  • Support hardware-in-the-loop testing, commissioning, and factory/site acceptance testing, advising on explosives safety throughout

  • Lead or support emergency response planning and execution for incidents involving energetic materials

  • Train and brief site personnel on explosives safety protocols, magazine procedures, and emergency response

  • Maintain accurate build, test, and safety records, and keep as-built/as-run documentation up to date

Required Qualifications

  • 3+ years of hands-on EOD experience, including render-safe procedures and disposal of explosive ordnance or energetic materials

  • Working knowledge of ATF explosives storage and recordkeeping regulations (27 CFR 555) or equivalent DoD explosives safety standards

  • Experience managing an explosives magazine, bunker, or licensed storage facility, including inventory control and key/access management

  • Strong understanding of explosives safety principles, hazard classification, and quantity-distance requirements

  • Ability to serve as a site safety authority, including the willingness and authority to stop work when conditions are unsafe

  • Strong attention to detail and record-keeping discipline

  • Ability to work on-site in laboratory, fabrication, and plant environments, and travel as needed

Preferred Qualifications

  • Military EOD training (e.g., Navy/Army/Air Force EOD, NAVSCOLEOD graduate) or equivalent civilian bomb technician certification

  • Experience as a Responsible Person or Magazine Manager under an ATF explosives license or permit

  • Experience supporting rocket motor, propellant, or other energetics test/production operations
