At Northrop Grumman, our employees have incredible opportunities to work on revolutionary systems that impact people s lives around the world today, and for generations to come. Our pioneering and inventive spirit has enabled us to be at the forefront of many technological advancements in our nation s history - from the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean, to stealth bombers, to landing on the moon.

We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work — and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they re making history.

Please note that this opportunity is contingent on program funding. Start dates are determined after funding confirmation.

For all internal NGAS Engineering candidates, we have developed a Homeroom-driven hiring process aligned to discipline-specific Ambassadors. They will be your point of contact and will support you throughout the selection process. If you apply to this Workday requisition, a Talent Acquisition professional will email you with the corresponding Ambassador’s information for next steps.

At Northrop Grumman, we Define Possible. We are a passionate community of engineers and leaders, a creative community of scientists and researchers, a diverse community of human beings, all driven to pioneer the future. And in Survivability, that future is bright… Or, from the enemy’s perspective, it is as dark as the cover of a moonless night.
