Leidos develops and maintains enterprise access control solutions to ensure secure data sharing. Leidos requires system engineering support to provide total systems perspectives and technical understanding of relationships, dependencies, and requirements, as well as ensure deployments are well documented and meet SecDevOps standards. The systems engineering work spans multiple missions and environments. The development of these systems are managed using an agile methodology where the team decomposes user stories which are tracked using JIRA. Leidos requires a Systems Engineer to perform system engineering and system administration functions on systems such as Common Services or Identity and Access Management (IdAM), Data Dictionary (DAD), Customer Registration (eREG), and application auditing systems. They will work with stakeholders to implement systems build outs, recommend systems improvements to increase efficiency of operations, and translate requirements into platform infrastructure and software specifications.
The Systems Engineer will design, document and build a capability to report real time monitoring information and perform operations and maintenance activities for systems, to include performing monitoring and alerting, as well as ensuring availability, stability, performance, and recovery. They should be prepared to define system capacity and performance standards, maintain infrastructure platforms with current software releases, and update or create system design and technical specifications documentation and operations and maintenance standard operating procedures and How-To’s. The Systems Engineer will configure and maintain infrastructure associated with the cloud environment; design, document, and automate the build of AWS infrastructure; and support the AWS infrastructure for new systems. They will test system improvements and changes, conduct systems deployments, and support system re-accreditation. Additionally, the Systems Engineer will design, develop, and operate systems that automate code deployment and testing and write or modify scripts (e.g. bash scripts) to perform automation.
