Job description

Network Engineering & Operations Intern

Leidos, a leading defense, intelligence, and technology company, is seeking motivated and aspiring technology students for our Summer 2027 Internship Program (Starts May 2027). As a Network Engineering & Operations Intern, you will join our Digital Sector on the Global Solutions Management – Operations II (GSM-O II) contract at Scott AFB, IL. This is a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience supporting the Defense Information System Network (DISN), one of the world's largest and most complex networks, in direct support of the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA). Your Opportunity: As our team helps lead DISA's transition to next-generation telecommunication platforms, you will be embedded directly with our engineering and operations teams. You will learn how critical military communication infrastructure is designed, implemented, and sustained, giving you real-world experience that you can't get in a classroom. You won't be working on a test network; you will be performing real tasks on the live, global network that supports the DoD's most critical missions.

What You'll Do (Potential Projects & Learning Opportunities):

  • Shadow and assist senior engineers with customer coordination, network testing, and new service activations.
  • Gain exposure to the Change Management process by learning how Service Orders and Telecommunication Service Orders (TSOs) are managed.
  • Learn how to analyze network databases and documentation to validate customer requirements.
  • Assist in monitoring network health and performance after scheduled changes are implemented.
  • Collaborate with a team of experienced engineers and analysts, learning how to translate technical problems into actionable solutions.
  • Gain an understanding of how different DISA organizations work together to fulfill mission partner requirements.

What You'll Bring (Required):

  • Citizenship & Clearance: Must be a U.S. citizen and eligible to obtain a DoD Secret security clearance.
  • Education: Currently pursuing a degree in a relevant field such as Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related engineering discipline.
  • Technical Foundation: A foundational understanding of basic networking concepts (e.g., TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP) and the OSI model.
  • Analytical Mindset: A strong desire to learn, keen attention to detail, and a proactive approach to problem-solving.
  • Teamwork: A collaborative attitude with strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Location: This internship is based on-site at Scott AFB, Illinois. All work must be performed on site – no teleworking opportunities.

What We Want (Desired):

  • Certifications: Obtaining a CompTIA Security+ certification (or any certification that aligns with DoD 8570 IAT Level II) before the start date is strongly encouraged.
  • Hands-On Experience: Experience from home labs, class projects, or prior internships is highly desirable.
  • Familiarity with:
    • Basic router/switch configurations.
    • Using ServiceNow or other ITSM ticketing systems.
    • Working in a team-based, project-oriented environment.
