If you’ve been building your skills in SQL, data engineering fundamentals, and mission‑driven development, and you’re ready for work that actually moves the needle, this is the kind of opportunity cleared engineers pursue when they want to grow while making real impact. If you take pride in your craft, enjoy solving meaningful data problems, and want your work to support a mission with visibility at senior levels, you’ll thrive here.
We’re hiring a SQL Engineer to support a high‑visibility, data‑driven application that powers analytics and reporting across the organization. In this role, you’ll write complex queries, shape data for dashboards, ensure data accuracy, and deliver reliable datasets that stakeholders depend on every day. You’ll work closely with dashboard developers and application teams to provide clean, consistent, and easy‑to‑consume data for mission users. Our primary development team operates out of Gaithersburg, MD, but innovation doesn’t stop there. We’re able to support onsite engineers in Alexandria, VA; Aurora, CO; St. Louis, MO; and Tucson, AZ, giving top talent multiple paths to join the mission.
And while the requisition requirements may seem standard fare, the position is not; as it will join a high performing team that is changing the way digital engineering and mission operations intelligence is enabled for our customer.
