What you'll do:

• Analyze program and operational data to identify trends, insights, risks, and opportunities.
• Develop dashboards, reports, visualizations, and other analytic products that make complex information easier to understand and act on.
• Engage directly with customers and stakeholders to gather requirements, understand business needs, and translate those needs into useful data and technology solutions.
• Present findings and recommendations clearly to both technical and nontechnical audiences.
• Support recurring and ad hoc reporting and help improve or automate existing reporting processes.
• Work alongside technical teams to understand requirements, dependencies, risks, and priorities across data and software initiatives.
• Support technical program management activities, including tracking requirements, decisions, deliverables, action items, and project progress.
• Participate in technical discussions involving databases, data schemas, software systems, integrations, and related technologies.
• Support data governance, documentation, process development, and continuous improvement efforts.
• Adapt to evolving program needs and take on new responsibilities as the program and technical environment mature.

Qualifications

• Secret clearance required.
• Experience in data analysis, business analytics, program analysis, or a related field.
• Strong data visualization and storytelling skills, with experience developing reports, dashboards, or other analytic products.
• Experience working directly with customers or stakeholders to gather, clarify, and translate requirements.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills and the ability to communicate effectively with both technical and nontechnical audiences.
• Experience with or exposure to Python or R; advanced programming expertise is not required.
• Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple priorities.
• Ability and interest in learning new systems, technologies, and technical concepts.
• Experience with Power BI, Databricks, ServiceNow, Power Automate, or similar tools preferred but not required.
• Familiarity with database concepts, data schemas, data governance, or software development environments preferred.
• ServiceNow administration or development experience is a plus.
• Previous experience supporting federal government clients or exposure to cybersecurity programs is a plus.

Next Steps:

If your application looks like a match, someone from our People Operations team will reach out to schedule a phone screening. During this conversation, we will determine if the current or future position aligns with your experience and skills. If things go well, from there you'll meet with members from the project team, including the hiring manager and teammates, and possibly be asked to submit a writing assessment to showcase your practical knowledge. If we find you are a match, you’ll get a call offering you the role. While we wish we could hire every great candidate who comes our way, the reality is that we can't. If you are not selected, we will be sure to connect with you and let you know so you can move on with your search. We will also keep your resume for future needs.
