Job description

Leidos is seeking a skilled Database Engineer to support the DHS Insider Threat Program (ITP) under the HEITS Contract.

Responsibilities

As the Database Engineer, you will:

  • Maintain and support the ITP database backend infrastructure

  • Perform routine maintenance: reindexing, backups, transaction log truncation, cluster management

  • Design and implement database encryption solutions (e.g., Transparent Data Encryption - TDE)

  • Document and maintain configuration baselines

  • Develop and execute system recapitalization plans to support capacity growth

  • Serve as the SME for all database infrastructure

  • Create and optimize stored procedures, queries, and views

  • Support data warehouse features and integrations

  • Optimize database schemas for referential integrity, cascading transactions, indexing, and performance

Basic Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree with 12+ years of relevant experience, or Master’s degree with 10+ years

  • Expertise in Oracle database management, upgrades, and maintenance

  • Experience with SQL, PostgreSQL, and other database types

  • Ability to integrate diverse data types into cloud containers (e.g., AWS S3)

  • Strong understanding of DBMS and database design principles

  • Experience with database migrations and data lake/repository connectors

  • Eligibility to obtain DHS EOD SCI clearance

Preferred Qualifications

  • Master’s degree in IT Management, Engineering, or related field

  • 10+ years of experience in IT service delivery management

  • Familiarity with User Activity Monitoring platforms

  • Experience with Everfox High Speed Guard Platform

  • Proficiency with Oracle, Microsoft SQL, PostgreSQL, or other DBMS platforms

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:

October 2, 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.
