Data Engineer & Analyst — Federal Analytics Consulting
Location: Washington, DC Metro Area — Hybrid (3 days remote / 2 days on-site) Employment Type: Contract / 1099 / Contract-to-Hire, converting to full-time as you prove yourself Eligibility: U.S. Citizenship or Permanent Residence with 3 years required (client requirement; will involve additional suitability/clearance processing)
Why This Role
Most data roles keep you three steps removed from the people who actually use your work. This one doesn't. You'll sit with federal stakeholders, understand the mission they're driving toward, and build the pipelines and insights that move it forward — work with a direct, visible line to outcomes that matter to real citizens.
We're hiring a Data Engineer and Analyst who's equally at home writing production-grade Python and Spark as they are standing in front of a client explaining why a trend in the data should change how they operate. You won't just execute tickets — you'll be trusted to dig into a client's data, spot the opportunity they hadn't thought to ask for, and make the case for it.
This is a contract-to-hire position on a hybrid schedule (3 days remote, 2 days on-site in the DC metro area), with conversion to full-time — health insurance, 401(k), and all — once you've shown you're a fit. Can consider contract on a 1099 basis as well depending on the fit.
What You'll Do
What You Bring
Nice to Have
Who We're Looking For
Someone who wants to know why the data looks the way it does, not just what it says. Someone who'd rather propose a better approach than quietly execute the one they were handed. Someone who can move from a terminal to a client meeting without missing a beat — and who takes real pride in work that's both technically sound and genuinely useful to the people who depend on it.
Compensation & Benefits
Market-competitive pay. Full benefits — including health insurance and a 401(k) — upon conversion to full-time.
