Maritime Intelligence / Systems Engineer

The Leidos Analysis Solutions Business Area is seeking engineers to support the characterization of undersea naval and multi-domain threats at both the subsystem and integrated networked combat-system levels.

In this role, you will work at the intersection of engineering, all-source intelligence, C4ISR analysis, and threat characterization, helping transform complex intelligence into defensible, operationally relevant assessments that support countermeasure development and mission planning.

Program Objectives:

• Produce objective, tradecraft-compliant maritime finished intelligence (FINTEL) in accordance with ICD 203.
• Produce defensible, sourceable FINTEL in accordance with ICD 206.
• Maximize product disseminability to support countermeasure developers and operational stakeholders.
• Help close the sensor-to-shooter loop by connecting intelligence, engineering analysis, and operational vulnerabilities.

Primary Responsibilities:

• All-Source Intelligence Review: Review current intelligence assessments and reconcile available source holdings across the undersea domain, including Imagery Intelligence (IMINT), Electronic Intelligence (ELINT), Signals Intelligence (SIGINT), Human Intelligence (HUMINT), Geospatial Intelligence (GEOINT), Measurement and Signature Intelligence (MASINT), Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT), and Acoustic Intelligence (ACINT).
• C4ISR Architecture Characterization: Collaborate with engineering subject-matter experts to characterize adversary Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) architectures.
• Sensor-to-Vulnerability Analysis: Translate raw intelligence and technical data into operationally actionable assessments of adversary kill-chain architecture.
• Sensor-to-Shooter Chain Characterization: Characterize the full adversary sensor-to-shooter chain, from initial target detection through track development and reporting, fire-control solution generation, weapon-launch authorization, post-launch guidance and support, and battle damage assessment.
• Intra- and Inter-Platform Operations: Assess how threat platforms coordinate with other sensors, systems, and platforms.
• Targeting Data Quality: Evaluate track accuracy and latency requirements at key handoff points throughout the engagement chain.
• Disseminable FINTEL Production: Develop finished intelligence products consistent with customer sourcing and dissemination principles.

Required Education, Skills, and Experience:

• Bachelor’s degree in science, engineering, or a related relevant field and 8+ years-experience or master’s and 6+ years of relevant experience.
• Prior experience producing maritime intelligence products.
• Experience with signal processing and/or systems engineering.
• Experience working with SIGINT, OSINT, and other relevant all-source intelligence disciplines.
• Active Top Secret clearance with the ability to obtain SCI access.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Graduate degree in Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related technical field.
• Experience with Grapevine.
• Experience applying or working with Artificial Intelligence (AI).
• Candidates with a TS/SCI in-scope and active will be given preference.
