About the role

Northrop Grumman is seeking a Senior Principal Systems Architect to join our Baltimore, MD team on a full-time, on-site basis. You will lead the system architecture, guide major development programs, and ensure alignment with cost, schedule, and risk constraints. A secret clearance and strong MBSE skills are required. You will collaborate across hardware, software, and firmware disciplines, deliver technical presentations, and shape system architectures to meet DoD requirements.

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.
