  • Manage the full badging lifecycle, verifying identity and authorization to support the Facility Security Officer (FSO) in maintaining site security integrity.
  • Administer the Key Control Program, maintaining a meticulous real-time inventory and executing periodic audits to ensure physical keys are secured in GSA-approved containers.
  • Coordinate between access systems (Lenel) and surveillance (Milestone) to provide a defense-in-depth security posture.
  • Act as the primary point of contact for external security auditors regarding access control, visitor management, and key control documentation.

Required Qualifications

  • Minimum of 3 years of professional experience in physical security, access control management, or Security Operations Center (SOC) environments.
  • Hands-on experience managing and programming enterprise-level electronic access control systems (e.g., Lenel OnGuard) and building security management software.
  • Proven ability to manage secure environments, including demonstrated experience with physical security protocols and maintaining rigorous compliance documentation for controlled access areas.

Desired Qualifications

  • Familiarity with CMMC or NIST 800-171 physical access and operational security requirements.
  • Possession of industry-recognized security certifications (e.g., Physical Security Professional [PSP] or equivalent).
  • Direct experience managing Milestone VMS or integrating video surveillance with access control alarms within a secure operating environment.
  • Demonstrated ability to monitor and respond to building system alarms and security incidents in a fast-paced SOC or building systems environment.
