Position Overview
Atlas Advisors is building a qualified candidate bench for Cleared American Guard and Construction Surveillance Technician positions supporting secure U.S. military facilities in Germany. These are separate positions with different duties and technical requirements. Applicants should identify whether they are applying for CAGS, CST, or both.
Cleared American Guards
Cleared American Guards provide fixed-site security and access control for classified or controlled facilities. Responsibilities may include:
Control access by personnel, vehicles, materials, and equipment.
Conduct personnel, vehicle, bag, and property inspections in accordance with site procedures.
Monitor CCTV, alarms, intrusion-detection systems, and other physical-security systems.
Maintain post logs, access rosters, key-control records, shift-change briefs, and incident reports.
Respond to security, fire, medical, and other emergencies and coordinate with appropriate emergency services.
Protect classified facilities, information, property, and materials from unauthorized access, vandalism, sabotage, espionage, or other threats.
Work rotating shifts, including nights, weekends, holidays, and overtime when required.
Construction Surveillance Technicians
Construction Surveillance Technicians protect classified facilities throughout construction and renovation. Responsibilities may include:
Continuously monitor construction workers, including foreign-national personnel, on secure construction sites.
Prevent the introduction of clandestine electronic, electrical, mechanical, or other surveillance devices.
Inspect construction materials, tools, equipment, furnishings, vehicles, and work areas for tampering or unauthorized modification.
Review blueprints and construction details to identify deviations, unexplained penetrations, concealed spaces, or other security concerns.
Use or support portable X-ray systems, spectrum analyzers, Non-Linear Junction Detectors, and comparable inspection equipment.
Maintain detailed daily logs, surveillance reports, incident records, and chain-of-custody documentation.
Report suspected security violations immediately and coordinate corrective action with security and construction-management personnel.

Relevant physical-security, force-protection, law-enforcement, military-security, construction-security, or comparable experience.
For CST positions, experience with secure-facility construction, construction surveillance, construction trades, engineering, facilities maintenance, inspection, or blueprint review is strongly preferred.
