Why This Role Rocks

Who wouldn't want to be a Federal Data Engineer? In this role, your work doesn't just crunch numbers-it drives decisions that shape national defense. You'll get your hands on some of the largest, most complex datasets out there, transforming raw information into insights that matter.

Think of it like this:
  • You're the architect of pipelines that fuel strategy.
  • You're the problem-solver who takes messy, disparate data and makes it work.
  • You're the trusted expert helping federal leaders make informed, mission-critical decisions.

This is not your average desk job. This is high-impact, high-visibility work where data meets defense.
What You'll Do
  • Gather, clean, and validate data from multiple sources.
  • Build and maintain databases in Teradata and Databricks using robust ETL pipelines.
  • Identify opportunities to make processes leaner, faster, and smarter.
  • Create dashboards and reports that tell a clear story for decision-makers.
  • Dive into large, unstructured datasets to uncover actionable insights.
  • Work side by side with client stakeholders to support requirements and analysis.
  • Ensure data meets strict privacy, compliance, and defense security standards.
What We're Looking For
  • 3-10 years of experience in a data-focused role (federal experience = a plus).
  • Strong skills in SQL and Python (automation and analysis are your thing).
  • Knowledge of databases and scripting.
  • Experience with Databricks, Snowflake, or Redshift.
  • Familiarity with visualization tools (Cognos, Tableau, Qlik, etc.).
  • Strong ETL background: building pipelines, combining sources, optimizing flows.
  • Teradata expertise (Multiloads, BTEQs, etc.) strongly preferred.
  • Bachelor's and/or Master's degree from an accredited university.
Why You'll Love It
  • You'll directly support federal missions that matter.
  • You'll expand your toolkit with modern data platforms.
  • You'll be part of a high-energy, problem-solving team.
  • You'll have the stability of federal projects with the excitement of cutting-edge tech .


Ready to turn data into defense strategy? Apply today and put your skills to work where they'll have maximum impact.
