Lead, Systems Engineer (TS/SCI)

L3Harris has been focused on the “high frontier” since the beginning of the Space Age.

We help protect the U.S.

by providing weather, climate and atmospheric data and by developing, modernizing, and sustaining the ground-based radars and optical systems that find, fix, and track objects in space or in our atmosphere.

We ensure the delivery of critical information from those systems for weather predictions and effective battle management, command, and control.

Looking further into space, Harris’ optical systems, as part of the world’s most advanced telescopes and observatories, and related services enable scientists to gain a clearer picture and better understanding of the universe.
