🚀 Join a Mission-Driven Team at Leidos!

At Leidos, innovation isn’t just a buzzword—it’s our way of life. We tackle the world’s toughest challenges with creativity, integrity, and a deep commitment to excellence. Our teams are diverse, driven, and united by a shared purpose: to empower communities, protect national interests, and deliver success for our customers.

Your Next Career Adventure Starts Here

The National Security Sector at Leidos is seeking a Network Administrator to support the Anti-Submarine Warfare Virtual Operator Trainer (ASW VOT) Government Information System. This mission-critical role supports the Program Executive Office Integrated Warfare Systems (PEO IWS 5B) and plays a key part in advancing naval training and readiness.

What You'll Do

As a hands-on technical expert, you'll be the go-to problem solver and system guardian in a secured DoD training facility. Your day-to-day will include:

  • 🔧 Responding to trouble tickets and resolving issues directly with system users

  • 🖥️ Installing and repairing hardware (servers, switches, workstations, UPS, peripherals)

  • 🧠 Managing a centralized server room and Network Operations Center, including inventory and access control

  • 🐧 Supporting Linux operations: desktop support, KVM/VM management, IAM, ssh, NFS, iSCSI, NTP, and more

  • 🧵 Running and terminating cables, managing server racks, and assisting with classroom/server room setups

  • 📊 Aggregating and reporting system status and trouble ticket data

  • 🔐 Operating daily inside a SCIF (Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility) with limited personal device access

Primary Responsibilities

  • Be a key member of our Customer On-Site Maintenance Support (COMS) team

  • Triage and resolve hardware/software issues from both local and remote sites

  • Participate in technical refreshes and manage inventory of system components

  • Ensure daily maintenance and operational readiness of the ASW VOT system

Basic Qualifications

  • High school diploma

  • 2+ years of relevant experience

  • U.S. Citizenship with ability to obtain/maintain a DoD Secret Clearance

  • IAT Level 1 Certification (e.g., CompTIA A+, Network+, Security+, CCNA Security)

Preferred Qualifications

  • CompTIA Linux+ Certification

  • RHCSA/RHCE Red Hat Certifications

  • Experience with AN/SQQ-89A(v)15 systems

  • Familiarity with distributed compute clusters for virtualized environments

💡 Why Leidos?

Because here, your work matters. You’ll be part of a team that values your expertise, supports your growth, and celebrates your contributions. If you're ready to take on a role where technology meets mission, and where your skills directly impact national security—this is your moment.

EIO2024

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 3, 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 $39,650.00 - $71,675.00

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.
