Overview

Be part of the nation’s only repository for the disposal of nuclear waste known as Transuranic (TRU) waste.

Salado Isolation Mining Contractors, LLC (SIMCO), managing and operating contractor of the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) is currently seeking a qualified individual to serve as an Training Analyst Developer and join our team located in Carlsbad, New Mexico.

Responsibilities

The Training Analyst Developer is responsible for the systematic analysis, design, development, implementation, and continuous evaluation of performance-based training programs across WIPP facility operations, safety, and compliance disciplines. Applying the systematic approach to training (ADDIE model), the candidate collaborates directly with facility leadership, engineering staff, and operational Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to perform comprehensive training needs assessments and job/task analyses. Through this process, the analyst identifies critical performance gaps and translates operational requirements into structured, measurable learning objectives and instructional blueprints.

In the design and development phases, the candidate authors, structures, and maintains high-quality technical curriculum, lesson plans, trainee guides, qualification standards (OJT/OJE cards), and examination instruments that strictly adhere to Department of Energy (DOE) accreditation guidelines. The developer leverages adult learning methodologies to translate facility systems and technical operating characteristics into engaging classroom presentations, practical exercises, simulator training, and digital learning assets.

Additionally, the role supports program rollout and execution by co-facilitating technical instruction when qualified, and coaching site instructors and field evaluators on effective instructional delivery techniques. Post-implementation, the candidate oversees training program by analyzing student performance data, exam metrics, post-training field evaluations, and plant occurrence reports. Using this data, the developer drives continuous curriculum improvements and timely modifications to reflect facility modifications, procedure updates, and evolving DOE orders, ensuring training remains operationally accurate, and grounded in nuclear safety culture.

• Must be 18 years of age.
• Must be authorized to work and remain in the United States without SIMCO visa sponsorship now or in the future.
• Must be able to obtain a Department of Energy badge for access to the WIPP Site (even if teleworking, must still be able to comply with security requirements to obtain a badge).
• Non-U.S. citizens from countries identified by the Department of Energy as posing heightened security concerns—including sensitive countries, state sponsors of terrorism, countries of risk, and other designated countries –are subject to additional security requirements that limit site access.
