclear facilities.

To qualify for the EN-4 level:
In addition to the education requirements, candidates must possess at least one year of specialized experience equivalent to the next lower NNSA pay band or GS grade level in the Federal Service (i.e., EN-03, NN-03, or GS-13). Specialized experience is:

• Conducting technical assessments, audits, or surveillances in a highly hazard facility;
• Preparing technical reports, briefing materials or other documentation detailing performance relative to safe and efficient operations or documenting operational incidents, accidents, malfunctions, or non-routine operations; and
• Overseeing and evaluating compliance with health, safety, and nuclear safety requirements of nuclear facilities.

Education:

Education must be accredited by an accrediting institution recognized by the U.S. Department of Education in order for it to be credited towards qualifications; applicant's resumes and supporting documentation should only reflect education received from schools accredited by such institutions. Applicants can verify accreditation at the following Website: https://ope.ed.gov/dapip/#/home.
You must submit a copy of your college transcript (unofficial is acceptable) from an accredited institution listing the college/university, degree confirmation date(s) and applicable courses for the position you are applying to.
If you are using foreign education to meet qualification requirements, you must send a Certificate of Foreign Equivalency (a U.S. private organization's interpretation that such education has been deemed at least equivalent to conventional U.S. education programs) with your transcript in order to receive credit for that education.
If you are selected, official transcripts will be required.
