Our team is solving the world’s toughest security challenges for customers with “can’t fail” missions. Leidos Defense is seeking a talented Senior Reliability Engineer to join a diverse team to create unique solutions for complex problems.

The expectation is for the Senior Reliability Engineer to manage RAM Engineering work internally within the Defense Sector (and Leidos as a whole) by fielding requests from project managers, support Basis of Estimation (BoE) development for proposed RAM work and shape the company’s overall approach to Reliability Engineering via tool selection and training of other reliability team members. The selected candidate will have a significant impact on the development of reliability artifacts such as reliability prediction, MTTR analysis, reliability block diagrams (RBD), reliability reports, statistics, FMEA, and FTA. Lastly, the Defense Sector’s focus is on hiring a candidate with subject matter expertise in reliability prediction analyses, but experience with production and sustainment related activities like Failure Reporting, Analysis, and Corrective Action Systems (FRACAS) is beneficial. The Senior RAM Engineer will work in a matrixed organization at Leidos, supporting multiple programs at once in a variety of engineering fields with different team environments, from the large-scale programs that Leidos is the prime contractor for, to smaller-scale programs for which Leidos provides support as a subcontractor to companies in the top 100 DoD contractors. The candidate will join a diverse team of other RAM engineers, systems engineers and specialty engineers (e.g., Safety and Human Factors, Risk, Test) within Leidos and have the opportunity to work on programs from their preferred background, as well as challenge themselves by working on programs outside of their expertise. ### Basic Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Systems Engineering, Software Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering or equivalent technical/engineering degree from an ABET-accredited university.
