Everforth ECS CS is seeking a Senior Project Analyst to work in our Fairfax, VA office.

Everforth ECS is seeking a Senior Project Analyst to join our Information Management (IM) team in Fairfax, VA, supporting a large-scale federal data services program. This is a cross-functional role at the intersection of project management, business analysis, and information management - ideal for a versatile professional who thrives in ambiguity, brings structure to complexity, and can engage confidently with both clients and technical teams.

Our program is responsible for designing, building, deploying, operating, and maintaining a comprehensive data solution that collects, normalizes, visualizes, and shares cybersecurity data across more than 100 federal agencies. The integrated platform spans multiple Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS) products, software configuration packages, and custom code - all operating as a unified solution meeting the requirements of a federal cabinet-level department.

We are seeking professionals who thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced, and highly collaborative environment where problem-solving, critical thinking, and mission-driven thinking are essential. Our program operates within the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe). An aptitude and enthusiasm for continuous learning and improvement is a must.

Role Overview

The Senior Project Analyst serves as a versatile contributor and client-facing liaison within the Information Management team. This individual will support project planning and execution, requirements gathering, process documentation, and information architecture - bridging the gap between technical execution and stakeholder communication. The ideal candidate brings a blend of business analysis, project coordination, and knowledge management capabilities, and is comfortable owning work streams with limited direction in a fast-moving program environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Direct Client Consultation & Requirements Elicitation: Sit directly with federal clients, program owners, and agency stakeholders to lead discovery sessions, elicit functional/operational requirements, and translate complex mission problems into clear technical requirements. Manage competing priorities across multiple work streams, maintaining clarity and momentum without constant direction.
  • Agile Project Management & Delivery Execution: Take independent ownership of client workstreams. Track project tasks, milestones, and risks using Jira; actively support sprint planning, backlog grooming, and Program Increment (PI) Planning activities within the SAFe framework.
  • Cross-Functional Communication Liaison: Serve as the primary communication bridge across engineering, operations, and client teams. Translate complex technical data architectural concepts into accessible, polished language for non-technical executive audiences.
  • Information Architecture & Knowledge Governance: Apply information architecture principles to structure, organize, and maintain high-fidelity client knowledge repositories across platforms (Confluence, SharePoint, etc.). Establish content taxonomies and metadata standards to ensure discoverability. Collaborate on the development and delivery of end-user training, agency onboarding materials, and guidance documentation for federal agency stakeholders.
  • Operational Process Optimization: Independently develop, document, and refine client-facing process workflows, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and program governance frameworks aligned to mission objectives. Contribute to knowledge sharing initiatives that support a culture of continuous improvement across the program
  • Client Engagement & Strategic Briefings: Prepare and deliver high-level presentations, status communications, and strategic change-management briefings directly to federal executive leadership and agency personnel.
  • Adoption & Technical Onboarding Support: Collaborate on the development and delivery of end-user training, onboarding materials, and guidance documentation directly for federal agency stakeholders to maximize platform adoption.

About the Company

ECS Federal LLC

ECS was founded in 2001 by experienced IT professionals with a commitment to quality processes, people and performance. Led by our Chairman, Roy Kapani, and an experienced executive leadership team, ECS provides our customers with solutions and services that support their critical needs and further mission objectives. This commitment has paved the way for expansive growth, year over year.

ECS gained market share in 2011 in the Department of Defense and Federal spaces through both organic and acquisition growth. In May, ECS completed its first strategic acquisition with the purchase of OAK Management, Inc., a leading provider of marine environmental services, ship systems engineering, maritime consulting and platform acquisition management. The OAK acquisition kicked off ECS’ intention to add tactical acquisitions as a part of its long term strategy to supplement and expand upon organic growth and to build enterprise value. ECS closed out 2011 with the acquisition of Paradigm Technologies, Inc. The Paradigm transaction added approximately 200 employees to ECS’ existing 900+ employees. Paradigm also added new Defense clients for ECS, including the Missile Defense Agency, the Navy’s Program Executive Officer for Integrated Warfare Systems, the United States Marine Corps, and the U.S. Marshals Service.

In 2012, ECS completed the acquisition of iLuMinA Solutions, Inc. iLuMinA brings large-scale Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software implementation and infrastructure design and development to ECS’ expanding capabilities.

ECS will continue to invest in corporate infrastructure and quality processes as we grow and enhance our ability to offer professional excellence to both our customers and our employees.
