The altitude means cooler temperatures, less oxygen, and stunning mountain views. It may take a week or so to adjust, so drink water, take it easy at first, and don't be surprised if you get winded walking uphill. The Outdoors Is Your Playground If you love hiking, skiing, trail running, climbing, or biking, you're in the right place. Trails start right in town and lead to canyons, mesas, and forests. Nearby adventures include Pajarito Mountain, Bandelier National Monument, and the Valles Caldera - all within 30 minutes. You're Joining a World-Class Science Community Los Alamos isn't a typical small town - it's full of scientists, engineers, and researchers from around the world. You'll find yourself surrounded by people who are passionate about solving big, complex problems and who genuinely love to share their knowledge. The LANL Mission Is Both Serious and Inspiring LANL supports national security, energy innovation, and scientific discovery. Even in a student role, your work matters - it contributes to projects that have real-world impact. You'll experience the intersection of research, engineering, and service to the nation. Housing Can Be Tight - Plan Early Los Alamos has limited rental housing, especially in summer. Many students find places in White Rock (15 minutes away) or Santa Fe (40 minutes away). LANL's student programs office can help with housing tips, roommate connections, and commuting options. You'll Probably Want a Car Public transportation is limited, and grocery stores, trails, and housing can be spread out. If you don't have a car, carpooling and LANL shuttles may help, but having your own wheels makes exploring northern New Mexico much easier. New Mexico's Culture and Food Are Unforgettable You'll fall in love with New Mexican cuisine - especially green chile (trust us, it goes on everything). Los Alamos blends small-town friendliness with the cultural richness of nearby Santa Fe, Taos, and the Pueblos. You'll experience art, festivals, and a deep sense of place. It's a Tight-Knit, Safe, and Welcoming Community Los Alamos is a small, safe town with great amenities - parks, libraries, a community center, and local coffee shops. It's easy to meet other students and young professionals through LANL's Student Association and Outdoor Adventure groups. Be Ready for Security and Safety Culture LANL is a secure facility - expect badges, safety briefings, and rules about where you can go and what devices you can use. It can feel strict at first, but it's all part of protecting the people and the mission. Professionalism and attention to detail are valued everywhere. This Experience Can Launch Your Career Many post-bachelor students find that their time at LANL becomes a career-defining experience. You'll gain real technical skills, work with brilliant mentors, and get exposure to research, computing, and national programs that few places in the world can offer. Bonus Tip: Stay Curious Bring your curiosity, your sense of adventure, and your willingness to learn - both in the lab and outside of it. Los Alamos has a special mix of science, history, and nature that you'll remember long after you leave.

Security Clearance: This position does not currently require a Department of Energy (DOE) security clearance. Sandia will conduct a pre-employment drug test and background review that includes checks of personal references, credit, law enforcement records, and employment/education verifications. Furthermore, employees in New Mexico need to pass a U.S. Air Force background screen for access to Kirtland Air Force Base. Substance abuse or illegal drug use, falsification of information, criminal activity, serious misconduct or other indicators of untrustworthiness can cause access to be denied or terminated, resulting in the inability to perform the duties assigned and subsequent termination of employment. Under federal law, citizens and agents of the People's Republic of China, the Islamic Republic of Iran, the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea, and the Russian Federation are generally prohibited from accessing Sandia National Laboratories. Accordingly, such individuals will not be considered for employment unless they are also a citizen of the United States. If hired without a clearance and it subsequently becomes necessary to obtain and maintain one for the position, or you bid on positions that require a clearance, a pre-processing background review may be conducted prior to a required federal background investigation. Applicants for a DOE security clearance need to be U.S. citizens. If you hold more than one citizenship (i.e., of the U.S. and another country), your ability to obtain a security clearance may be impacted. Members of the workforce (MOWs) hired at Sandia who require uncleared access for greater than 179 days during their employment, are required to go through the Uncleared Personal Identity Verification (UPIV) process. Access includes physical and/or cyber (logical) access, as well as remote access to any NNSA information technology (IT) systems. UPIV requirements are not applicable to individuals who require a DOE personnel security clearance for the performance of their SNL employment or to foreign nationals. The UPIV process will include the completion of a USAccess Enrollment, SF-85 (Questionnaire for Non-Sensitive Positions) and OF-306 (Declaration of for Federal Employment). An unfavorable UPIV determination will result in immediate retrieval of the SNL issued badge, removal of cyber (logical) access and/or removal from SNL subcontract. All MOWs may appeal the unfavorable UPIV determination to DOE/NNSA immediately. If the appeal is unsuccessful, the MOW may try to go through the UPIV process one year after the decision date. EEO: All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, or veteran status and any other protected class under state or federal law. NNSA Requirements for MedPEDs: If you have a Medical Portable Electronic Device (MedPED), such as a pacemaker, defibrillator, drug-releasing pump, hearing aids, or diagnostic equipment and other equipment for measuring, monitoring, and recording body functions such as heartbeat and brain waves, if employed by Sandia National Laboratories you may be required to comply with NNSA security requirements for MedPEDs. If you have a MedPED and you are selected for an on-site interview at Sandia National Laboratories, there may be additional steps necessary to ensure compliance with NNSA security requirements prior to the interview date.
