About the role

This is a Mid Level role in the Technology field (Cybersecurity) at Leidos. Mid-level roles usually expect some years of relevant experience and the ability to work with limited supervision.

We could not match this job title to one occupation in the official wage statistics, so no pay estimate is shown. Pay is not in the source listing; ask the employer for the range and compare in the 240 job niches.

Does the pay work here? (estimate)

Gross salary a year Filing State income tax rate %

Estimate for a wage earner: 2026 federal brackets and standard deduction (IRS), Social Security 6.2% up to $184,500, Medicare 1.45% (+0.9% above $200,000 single / $250,000 married), and a state rate you set; set your own state tax rate. It ignores credits, pre-tax deductions, local taxes and benefits. Sources: IRS: tax year 2026 inflation adjustments · SSA wage base per Federal Register notice 2025-19763.

How to prepare and behave

This is editorial guidance, not information from the employer.

Read the whole description and match your examples to its requirements; use the same words the posting uses where they are true for you.
Research the employer before the interview: what it does, who its customers are and recent news; prepare two or three questions about the work.
Arrive early (or log in early for a video call), dress one step above the daily dress code, and test your camera and audio beforehand.
Answer with short stories: the situation, what you did and the result. Give numbers when you have them and never invent them.
Be honest about gaps; say what you did to learn and how fast you can close them.
Ask about the team, the first 90 days, how success is measured and the schedule; do not open with salary and time off.
When pay comes up, know the market range for the occupation and your lowest acceptable offer before you answer; ask for the full package in writing.
Send a short thank-you message within a day, mentioning one thing you discussed.
Have code, data work or projects you can show, and be ready to think aloud: many technical interviews test how you reason, not only the answer.

Know your rights as a candidate and an employee:

The city

The job is in Orlando, FL. Below is what the official statistics say about living and working there.

How Orlando compares. Among the 120 largest places in Florida, Orlando is #4 by population, #116 for homeownership (#1 = highest), #22 for long commutes (#1 = fewest), #31 for college degrees (#1 = most). Its county, Orange County, is #8 of 67 counties for average pay ($67,805).

The place in numbers

Orlando has 319,758 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 1.4% of the population of Florida. It covers 111 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 2,878 people per square mile. The median age is 35.1, 18% younger than the state median (35.1 against 42.6).

Housing

The median gross rent is $1,747 a month (rent plus utilities), 5% above the state median ($1,747 against $1,669). Over a year that is 29.0% of the median household income. US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $394,100, which is 5.4 times the median household income ($72,336); a ratio above 5 usually means buying is out of reach without savings or a second income. 39.5% of households own their home, 42% below the state average (39.5% against 67.6%). A low ownership share points to a rental-heavy market with more apartments and shorter stays.

Work and pay

The Orlando-Kissimmee-Sanford, FL metropolitan area has 1,411,730 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $46,630 a year, 9% below the national median ($46,630 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are office and administrative support (173,110 jobs, median $44,730); food preparation and serving related (163,040 jobs, median $34,190); sales and related (150,550 jobs, median $36,780). The area is most specialised in arts, design, entertainment, sports, and media (1.6 times) and personal care and service (1.5 times), where the share of workers is well above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($106,820) and computer and mathematical ($101,550). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of Orange County was 4.2%. 72.2% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in Orange County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.

Getting around

Among workers, 68.1% drive alone, 1.9% use public transit, 1.6% walk, 16.2% work from home. 12.0% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 34% below the state average (12.0% against 18.1%).

People and education

42.5% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 25% above the state share (42.5% against 34.1%). 25.4% of residents were born outside the United States, 16% above the state share (25.4% against 21.9%). The poverty rate is 14.7%, 17% above the state rate (14.7% against 12.6%).

Climate

The warmest month is Jul, averaging 81°F (27.4°C), and the coolest is Jan at 59°F (15.0°C). About 1,301 mm (51 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; Jun is the wettest month (208 mm) and Nov the driest (48 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.

Nearby cities to compare

Closest cities in this guide: Meadow Woods (5 miles, rent 9% higher); Alafaya (9 miles, rent 14% higher); St. Cloud (12 miles, rent 4% lower); Kissimmee (12 miles, rent 6% lower). Rent differences are against Orlando; use the Compare tab to put any two cities side by side.
