Description

Project Analyst – National Security Program | Reston, VA

Empower Your Career. Support a Mission That Matters.

Leidos is seeking a driven and detail-oriented Project Analyst to join our National Security team in Reston, VA. In this role, you’ll support a high-impact program that directly contributes to our customer’s operational success. You’ll work in a dynamic environment alongside dedicated professionals who take pride in delivering excellence every day.

We’re looking for a self-starter and problem solver who thrives in a fast-paced setting, enjoys collaborating with others, and takes ownership of their work. You’ll play a critical role in supporting program operations, including timekeeping, travel coordination, and financial management — ensuring smooth execution and mission success.

Why Join Leidos?

At Leidos, you’re not just part of a company, you’re part of a mission.

We offer:
  • A culture of innovation and teamwork, where your ideas matter
  • Comprehensive benefits including health coverage, retirement plans, and paid leave
  • Career growth opportunities and professional development support
  • Stock purchase options that let you share in our long-term success


Your Impact:
  • Serve as a key point of contact for over 100+ program personnel, managing timecards, travel expenses, and process improvement efforts
  • Deliver insightful cost-reduction recommendations and identify opportunities for financial efficiency
  • Independently handle PMO and customer inquiries, providing clear, actionable information
  • Coordinate travel and financial operations, ensuring compliance and accuracy in a 24x7 operational environment
  • Collaborate across teams — including program management, customer leadership, and field operations — to drive seamless communication and results
  • Track, analyze, and report on program expenses, payments, and vouchers
  • Support additional PMO and sponsor requirements to help achieve program milestones


What You’ll Bring:
  • Active TS/SCI clearance with polygraph (required)
  • Bachelor’s degree and 12 – 15 years of prior relevant experience or Masters with 10 – 13 years of prior relevant experience; additional experience may substitute for education
  • Proven organizational, analytical, and problem-solving abilities
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office and familiarity with financial systems
  • Strong understanding of customer operations and mission requirements


Come break things (in a good way). Then build them smarter.

We're the tech company everyone calls when things get weird. We don’t wear capes (they’re a safety hazard), but we do solve high-stakes problems with code, caffeine, and a healthy disregard for “how it’s always been done.”
