We understand the compliance, clearance, and documentation requirements that separate professional government IT recruiting from generic staffing — and we build our process around them.

Apply →Federal contractor IT staffing refers to placing IT professionals with companies that hold government contracts. These roles often require compliance documentation, security clearance eligibility, DoD 8570/8140 certifications, and familiarity with NIST 800-53, RMF, and FISMA.
Yes. We work with IT professionals who hold active security clearances (Secret, Top Secret, TS/SCI) as well as candidates who are clearance-eligible. For cleared roles, we discuss clearance status, investigation dates, and polygraph requirements during the initial conversation.
Common requirements include CompTIA Security+ (DoD 8570 IAT Level II), CASP+ or CISSP (IAT Level III), CEH (IASAE), and vendor-specific certifications. RMF Authorization experience is increasingly required for senior government IT positions.
Cleared IT specialists command $50–75/hr for contract positions. Cleared senior systems administrators or security professionals can reach $80–100/hr. Direct hire federal IT roles typically range from $80,000–130,000 depending on clearance level and specialization.
Yes. While many government IT roles remain on-site or hybrid due to security requirements, remote work has expanded in federal contractor environments — particularly for roles that don't require access to classified systems. We clearly identify remote vs. hybrid vs. on-site requirements upfront.
