Our clients span the public and private sectors, and our work helps them solve complex problems, gain insights, and achieve measurable results.

We're seeking talented professionals who are collaborative, curious, and committed to making a difference that thrive at the intersection of data, technology, and business strategy. Whether you're passionate about transforming public programs, enabling executive decision-making, or modernizing legacy systems, you'll find meaningful work and purpose here.

Why You’ll Love Working Here

• Purposeful Projects – Improve systems that serve real people by delivering smarter data, streamlined processes, and strategic insight.
• People-First Culture – We’re as committed to your growth as we are to delivering high-impact solutions. You’ll find support, autonomy, and community here.
• Strategic, Hands-On Work – From data architecture and documentation to client workshops and solution delivery, you’ll influence every step of the process.
• Collaborative Trust – Our clients rely on us to listen carefully, deliver consistently, and guide wisely. We partner with integrity, curiosity, and heart.

What You’ll Do

We are seeking a versatile Project Manager / Business Analyst (PM/BA) to serve as the strategic lead for the Data Migration and Data Integration workstreams of a major enterprise application implementation. In this dual-capacity role, you will be the "bridge" between functional business stakeholders and technical execution teams. You will lead the end-to-end requirements elicitation process while simultaneously driving the project schedule, risk mitigation, and delivery of the data migration phase.

While you don't need to write code, you must possess a deep conceptual understanding of the data lifecycle - from extraction and transformation to loading and validation.

1. Requirements Elicitation & Business Analysis

• Lead Stakeholder Sessions: Facilitate workshops with agency subject matter experts (SMEs) to identify source systems, data ownership, and "to-be" state requirements.
• Define Data Mapping: Document complex data mapping requirements, including source-to-target logic, data transformation rules, and business-critical validations.
• Gap Analysis: Identify discrepancies between legacy data structures and the new application’s architecture, proposing functional workarounds or data cleanup strategies.
• Quality & Integrity Standards: Define "Definition of Done" for data quality, ensuring requirements include clear acceptance criteria for data accuracy and completeness.

2. Project Management & Implementation Leadership

• Drive the Migration Lifecycle: Own the project plan for the data migration phase, tracking milestones from initial discovery through final cutover.
• Risk & Issue Management: Proactively identify data-specific risks (e.g., poor source data quality, security/privacy constraints) and develop mitigation plans.
• Resource Coordination: Act as the primary point of contact for technical teams, ensuring they have the functional clarity needed to build ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) pipelines.
• Cutover Planning: Lead the development of the "Go-Live" runbook for data migration, coordinating timing and dependencies to minimize agency downtime.

Unique Challenges You’ll Navigate

• Legacy Complexity: Navigating dated systems with limited documentation.
• Data Governance: Ensuring compliance with state and federal data privacy regulations.
• Validation Logic: Moving beyond "it looks right" to structured, repeatable data reconciliation processes.

Requirements

What You Bring

• Proven Track Record: At least 5–7 years of experience in PM or BA roles, with a demonstrable focus on Data Migration or Data Integration projects.
• Methodology Mastery: Deep understanding of various migration approaches (e.g., Big Bang vs. Phased) and integration patterns (e.g., Real-time vs. Batch).
• Facilitation Skills: Expert-level ability to lead diverse groups through complex decision-making processes.
• Communication: Ability to translate technical data challenges into plain language for executive leadership.

Preferred Qualifications

• Familiarity with government procurement, security standards, or agency-specific data hurdles.
• Experience with Data Profiling tools or concepts.
• Familiarity with Master Data Management (MDM) principles.
• Knowledge of UAT (User Acceptance Testing) design specifically for data sets.
