Program Manager - Technical Security Support Services
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content.
We need to parse the job description.
We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions.
We need to preserve all substantive info.
We need to not repeat job title as heading (the page already shows it). So we don't include a heading for job title.
We need to not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings.
We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content.
We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience", "not specified", etc.
We need to include Pay only if posting actually states salary. The posting says: "#OPT Salary: Salaries are determined based on several factors including external market data, internal equity, and the candidate’s related knowledge, skills, and abilities for the position." That's not a specific salary figure, but it's a statement about salary determination. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Does "Salary: Salaries are determined based on several factors..." count as stating them? It's not a specific number or range, but it's still stating something about salary. The instruction says: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. The phrase "Salaries are determined based on several factors..." is somewhat generic but not exactly placeholder like "commensurate with experience". It's still vague. Might be considered filler. Safer to omit Pay section because no concrete salary figure.
Schedule: Not mentioned. So omit.
Benefits: The posting includes a Benefits section: "Benefits MELE Offers Employer-paid employee Medical, Dental and Vision Care. Low-Cost Family Health Care offered. Federal Holidays and three (3) weeks’ vacation 401(k) with Employer Match Cross-training opportunities". That's specific benefits. So include Benefits section.
Now other sections: About the role (maybe a summary). The description includes a paragraph at start: "Job Details Description MELE Associates, Inc. is seeking to add an experienced Program Manager - Technical Security Support Services to support the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science (SC) Office of Safety and Security (OSS), Consolidated Service Center (CSC), and Oak Ridge Office of Environmental Management (OREM). The Program Manager is responsible for the overall management, execution, integration, quality, staffing, and performance of all contract requirements supporting DOE Safeguards and Security (S&S) programs. The position provides executive leadership and strategic direction for staff supporting personnel security, industrial security, information security, classification, badging, foreign ownership and facility clearance programs, security surveys, and program support functions. The Program Manager ensures contract performance complies with DOE directives, federal regulations, security policies, quality standards, and performance objectives while maintaining close coordination with federal leadership, site offices, laboratories, contractors, and stakeholders across the DOE Office of Science enterprise. This position is contingent upon contract award."
That's a good summary for About the role.
Responsibilities: The "Major Duties And Responsibilities" section includes many bullet-like sentences. We can convert to - .
Requirements: Minimum Qualifications section.
Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications maybe.
Skills: Could be derived from qualifications but we might combine. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits.
We need to decide what goes where.
Minimum Qualifications: list of education, experience, etc. That's Requirements.
Preferred Qualifications: could be Qualifications.
Skills: maybe we can extract skills like leadership, communication, performance metrics, etc. But we could also put them under Qualifications. However we have both Requirements and Qualifications sections; we could put Minimum Qualifications under Requirements, Preferred Qualifications under Qualifications, and maybe Skills under Skills (like leadership, organizational, strategic planning, written/oral communication, performance metrics, dashboards, data analytics, stakeholder relationships, risk management, problem-solving, leading multidisciplinary teams, proficiency with MS Office, Power BI). That seems reasonable.
We need to avoid duplication.
Let's extract content.
First, About the role: Use the introductory paragraph(s) before "Major Duties And Responsibilities". We'll combine into a
.
Responsibilities: The bullet points under "Major Duties And Responsibilities" and subheadings: Program Leadership and Contract Management, Personnel Management, Strategic Security Program Oversight, Quality Assurance And Performance Management, Budget And Business Operations, Reporting And Communications, Safety And Compliance. We'll combine all duties into a list.
We need to preserve all substantive info; we can break into list items each sentence.
We'll need to strip any boilerplate like "This position is contingent upon contract award." Already in About the role maybe.
Now Requirements (Minimum Qualifications): list:
- Bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university in one of the following fields: Security Management, Criminal Justice, Business Administration, Public Administration, Emergency Management, Intelligence Studies, Information Assurance, Homeland Security, or related discipline.
- Minimum 10 years of progressive experience managing federal security, safeguards, industrial security, personnel security, or national security programs.
- Minimum 5 years of experience managing large, complex federal contracts and multidisciplinary teams.
- Experience supporting DOE, DOD, DHS, Intelligence Community, or other federal national security organizations.
- Demonstrated experience managing security operations involving classified information, personnel security, industrial security, and physical security programs.
- Experience overseeing geographically dispersed personnel and multiple task areas.
- Active DOE Q Clearance or Top-Secret clearance with the ability to obtain and maintain all required DOE access authorizations.
- Extensive knowledge of DOE Safeguards and Security requirements.
- Knowledge of DOE Orders 470 Series, 472 Series, 473 Series, 475 Series, and related federal security regulations.
- Knowledge of Trusted Workforce 2.0 initiatives and personnel vetting requirements.
- Strong leadership, organizational, and strategic planning skills.
- Exceptional written and oral communication abilities.
- Experience with performance metrics, dashboards, and data analytics.
- Ability to manage complex stakeholder relationships.
- Strong risk management and problem-solving capabilities.
- Ability to lead multidisciplinary teams in high-security environments.
- Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite, Power BI, and related business systems.
We'll put these as
- .
Now Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications): list:
- Master's degree preferred in one of the following fields: Security Management, Criminal Justice, Business Administration, Public Administration, Emergency Management, Intelligence Studies, Information Assurance, Homeland Security, or related discipline.
- Project Management Professional (PMP)
- Certified Protection Professional (CPP)
- Industrial Security Professional (ISP®)
- Security Fundamentals Professional Certification (SFPC)
- Program Management Certification
- DOE National Training Center security certifications relevant to assigned responsibilities.
We'll put as list.
Now Skills: Could extract from Minimum Qualifications and Preferred but we might duplicate. However we can create a Skills section focusing on abilities like leadership, organizational, strategic planning, written/oral communication, performance metrics, dashboards, data analytics, stakeholder management, risk management, problem-solving, leading multidisciplinary teams, proficiency with MS Office, Power BI. But many of those are already in Requirements. To avoid duplication, maybe we omit Skills section and just have Requirements and Qualifications. But the instruction says we can include sections only when posting has real specific content. It doesn't require us to include all possible headings. So we could skip Skills if we think it's redundant. However the instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could combine skills into Requirements or Qualifications. But we already have Requirements (minimum) and Qualifications (preferred). That's two sections. Adding Skills might be thin. Better to omit Skills.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits.
Check Benefits: we have specific benefits.
Now we need to ensure we don't include any boilerplate like EEO statements, etc. At the end there is EEO statement and E-Verify. Remove.
Also remove "About MELE Associates, Inc." paragraph? That's company description; is that substantive? It's about the company, not the role. Might be considered boilerplate? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Company description is not explicitly listed to remove, but it's not about the role. However it's substantive info about the employer. Might be okay to keep? The instruction says "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." The company description is substantive about the employer. However typical job postings often include company overview; it's not required but could be kept. However the sections we have are About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits. Company description could go under About the role? But About the role is supposed to be about the role, not the company. Could we add a section "About the company"? Not in allowed headings list. The allowed headings are only those listed. So we cannot add a custom heading. We could incorporate company description into About the role paragraph? That would mix role and company. Might be okay but could be considered not strictly about the role. However the instruction says use those headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use those for section headings. It might be okay to add other headings but they'd be non-standard. Safer to stick to allowed headings and omit company description if it doesn't fit. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could omit company description.
