At the heart of Defining Possible is our commitment to missions. In rapidly changing global security environments, Northrop Grumman brings informed insights and secure technological solutions to enable strategic objectives. We’re looking for innovators who can help us keep building on our wide portfolio of secure, affordable, integrated, and multi-domain systems and technologies that fuel those missions. By joining in our shared mission, we will support yours of expanding your personal network and developing skills, whether you are new to the field or an industry thought leader. At Northrop Grumman, you will have the resources, support, and team to do some of the best work of your career.

Northrop Grumman’s Chief Information and Digital Office (CIDO) is seeking an Information Technology Manager (M3) to lead the CIDO Engineering Digital Solutions organization in support of Mission Systems Engineering & Sciences (E&S). This leader will report to the CIDO Engineering & Operations Director and serve as the primary CIDO interface to Mission Systems E&S for engineering tools, the product development digital thread, the engineering data ecosystem, and AI/agentic enabled solutions.

This role will be located in Linthicum, MD and requires full-time, on-site presence at our Linthicum, MD campus. This is a transformational digital leadership role ideal for a leader who can act with speed, build strong partnerships, and turn strategy into execution and measurable outcomes.

What You’ll Get To Do:

In this position, you will serve as the CIDO Engineering Digital Solutions leader, responsible for a team of ~60 professionals across four key domains:

1. Engineering Applications & Infrastructure

• Administration, consolidation, and optimization of engineering applications and licenses.

• Engineering visualization and dashboarding.

• High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems administration.

• Technical support for standardized engineering tools across unclassified, classified, and off-network environments.

2. Electrical Engineering Tools

• Administration and optimization of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) electrical engineering design tools and environments.

3. Mechanical Engineering Tools

• Administration and optimization of COTS mechanical engineering design tools and environments.

4. Systems & Software Engineering Tools

• Administration and optimization of systems and software engineering tools, including compilers, code analysis, requirements management, and related environments.

You will partner closely with Mission Systems E&S leadership (Managers, Directors, and select VPs), as well as CIDO service line leaders, to define the digital vision, set priorities, and co-own key engineering outcomes. You will shape multi-year roadmaps, manage investments, and deliver digital and AI/agentic enabled capabilities that:

• Reduce design cycle time (speed with quality is the #1 goal).

• Improve On Time Release (OTR) and Work In Progress (WIP) health.

• Reduce Scrap, Rework, and Repair (SRR).

• Improve First Time Through Test Yield (FTTTY).

• Support On Time Delivery (OTD).

You will strengthen the digital ecosystem and infrastructure (tools, data storage, compute, converged networks) to ensure the necessary software, hardware, and data capabilities are in place to support current programs and future growth.
