Your greatest work is ahead!

The National Security Sector (NSS) seeks highly qualified and trained Cyberspace Subject Matter Experts with deep experience supporting USCYBERCOM to lead Joint Operations Center (JOC) 24x7x365 and JOC support operations. Individuals will advise government senior managers regarding the best utilization of resources, optimization of capabilities and processes, and best practices across the J3.

Cyber SMEs will participate in robust cross training initiatives and all personnel will be certified and willing to support surge operations across the entirety of JOC missions. This opportunity is in anticipation of a future contract award.

  • Provide subject matter expertise in managing a contract workforce supporting JOC operations.

  • Have experience integrating capabilities to better support operations.
  • Navigate organizational structure as it pertains to full spectrum CO, including the functions, responsibilities, and interrelationships among distinct internal elements.
  • Communicate complex information, concepts, or ideas in a confident and well-organized manner through verbal, written, and / or visual means.

What does Leidos need from me?

  • BA / BS degree or higher within STEM field, National Security Studies, or field of study supporting operational art & science. Additional years of experience may be considered in lieu of degree.

    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 : September 10, 2025

    Pay Range :

    Pay Range $126,100.00 - $227,950.00

    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 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.
