COMPA Industries supplies engineering, construction, and administrative staff to nuclear research and facility operations, primarily at Los Alamos National Laboratory. The hiring velocity is accelerating with a heavily senior-weighted mix (58 of 78 open roles), concentrated in engineering (50 roles), signaling acute demand for experienced nuclear engineers and project managers rather than entry-level capacity. The tech stack—Primavera P6, Oracle, ServiceNow, Jira, plus CAD and BIM tools—reflects deep integration into regulated, complex project environments where cost and schedule control are existential.
COMPA Industries is a staff augmentation and project management services firm founded in 1986, headquartered in Los Alamos, New Mexico. The company supplies professional, technical, and administrative personnel to federal agencies and national laboratories, with active project work spanning plutonium facility design, construction, engineering solutions, and advanced scientific assembly—all operating in highly regulated nuclear environments. Revenue-generating projects range up to $500k in value. The core operational focus is enabling timely delivery of mission-critical construction and engineering work while maintaining strict regulatory compliance and facility safety standards.
COMPA uses Primavera P6 and Oracle Primavera for project controls, ServiceNow for IT service management, Jira and Confluence for collaboration, CAD tools (AutoCAD, MicroStation, Bluebeam), and standard MS Office and SQL databases. BIM and facility management tools (Teamcenter, Intergraph Smart3D) support complex engineering work.
COMPA's active project portfolio includes plutonium facility design and engineering solutions, construction projects supporting critical national security missions, facility upgrades at Los Alamos National Laboratory, glovebox installations, advanced scientific and detector assembly, and project control performance improvements in regulated nuclear environments.
