This role involves designing and integrating advanced electrical power systems for next-generation platforms, including manned and unmanned maritime applications. Candidates with experience in industrial, commercial, or defense-related electrical systems are encouraged to apply.

The successful candidate will contribute to both new system development and upgrades of existing platforms. Familiarity with challenging environmental conditions, regulatory compliance, and hands-on system commissioning is highly valued.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and develop electrical power systems, including AC/DC distribution, switchgear, and control systems
  • Create and update electrical schematics and layouts using AutoCAD
  • Ensure designs meet applicable standards such as IEEE, ABS, DNV, USCG, and IMO
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate electrical subsystems into larger platforms
  • Support prototype development, testing, and deployment
  • Conduct verification and validation of electrical systems
  • Prepare technical documentation including test plans, reports, and design packages
  • Troubleshoot and optimize systems for performance and reliability

  • 3+ years of professional experience in electrical system design and integration
  • Proficiency in AutoCAD for electrical documentation
  • Solid understanding of analog/digital circuits and power distribution
  • Willingness to travel for field testing and system integration

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with marine, industrial, or defense electrical systems

  • Knowledge of MIL-STD design practices and regulatory compliance
  • Prior involvement in DoD or government programs
  • Understanding of cybersecurity principles for control systems
  • Familiarity with industrial networking protocols (e.g., Modbus, CANbus, NMEA 2000)

At Leidos, we don’t want someone who "fits the mold"—we want someone who melts it down and builds something better. This is a role for the restless, the over-caffeinated, the ones who ask, “what’s next?” before the dust settles on “what’s now.”

If you’re already scheming step 20 while everyone else is still debating step 2… good. You’ll fit right in.

Original Posting: October 21, 2025

For U.S. Positions: While subject to change based on business needs, Leidos reasonably anticipates that this job requisition will remain open for at least 3 days with an anticipated close date of no earlier than 3 days after the original posting date as listed above.

Pay Range: Pay Range $85,150.00 - $153,925.00

The Leidos pay range for this job level is a general guideline only and not a guarantee of compensation or salary. Additional factors considered in extending an offer include (but are not limited to) responsibilities of the job, education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities, as well as internal equity, alignment with market data, applicable bargaining agreement (if any), or other law.
