Job description

Position Overview
Join the National Security Sector at Leidos to support the crucial ACCA5JI JINTACCS mission. In this role, you will act as a Tactical Data Link (TDL) Systems Engineer, providing essential support to the USAF TDL Configuration and Logistics (C&L) process. You will play a vital part in providing TDL operators, planners, and users with a valuable resource to improve the operation and performance of tactical systems and data links.

Primary Responsibilities

  • Analyze and Characterize TDL Systems:Research and analyze TDL systems test reports and implementation databases to characterize how warfighters share information across TDLs. Focus on providing accurate C&L information and approved Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) for AF TDL systems.

  • Maintain and Update C&L Information:Review and update Capabilities & Limitations (C&L) information to reflect jointly agreed-upon core TDL aspects. Present information concisely and practically, using terminology and examples relevant to USAF combat operators.

  • Coordinate and Vet C&L Materials:Distribute newly developed C&L material to the appropriate weapon system's technical community for validation. This includes working with the weapon system's Program Office or assigned Subject Matter Expert (SME) to ensure accuracy.

  • Ensure Data Integrity:Verify that all C&L information complies with established business rules, including applying proper security classification markings and maintaining consistent spelling and formatting.

  • Develop Interoperability Reports:Research, draft, and coordinate the development of interoperability reports for platforms included in the C&L Operator Research Tool.

  • Create Official Documentation:Research and gather information to develop and support official documentation such as Background Papers, staff studies, Talking Papers, and presentation materials as assigned by the government.

Basic Qualifications

  • Education/Experience: Bachelor's degree in a technical field, such as computer science, engineering, or information technology, and 4 or more years of recent experience performing TDL analysis or operating USAF TDL systems using applicable military standards (US Mil-Std 3011, 6011, 6016, 6017, 6020, 6040, 188-220, and 2045-47001). Additional years of experience may be considered in lieu of degree.

  • Web Content Management:At least one (1) year of experience with web content development and management.

  • Security Clearance: Current or Active DoD Secret security clearance.

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 28, 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 $67,600.00 - $122,200.00

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.
