Original job description

Description

Looking for an opportunity to make an impact?

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 sustainable. 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.

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 System Safety Engineer to join a matrixed organization of systems engineers, model-based systems engineers, and specialty systems engineers. This System Safety Engineer will primarily support a vehicle-based radar development program, but has the opportunity to support multiple efforts simultaneously.

These efforts will involve analysis of the systems hardware and software safety to the operator and equipment in accordance with MIL-STD-882, consisting of both classified and unclassified work. The System Safety Engineer will work independently, coordinating with other Integrated Product Teams (IPTs) on these efforts, defining their own tasking derived from customer needs and contractual documents.

Each effort will require different specific safety artifacts including hazard tracking, mitigation, and regular reporting to the customer via deliverables. The Safety Engineer will lead the prime contractor system safety working group both engaging the customer and work hand-in-hand with the program's systems engineers and human factors engineers to ensure system compliance and verify customer needs are met. This role offers the opportunity to make a significant impact on critical defense programs while developing expertise across multiple concurrent efforts.

A candidate with experience in other engineering areas such as Risk Management, Systems Engineering, Human Factors Engineering, and Reliability Analysis will be treated preferentially. Success in this organization often leads to leadership positions in System Safety Engineering, Systems Engineering, and Systems Engineering Integration and Test (SEIT).

Basic Qualifications

Bachelor’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 3+ years of experience or an MS with 1+ years.
Demonstrated familiarity with MIL-STD-882E and its application to system safety programs
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.
Candidate must be a US Citizen and possess (and be able to maintain) a Final Secret Clearance or meet the eligibility to obtain (and maintain) a Secret Clearance.

Preferred Qualifications

Preferred candidates will also have experience and/or working knowledge with:

Familiarity with AR 385-10, AR 385-16, AR 770-3, and AMCOM 385-17
Knowledge of Army Safety Board processes and preparation
Software System Safety Technical Review Panel (SSSTRP) coordination
Experience conducting hazard analyses (PHA, FHA, SHA, SSHA, O&SHA, EHA, HHA, FTA, FMEA)
Proficiency with safety tools and databases (e.g., hazard tracking systems, model-based systems engineering, requirement databases)
Demonstrated experience effectively leading a team of engineers
Demonstrated experience accurately estimating the engineering effort (i.e. hours) associated with System Safety Engineering tasks
Understanding of the DoD acquisition processes and methods
Experience supporting one or more DoD programs
Object Management Group (OMG) Certified System Modeler Professional (OCSMP) certification
INCOSE Systems Engineering Professional (SEP) certification (ASEP or CSEP)
