 Why does the job exist?
 
New Mexico is in the grip of a gun violence crisis, one that demands immediate, intelligence-driven solutions. Firearms were the leading cause of death among children and teens (ages 1-17) from 2018 to 2022. Over the past decade, our gun death rate has surged by 76%, making New Mexico the third highest in the nation. Gun violence is highly concentrated, with less than 0.5% of the population responsible for up to 70% of gun-related homicides.
 Traditional enforcement alone is not enough, and this position is key to changing that. As a NIBIN Program Administrator/Technician, you will operate at the technical core of the state's CGIC initiative. Your work ensures that ballistic evidence is captured accurately, processed efficiently, and shared effectively to drive gun crime investigations.

The technician is also responsible for entering related information into the NIBIN Enforcement Support System (NESS) and conducting firearm traces using ATF's eTrace platform.
 This role requires ongoing coordination with local, state, and federal law enforcement partners to facilitate the intake, documentation, and return of ballistic evidence. The technician maintains organized records, summarizes acquisition outcomes in writing, and supports CGIC analysts by ensuring complete and accurate data is available to inform intelligence products. The position also supports compliance with ATF's Minimum Required Operating Standards (MROS), including audit readiness, system maintenance, and performance tracking across sites.
 Technicians must be able to work independently, follow strict protocols, and uphold operational consistency across multiple geographically dispersed locations. A strong understanding of firearms handling, digital imaging systems, and interagency collaboration is essential to success in this role.
