Description
At Northrop Grumman, our employees have incredible opportunities to work on revolutionary systems that impact people's lives around the world today, and for generations to come. Our pioneering and inventive spirit has enabled us to be at the forefront of many technological advancements in our nation's history - from the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean, to stealth bombers, to landing on the moon. We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work - and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they're making history.
As a leader in the Survivability National Directorate, you will be responsible for leading a team developing cutting edge Survivability solutions. Our work influences the design of the next generation of aircraft and is a driving force behind the investment decisions of our senior leadership and customer program offices. We work closely with our external customers and internal collaborators to further the technologies at the heart of Aircraft Survivability. We frequently collaborate across functional disciplines, offering highly unique opportunities to obtain a broad understanding of many technical areas, or to more narrowly focus on developing a deep expertise in any one of our sub-disciplines.
This position will be located on-site, in California at either of our South Bay (Redondo Beach / El Segundo) or Rancho Bernardo facilities, or in Florida at our Melbourne facility. The successful candidate will fill the role of Section Manager for a team of Survivability Engineers, in a dual-hat role responsible for both section management (20%) and program/projects or other technical responsibilities (80%).
