At Leidos, we deliver innovative solutions through the efforts of our diverse and talented people who are dedicated to our customers’ success. We empower our teams, contribute to our communities, and operate sustainable. Everything we do is built on a commitment to do the right thing for our customers, our people, and our community. Our Mission, Vision, and Values guide the way we do business.

Are you ready for your next career challenge?

Leidos Defense provides a diverse portfolio of systems, solutions, and services covering land, sea, air, space, and cyberspace for customers worldwide. Solutions for Defense include enterprise and mission IT, large-scale intelligence systems, command and control, geospatial and data analytics, cybersecurity, logistics, training, and intelligence analysis and operations support. Our team is solving the world’s toughest security challenges for customers with “can’t fail” missions.

Leidos Defense is seeking a Systems Engineer to join a matrixed organization of systems engineers, model-based systems engineers, and specialty systems engineers.

This Systems Engineer will develop systems engineering artifacts, including Requirements Specifications, Test Procedures, Test Reports, CONOPS, and Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) content.

The Systems Engineer will work in a matrixed organization, which supports multiple programs at once in a variety of engineering fields with all different team environments. When the program ends, the Systems Engineer will have the opportunity to support a different program in the matrixed engineering portfolio. A candidate with experience in other systems engineering areas such as Model-Based Systems Engineering, Human Factors Engineering, System Safety Engineering, Risk Management, and Reliability Analysis will be treated preferentially. However, a strong background in traditional systems engineering and technical leadership is what is required for this position.

  • Experience in deriving requirements for complex electrical, electro-mechanical, mechanical, and software systems.

  • Position requires candidates to be capable of performing in a collaborative engineering environment working closely with multi-disciplinary teams.

  • Demonstrated experience effectively communicating within a team environment.

  • Resident of the North Alabama area or willing to relocate to the Huntsville - North Alabama, AL area.

  • US Citizenship required and eligibility to be able to obtain/maintain secret security clearance.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Preference shown to candidates who possess a Master of Science in System Engineering from an ABET-accredited university.

  • Preferred candidates will also have experience and/or working knowledge with:

    • Cameo/MagicDraw and/or other Model Based System Engineering (MBSE) modeling tools

    • Demonstrated experience effectively leading a team of engineers. \Demonstrated experience accurately estimating the engineering effort (i.e. hours) associated with Systems Engineering tasks.

    • DOORS and/or other requirements database tools

    • Understanding of the DoD acquisition processes and methods

    • Experience supporting one or more DoD programs

    • Object Management Group (OMG) Certified System Modeler Professional (OCSMP) certification

    • INCOSE Systems Engineering Professional (SEP) certification (ASEP or CSEP)

If you're looking for comfort, keep scrolling. At Leidos, we outthink, outbuild, and outpace the status quo — because the mission demands it. We're not hiring followers.
