Getting Started on Our Corporate Employment Website

Thank you for your interest in employment with Sandia National Laboratories.

To be considered for a position, please submit your resume electronically through our corporate employment website. By doing so, our recruiters can quickly and efficiently match your skills and experience with our job openings. This process also helps our hiring managers review the applications and resumes that have been submitted for their job openings.

IMPORTANT: To be considered for employment, you must apply for a specific job opening. Even if you are a previous job applicant, if you are interested in a new or different job opening, you must apply for that particular job opening to be considered.
