Our team is solving the world’s toughest security challenges for customers with “can’t fail” missions.\nLeidos 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 have a focus in Risk Management for multiple Hypersonics contracts. This role will entail developing and managing systems engineering deliverables, including requirements specifications, interface control documents (ICDs), verification plans, and concepts of operations (CONOPS). As part of this role’s focus in Risk Management, the systems engineer will elicit risks and opportunities, mitigations, and detailed information pertaining to risks from fellow team members, develop a recurring deliverable related to risks, and present findings to program leadership and the customer. In this role, the systems engineer will have to balance both aspects of their work to ensure timely delivery of contract deliverables. What is minimally required in this role is experience in systems engineering with a willingness to learn risk management.\nThe 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 efforts end, 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 Lead Systems Engineering, Human Factors Engineering, Model-Based Systems Engineering, and Reliability Analysis will be treated preferentially. However, this position minimally requires a strong background in traditional Systems Engineering and Risk Management.\nBasic Qualifications\nBachelor’s degree in Systems Engineering, Software Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or equivalent degree from an ABET-accredited university with 6+ years of experience or an MS with 4+ years.\nExperience in deriving requirements for complex electrical, electro-mechanical, mechanical, and software systems.\nPosition requires candidates to be capable of performing in a collaborative engineering environment working closely with multi-disciplinary teams.\nDemonstrated experience effectively communicating within a team environment.\nResident of the North Alabama area or willing to relocate to the Huntsville - North Alabama, AL area.\nPossess a secret clearance.\nPreferred Qualifications\nPreference shown to candidates who possess a Master of Science in System Engineering from an ABET-accredited university, and/or have at least 2-4 years of direct systems engineering experience.\nPreferred candidates will also have experience and/or working knowledge with:\nExperience in performing risk management for Defense applications on large-scale programs at various points in the systems development lifecycle.\nDemonstrated experience effectively leading a team of engineers.\nDemonstrated experience accurately estimating the engineering effort (i.e. hours) associated with Systems Engineering tasks.\nUnderstanding of the DoD acquisition processes and methods\nExperience supporting one or more DoD programs\nObject Management Group (OMG) Certified System Modeler Professional (OCSMP) certification\nINCOSE Systems Engineering Professional (SEP) certification (ASEP or CSEP)\nIf 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. We're recruiting the ones who disrupt, provoke, and refuse to fail.
