Benefits & conditions

n Looking for an opportunity to make an impact?\n \n 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 sustainably. 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.\n \n \nYour greatest work is ahead!\n \n Leidos’ \nDefense Systems Land Systems is seeking a \nSystems Engineer to join a radar development team for a defense customer. Land Systems has a long history of radar development, including hardware design, algorithm development, and data analysis for a variety of customers.\n \n This Systems Engineer will join a team of seven other systems engineers, led by a senior systems engineer. In this role the Systems Engineer will work with the broader engineering team to develop detailed requirements specifications, including the system-, subsystem-, and component-level for the radar system. This systems engineer must have experience with developing systems engineering artifacts, including Requirements Specifications, Test Procedures, Test Reports, and CONOPS. In this role, the Systems Engineer may interact with Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) content, so experience in this area will be helpful. However, a strong background in requirements development is what is minimally necessary for this position.\n \n The \nSystems 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 \nSystems 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, 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.\n \n \nIf this sounds like the kind of environment where you can thrive, keep reading!\n \n
