Dynetics, a Leidos Company, is seeking a talented  Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) Engineer  to join a diverse team creating unique solutions for complex problems. With offices across the United States engaging in the defense, space, cyber and commercial fields, Dynetics provides responsive, cost-effective engineering, scientific and IT solutions. Dynetics is seeking a GNC Engineer to support developmental efforts for guidance, navigation, and control of air, land, and sea launched flight systems. As a result of recent growing programs, such as the AGM-190/A Small Cruise Missile, US SOCOM’s GBU 69/B Small Glide Munition, multiple Hypersonic Missile programs, DARPA’s Gremlins program, and other rapid development efforts. Dynetics is looking for a GNC Engineer who is experienced with flight vehicles, guided munitions, and/or UAS systems. The successful applicant will demonstrate prior work or graduate level research as applied to the development of navigation, guidance, and/or autopilot algorithms, along with an ability to support GNC development on advanced weapon systems in a highly accelerated schedule to meet critical needs for the warfighters. Streamlined development efforts will result in concept-to-flight timelines measured in months, not years. The candidate is expected to directly support development efforts while mentoring and training engineering staff throughout development. Primary Responsibilities Engineers in this position are responsible for the development and analysis of guidance, navigation and autopilot algorithms and implementation of these items in 6DOF simulations, Hardware-In-the-Loop (HWIL) facilities, and operational flight software. Additionally, the candidate should be capable of conducting trade studies for design decisions, developing techniques to assess, validate and verify performance, and supporting flight tests with pre-flight predictions and post-flight analyses. Basic Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in engineering or physics plus 2 or more years of work or graduate level research experience with feedback control system design, trajectory optimization, guidance, navigation, and/or optimal estimation with knowledge of basic aerodynamic principles. Strong math skills are required in the areas of linear algebra, matrix math, statistics, and trigonometry and coordinate transformation. Must be experienced in MATLAB, Simulink, and C/C++ programming. Candidate must possess solid technical communication skills and an ability to work in both collaborative team environments and independently. Candidates must be a resident of the North Alabama area or willing to relocate in order to work on-site at the Huntsville, AL office. Preferred Qualifications Familiarity/experience with DoD digital engineering paradigm. Experience in terrestrial navigation, SAASM, M-Code, and GPS-denied operations are also desired.  MS degree or higher is strongly desired If you're looking for comfort, keep scrolling. At Leidos, we outthink, outbuild, and outpace the status quo — because the mission demands it. We're not hiring followers. We're recruiting the ones who disrupt, provoke, and refuse to fail. Step 10 is ancient history. We're already at step 30 — and moving faster than anyone else dares. Original Posting: January 30, 2026 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.
