NeatDevs LLC
Senior Agile Business Analyst
Ashburn, VA
·
Full time
NeatDevs LLC is a small federal subcontractor with a long-running seat on a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) program in Ashburn, VA. We are hiring a Senior Agile Business Analyst to lead requirements analysis on an Agile team modernizing mission-critical CBP systems - decomposing epics into clear, testable user stories and keeping Jira and Confluence the source of truth. The team increasingly uses AI-assisted tools (Google Gemini) to speed requirements work. U.S. citizenship is required (federal contract); you must be able to obtain a DHS/CBP Public Trust - an active or recent clearance shortens your start date but is not a gate. Hybrid: on-site in Ashburn, VA about one day per week, remote the rest.
