The Defense Systems Sector is seeking a talented Systems Engineer to join a diverse team to create unique solutions for complex problems. With offices across the United States engaging in the defense, space, cyber and commercial fields, Leidos provides responsive, cost-effective engineering, scientific and IT solutions.

The Systems Engineer will work in a matrixed organization at Leidos, supporting a variety of programs on a team consisting of other Systems and Specialty engineers. A candidate with experience in other systems engineering areas such as Human Systems Integration (HSI), Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability (RAM) Analyses, Model-Based Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Risk Management will be treated preferentially. However, a BS in Systems Engineering (SE) or in other Engineering disciplines is what is required for this position.

The Systems Engineer will work with other engineers on large programs associated with the DoD, DARPA, NASA, and commercial applications. The selected candidate will support human systems integration needs throughout its design life cycle, including identifying and analyzing technological problems or risks, performing theoretical human factors investigations, dictating system interfaces, performing requirements development and verification, and developing and implementing research and analysis plans. The selected candidate may present the human systems integration artifacts they have developed to the customer in formal design reviews and may serve as a customer liaison in many of their programs. The selected candidate will also perform Systems Engineering duties such as developing requirements specifications derived from customer needs, interfacing with program management and design engineers to support the program's systems engineering needs throughout its design life cycle, including modeling system behavior, defining the system architecture, dictating system interfaces, performing requirements verification, helping develop test programs, and maintaining configuration management.
