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 Senior Systems Engineer to join a team of systems engineers developing a radar system. In this role, the Senior Systems Engineer will interface with the Software Development Team, Hardware Development Team, Analysis Team, Logistics Team, and Test & Integration Team to help lead trade study development, plan and execute the technical effort, and support proposals leveraging the radar technology. This Senior Systems Engineer will help develop systems engineering artifacts, including Requirements Specifications, Test Procedures, Test Reports, and Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) content.

 

The Senior 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 radar program ends, the Senior Systems Engineer will have the opportunity to support a different program in the matrixed engineering portfolio. A candidate with experience in other engineering areas such as Test, Model-Based Systems Engineering, Human Factors, 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.

 

Basic Qualifications

  • 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.
  • Possess a secret clearance, or have the ability to obtain a secret clearance.

  • MagicDraw and/or other Model Based System Engineering (MBSE) modeling tools
  • Demonstrated experience effectively leading a team of engineers.
  • Demonstrated cross-discipline collaboration.

  • DOORS and/or other requirements database tools
  • Understanding of the DoD acquisition processes and methods
  • Experience supporting one or more DoD programs
