Defense Threat Reduction Agency
6 remote or telework-eligible positions · federal agency
The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) is the Department of Defense combat support agency for countering weapons of mass destruction: nuclear, chemical, biological and radiological threats, from arms control treaty inspections and nuclear enterprise support to research on detecting and defeating these weapons. It is headquartered at Fort Belvoir, Virginia, with liaison staff at the combatant commands.
Recent listings have included a combatant command representative, an operations research analyst, a project officer, an IT cybersecurity specialist in security and an IT specialist in data management and enterprise architecture.
Applying tip: nearly every DTRA position requires a Top Secret clearance, often with SCI access, and much of the work is classified and on-site, so read the work arrangement and clearance lines first. IT positions here also carry DoD cyber workforce certification requirements. Our clearance guide and IT and cybersecurity guide cover both.
