Job description

AlphaGov (Casa Moon LLC d/b/a AlphaGov) delivers public-sector consulting for cities, counties, school systems, special districts, utilities, and related agencies.

We engage experienced practitioners as project-based collaborators. Engagements are remote-first with occasional client travel. When you authorize it, AlphaGov may name you as an expert collaborator or key personnel on proposals that match your expertise.

• - Hands‑on public‑sector workforce planning, succession planning, or strategic HR planning delivery
• - Ability to lead or support workforce analytics, gap analysis, and stakeholder facilitation
• - Comfortable as a 1099 / project‑based collaborator with travel as needed for client on‑sites

Nice to have:

• - Prior state DOT / transport­ation agency or large state‑agency ……
• - Familiarity with NYS civil service / public workforce environments
