Vs industry benchmark
-3%
midpoint $140k vs $144k
Leidos's median band midpoint of $140k sits 3% below the SpaceNexus industry benchmark of $144k: the median across 58 curated space-industry roles, US base salary, as of 2026-08. Mix matters: an employer hiring mostly technicians will sit below a benchmark weighted toward engineers, and vice versa.
By role family
Titles are clustered into families (a "Senior Propulsion Engineer" and a "Turbomachinery Lead" both land in Propulsion). The band is the median of the family's listings.
