At Raytheon, the foundation of everything we do is rooted in our values and a higher calling – to help our nation and allies defend freedoms and deter aggression.

The Air & Space Defense Systems (ASDS) Air Dominance Business Office is seeking an experienced and motivated financial analyst looking to expand their business acumen within the sustainment portfolio of the Air Dominance SSBU.  This subset of the portfolio consists of both fixed-price and cost-type contracts and ranges from discrete Engineering labor to interaction with the factory on material order coverage, as well as HPU forecasting and delivery-based invoicing.  The overall Sustainment portfolio averages 200+ FTEs, include annual sales of ~$100M, and has an extremely strong long-range plan.
