Leidos’ Undersea Systems Division is a recognized leader in undersea technologies, delivering innovative, mission-critical solutions across sensor networks, unmanned systems, and tactical platforms. We’re known for achieving “industry firsts” in the most challenging maritime domains, as well as supporting well-developed processes and procedures to support excellence in execution for our customers.

Join us and be part of a world-class team delivering unmatched solutions for today's most pressing maritime missions.

Why Join Us?
· Make a Mission Impact:
See your work directly contribute to U.S. maritime dominance by delivering and sustaining critical systems the warfighter depends on.
· Turn Capability into Readiness:
Support proven technologies through production, integration, fielding, and long-term operational support.
· Own Real-World Results:
Solve the production, quality, supply chain, and sustainment challenges that determine whether complex systems are ready when the mission demands them.
· Work with an Exceptional Team:
Collaborate with engineers, manufacturing professionals, technicians, program teams, suppliers, and customers to deliver reliable systems.
· Build Capability That Lasts:
Help improve how we produce, support, upgrade, and sustain maritime systems throughout their operational lifecycle.

What You’ll Do
· Provide hands-on electrical engineering support for the production, integration, testing, and sustainment of complex maritime systems.
· Troubleshoot electrical and electronic hardware at the component, assembly, and system level to resolve production and field issues.
· Perform technical investigations and root-cause analysis, developing practical engineering solutions that improve reliability, manufacturability, and system performance.
· Develop and maintain electrical schematics, cable and wiring diagrams, bills of material, test procedures, specifications, and other technical documentation needed to support production.
· Work closely with manufacturing, quality, supply chain, technicians, and suppliers to resolve electrical component, circuit card, cabling, connector, and assembly challenges.
· Support component selection, configuration changes, obsolescence management, part substitutions, repairs, and technology refreshes throughout the product lifecycle.
· Support electrical integration and test activities, including test equipment, failure analysis, troubleshooting, and disposition of nonconforming hardware.
· Provide engineering support for fielded systems, helping ensure delivered products remain reliable, supportable, and mission ready.
