Job Description Summary
About This Role
Security isn't just a compliance function at GE Vernova — it's the foundation that enables some of the most sensitive and consequential work in the energy and defense sectors. As an Assistant Facility Security Officer (AFSO), you'll play a hands-on role in keeping that foundation strong. Working closely with the Facility Security Officer (FSO), you'll help protect classified programs, support cleared personnel, and ensure the organization meets its obligations under U.S. Government security requirements — all while being part of a team where your attention to detail and commitment to integrity directly enables mission-critical work.
This is a role for someone who brings structure to complexity, takes compliance seriously, and thrives in an environment where precision matters.
