Position Description

Dynetics, a wholly owned subsidiary of Leidos, is seeking a Reliability Engineer to join a diverse, highly-skilled team to create unique solutions for complex problems involving foreign weapons systems. With offices across the United States engaging in the defense, space, cyber and commercial fields, Dynetics provides responsive, cost-effective intelligence, engineering, scientific and IT solutions.

The Reliability Engineer will perform reliability prediction analysis in support of product development programs associated with the DoD, DARPA, NASA, and commercial applications. The selected candidate will interface with program management to select a reliability prediction methodology appropriate to each unique customer/program, and execute the plan to provide insight into predicted system reliability throughout the design life cycle. The Reliability Engineer’s analysis will be utilized to inform detailed design decisions on each program and help characterize each program’s technical risk. The selected candidate will present the results of their analyses to the customer in formal design reviews and may serve as a customer liaison in many of their programs.

The Reliability Engineer will work in a matrixed organization at Dynetics, supporting multiple programs at once in a variety of engineering fields with all different team environments, from the large-scale programs that Dynetics is the prime contractor for, like the Hypersonics Weapons Program and High Energy Laser Program, to smaller-scale programs for which Dynetics provides support as a subcontractor to companies in the top 100 DoD contractors.
