Leidos

Leidos is a federal contractor headquartered in Reston, Virginia, that provides engineering, IT, intelligence, defense, health and science services to government customers. It runs some unusual government programs, including the Antarctic Support Contract for the National Science Foundation’s research stations. The listings on this page come from Leidos’s own careers site, not USAJOBS, so federal hiring rules do not apply; you are applying for a private-sector job that supports a government contract.

Recent listings have included airborne sensor operators, a senior fire protection engineer, an EVMS implementation analyst, a senior transmission line engineer and a substation civil and structural engineer, a systems engineer lead, a Kubernetes architect, cloud and solution architects, a senior AD and ICAM administrator, an information assurance analyst, a task order manager, a Chinese Mandarin linguist and instructor, and an Antarctic airfield manager and a seasonal McMurdo instrument technician.

Applying tip: read the clearance line first, because many Leidos postings require an active security clearance or the ability to obtain one, and that is a hard filter. Our Leidos guide and the contracting overview explain how contractor hiring differs from applying to an agency directly.
