Excellent written and oral communication skills. Motivated self‑starter with the ability to work independently and to participate creatively in collaborative teams across the laboratory. Ability to function well in a fast‑paced research environment, set priorities to accomplish multiple tasks within deadlines, and adapt to ever‑changing needs. Special Requirements This position requires the ability to obtain and maintain an HSPD‑12 PIV badge and a Real ID compliant form of identification. Additionally, ORNL is subject to Department of Energy access restrictions. All employees must also be able to obtain and maintain a federal Personal Identity Verification (PIV) card as mandated by Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD‑12) and Department of Energy (DOE) Order 473.1A, which requires a favorable post‑employment background investigation. To obtain this credential, new employees must successfully complete and pass a Federal Tier 1 background check investigation, including a declaration of illegal drug activities, including use, supply, possession, or manufacture within the last year (this includes marijuana and cannabis derivatives, which are still considered illegal under federal law, regardless of state laws). For foreign national candidates, if you have not resided in the U.S. for three consecutive years, you are not eligible for the PIV credential and instead will need to obtain a favorable Local Site‑Specific Only (LSSO) risk determination to maintain employment. Once you meet the three‑year residency requirement, you will be required to obtain a PIV credential to maintain employment.
