Personnel Security Manager / Alternate Facility Security Officer

Join to apply for the Personnel Security Manager / Alternate Facility Security Officer role at Blue Origin
.

Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis until the requisition is closed.

At Blue Origin, we envision millions of people living and working in space for the benefit of Earth. We’re working to develop reusable, safe, and low-cost space vehicles and systems within a culture of safety, collaboration, and inclusion. Join our team of problem solvers as we add new chapters to the history of spaceflight!

As part of a small, passionate, and accomplished team of security professionals, the Personnel Security Manager (PSM) will further develop and oversee the Personnel Security program with the goal of driving cycle time, showing metric data, and acquiring high scores during government inspections. The PSM will process clearances for Department of Defense (DoD) and Intelligence Community (IC) customers with potential to support Special Access Program (SAP) activities.

The PSM will support the Facility Security Officer (FSO) as Alternate Facility Security Officer (AFSO) to further strengthen the current security posture through the development and integration of robust security processes into Blue Origin’s Industrial Security Program in support of Department of Defense (DoD) programs where the Defense Counterintelligence Security Agency (DCSA) is the Cognizant Security Authority (CSA). Further growth opportunities in support of multiple programs and customers are possible as the company expands, and more contracts are acquired.

The AFSO will be detail oriented with a solid application software foundation to track the entire Personnel Security process and capture data for leadership review and presentation. The AFSO will interface with business partners, teammates, and customer personnel.

The AFSO must have adequate security-related experience and knowledge of government security regulations, manuals, and processes, including those outlined in the 32 CFR Part 117 (NISPOM), Intelligence Community Directives (ICD-704, 705, etc.), DoD 5205.07, and other applicable manuals. The AFSO will have knowledge of Operations Security (OPSEC), Insider Threat Management (ITM), and Physical Security. The AFSO will be required to travel for training, conferences, and other offsite support as assigned.

This position will require dedication and commitment, as it will directly impact the history of space exploration and bring Blue Origin closer to the goal of safe and repeatable spaceflight.

We are looking for a passionate, self-driven, and team-focused individual who will apply technical expertise, leadership skills, and commitment to positively impact the Blue Origin Mission!
