About The Position

Leidos National Security Sector’s Mission Solutions Business Area is seeking a highly experienced Chief Engineer to lead its multidisciplined engineering team in utilizing advanced technologies to improve U.S. DoD counter WMD and Hardened Facility defeat capabilities through enhanced analysis, modeling and simulations of critical processes, system of system infrastructures and structural characteristics of select facilities of interest to identify vulnerabilities and potential defeat vectors. This will be accomplished through driving innovations to existing processes by incorporating such things as Building Information Modeling (BIM), Modeling and Simulation (M&S) tools, and Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML). As Chief Engineer, the selected candidate will define and execute the technical vision and strategy, provide technical leadership and guidance, and drive innovation by evaluating and integrating emerging technologies and methodologies into the production workflow to increase product fidelity and production efficiency. These efforts culminate in the regular delivery of models, simulations, demonstrations, briefings, and reports to support follow-on planning, acquisition, and capability development efforts.
