About the

Position:

P osition serves as Interdisciplinary for Chemical Materials Activity in Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD. Authority does not include provision for non-competitive conversion.

Qualifications:

Who May Apply:

US Citizens In order to qualify, you must meet the experience requirements described below. Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps) and other organizations (e.g., professional; philanthropic; religious; spiritual; community; student; social). You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience. Your resume must clearly describe your relevant experience; if qualifying based on education, your transcripts will be required as part of your application. Additional information about transcripts is in this document . Basic Requirement for

Engineer:

Degree:

Bachelor's degree (or higher degree) in engineering. To be acceptable, the program must: (1) lead to a bachelor's degree (or higher degree) in a school of engineering with at least one program accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET); OR (2) include differential and integral calculus and courses (more advanced than first-year physics and chemistry) in five of the following seven areas of engineering science or physics: (a) statics, dynamics; (b) strength of materials (stress-strain relationships); (c) fluid mechanics, hydraulics; (d) thermodynamics; (e) electrical fields and circuits; (f) nature and properties of materials (relating particle and aggregate structure to properties); and (g) any other comparable area of fundamental engineering science or physics, such as optics, heat transfer, soil mechanics, or electronics. OR B.

Combination of Education and Experience:

College-level education, training, and/or technical experience that furnished (1) a thorough knowledge of the physical and mathematical sciences underlying engineering, and (2) a good understanding, both theoretical and practical, of the engineering sciences and techniques and their applications to one of the branches of engineering. The adequacy of such background must be demonstrated by one of the following: 1. Professional registration or licensure

Current registration as an Engineer Intern (EI), Engineer in Training (EIT), or licensure as a Professional Engineer (PE) by any State, the District of Columbia, Guam, or Puerto Rico.

Absent other means of qualifying under this standard, those applicants who achieved such registration by means other than written test (e.g., State grandfather or eminence provisions) are eligible only for positions that are within or closely related to the specialty field of their registration. For example, an applicant who attains registration through a State Board's eminence provision as a manufacturing engineer typically would be rated eligible only for manufacturing engineering positions. 2. Written Test

Evidence of having successfully passed the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) examination, or any other written test required for professional registration, by an engineering licensure board in the various States, the District of Columbia, Guam, or Puerto Rico. 3. Specified academic courses
Successful completion of at least 60 semester hours of courses in the physical, mathematical, and engineering sciences and that included the courses specified in A above. The courses must be fully acceptable toward meeting the requirements of an engineering program. 4. Related curriculum
Successful completion of a curriculum leading to a bachelor's degree in an appropriate scientific field, e.

g., engineering technology, physics, chemistry, architecture, computer science, mathematics, hydrology, or geology, may be accepted in lieu of a degree in engineering, provided the applicant has had at least 1 year of professional engineering experience acquired under professional engineering supervision and guidance. Ordinarily there should be either an established plan of intensive training to develop professional engineering competence, or several years of prior professional engineering-type experience, e.g., in interdisciplinary positions. Basic Requirement for

Physical Scientist :

Degree:

Bachelor's degree (or higher degree) in physical science, engineering, or mathematics that included 24 semester hours in physical science and/or related engineering science such as mechanics, dynamics, properties of materials, and electronics. OR B.

Combination of Education and Experience:

Courses equivalent to one of the majors, as shown in A above, that included at least 24 semester hours in physical science and/or related engineering science, plus appropriate experience or additional education. In addition to meeting the basic requirement above, to qualify for this position you must also meet the qualification requirements listed below:

Specialized Experience :

One year of specialized experience equivalent to at least the GS-12 grade level in the Federal service which includes: preparing work plans and establishing guidelines; utilizing basic engineering techniques, processes, and procedures; defining technical and environmental goals; preparing schedules; and preparing and coordinating systems analysis. This definition of specialized experience is typical of work performed at the next lower grade/level position in the federal service (GS-12).","type","jobPosting","source","LC","accountId","36701800","organizationName","District of Columbia Courts","applicationUrl","https://www.usajobs.gov/job/885862900","Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD","isRemote","location",{"_223":224,"_225":226},"createdAt","2026-09-25T06:39:50.345775490Z","updatedAt","2026-09-25T13:31:49.281Z","publishedAt","2026-09-17T00:00:00Z","expiresAt","2026-10-26T00:00Z","status","active","isExpired","isDiscoverable",true,"isSearchable","isSpotlight","isDraft","careerSkills",[160,161,162,163,164,165,166,167,168,169,170,171,172,173,174,175,176,177,178,179],"requiredEducation","4_college","benefitCategories",[159],"isEmailRequired","isPhoneRequired","subtype","internship","titleSearch","Unclassified","compensationType","salary","locationFlexibility","onsite","employmentTypeName","full_time","wage10thPercentileHourly",39.32596153846154,"wage30thPercentileHourly",47.08125,"wage50thPercentileHourly",53.32980769230769,"growthRateFiveYear",0.0483,"payGrowthScore",100,"jobSecurityScore",57.412451630719644,"compositeScore",78.70622581535983,"compositeLowConfidence","county","24025","state","24","sitemapPath","/science-and-research/physical-scientist/md/aberdeen-proving-ground",[10],"eduLevelsName",[77],"lotCareerAreaName",[12],"lotOccupationName",[16],"lotSpecializedOccupation",[158],"minYearsExperience","1","minEduLevels","2","isCanonical","canonicalJobId","canonicalSlug","canonicalSitemapPath","groupVariantCount",1,"groupLocations",[154],"benefitNames",[153],"aiEnrichments",{"_138":139,"_140":141,"_142":143,"_144":145},"pay",{"_150":28,"_151":152},"extractedFilters",{},"experienceLevel",{"_146":131,"_147":28,"_148":149},"tldr","Federal government role in Maryland needing 1+ years of engineering/physical science experience.
