About the role

RTX is seeking a Director and Senior Counsel specializing in Government Contracts to provide expert legal counsel within the Corporate Legal, Contracts & Compliance organization. You will support all aspects of U.S. Government contracting and ensure compliance with procurement regulations. The ideal candidate will hold a JD, be a member of a state bar in good standing, and have at least seven years of relevant experience. The role is hybrid, providing flexibility with work arrangements.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
