Original job description

Leidos is seeking an experienced Satellite Systems Engineer to support enterprise level SATCOM operations in Antarctica. The role involves providing technical operations and maintenance support to on-station seasonal Satellite Engineering staff, satellite system engineering for new systems and modification of existing systems, strategic planning, satellite time scheduling, spares inventory planning and control, creating and executing test plans, ensuring preventative maintenance is performed and documented, and managing standard operating procedures, technical procedures, and related documentation. This position often works closely with Project Managers and external organizations to create proposals, design solutions, and build or modify satellite terminals and related network equipment. The position requires annual deployments to Antarctica during the Austral Summer.

*** Deployment to Antarctica may be necessary at the discretion of management (approximately 4 to 16 weeks/year). The candidate in the position must complete the physical and dental examinations required by the NSF for deploying to Antarctica. ***

Due to contract requirements, US Citizenship is required.

Must obtain a Public Trust security clearance prior to start date. This process could take up to 4 months.

The anticipated annual salary range for this role is $140,000 - $155,000.

About the Antarctic Support Contract:

Leidos Antarctic Support Contract (ASC) is the prime contractor to the National Science Foundation (NSF) in support of the United States Antarctic Program (USAP). Leidos supports the NSF’s Office of Polar Program’s Antarctic Infrastructure and Logistics by aligning with their Mission and Vision Statements:

Vision: Expanding our scientific reach in Antarctica through increased operational and logistical effectiveness.
Mission: To provide the operational and logistical platform necessary for the U.S. to conduct world-class science in Antarctica and maintain its active and influential presence on the continent.

Leidos ASC provides science and logistics support for approximately 150 science and technical events across three geographically remote research stations; McMurdo Station, Palmer Station, and South Pole Station and several deep field sites across Antarctica. Each station or field site supports world class research across multiple science disciplines. The planning and implementation of science support requirements in Antarctica is a critical part of our mission. To learn more about the Leidos Antarctic Support contract, click here.

Ability to troubleshoot satellite systems issues, both in person and remotely
Proficiency with satellite system related test equipment and test procedures
Ability to provide remote support to on-station satellite engineering, network, and system administrator staff
Experience creating, updating, and coordinating maintenance procedures and maintenance log documentation
Ability to create and analyze link budgets
Knowledge of and experience applying safety standards
Experience working within a highly matrixed, cross-functional team environment
Strong communication skills, both verbal and written

*Please be advised that during the interview, you will be required to keep your camera on, and your interviewer will be taking your picture for identification purposes if an offer letter is extended to you.

*This position is eligible for deployment to Antarctica. Per contract and National Science Foundation requirements, candidates must not have been disciplined for, or separated from an employer prior to discipline for, incidents of stalking, sexual assault, or sexual harassment within the past three (3) years. Eligibility for deployment is also subject to further review, including background investigation and security screening, and NSF retains final authority over deployment eligibility given the sensitive and remote nature of the location. 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. We're recruiting the ones who disrupt, provoke, and refuse to fail. Step 10 is ancient history. We're already at step 30 - and moving faster than anyone else dares.

Original Posting:

October 28, 2026 For U.S. Positions: While subject to change based on business needs, Leidos reasonably anticipates that this job requisition will remain open for at least 3 days with an anticipated close date of no earlier than 3 days after the original posting date as listed above.

Pay Range $107,900.00 - $195,050.00 The Leidos pay range for this job level is a general guideline only and not a guarantee of compensation or salary. Additional factors considered in extending an offer include (but are not limited to) responsibilities of the job, education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities, as well as internal equity, alignment with market data, applicable bargaining agreement (if any), or other law.
