Machine Technician

Anderson County is a great place to live, work, and explore. From the historic community of Clinton to the innovation legacy of Oak Ridge – famously known as "The Secret City" from its Manhattan Project roots – our county blends small-town warmth with big scientific impact.

Nearby Norris Dam State Park and the off-road adventure terrain at Windrock Park add even more ways to get outside.
