The professionals at the National Security Agency (NSA) have one common goal: to protect our nation. The mission requires a strong offense and a steadfast defense. The offense collects, processes and disseminates intelligence information derived from foreign signals for intelligence and counterintelligence purposes. The defense prevents adversaries from gaining access to sensitive classified national security information. With the ever-accelerating technological advances and growing system complexity, NSA needs Engineering Specialists/Technicians to help build, install, modify, repair, fabricate prototype parts/mechanisms, and/or test electronic equipment.

We have opportunities at our NSA Headquarters as well as a few in our NSA Hawaii regional center. The responsibilities of an Engineering Specialist/Technician may include:

- Installing, operating, maintaining, troubleshooting and/or repairing of equipment and systems in accordance with applicable standards and processes
- Performing rack, stack, and cabling of equipment in IT machine rooms
