01 · Roles we staff
IT roles we fill across the DC metro.
Software engineers, cloud architects, cybersecurity specialists, data engineers, systems integrators, and program managers.
GovCloud & FedRAMP engineers
AWS GovCloud and Azure Government engineers who understand FedRAMP, FISMA, and agency-specific ATO processes. Not commercial cloud engineers relabeled as government-ready.
Cybersecurity & ISSO analysts
Security engineers, ISSOs, SOC analysts, and RMF specialists for federal agencies and DoD. NIST 800-53, FISMA, and CMMC experience verified through CyberForce HQ assessments.
Data & AI engineers
Engineers building data platforms for intelligence, defense, and civilian analytics programs. We screen for experience with classified and sensitive data environments.
ServiceNow & ERP specialists
ServiceNow, SAP, and Salesforce developers for federal modernization programs. Not generalists — engineers who have delivered inside government system integrator workflows.
Federal program managers
PMP-certified program and delivery managers for prime and subcontractor programs. We source PMs who have run federal IT delivery — not managed agile sprints for startups.
02 · Why Washington DC
Why companies choose us for DC IT staffing.
Federal IT epicenter, clearance-ready talent, and MBE certification for diversity programs.
SAM.gov registered, MBE certified
Evolve Blue is registered on SAM.gov with a CAGE code on file, NAICS 561320/541512. We are NMSDC MBE Certified. Your procurement team can verify our credentials in minutes — not weeks.
CyberForce HQ + clearance verification
Every candidate is technically assessed through our AI hiring platform. For cleared roles, we verify clearance status and polygraph eligibility during screening — not after the interview. That is the difference between us and a resume vendor.
DMV corridor — real local sourcing
We source across DC, Reston, Tysons, Crystal City, Columbia, Fort Meade, and the full I-495/I-66 corridor. We understand which locations are realistic for in-office agency work and which are not.
Prime and direct vendor
We work as a direct vendor or under prime contractor teaming agreements. We understand sub-contract flow-downs, DCAA compliance, and government task order workflows. This is not new to us.
03 · How we screen
From requirements to a qualified shortlist.
Every candidate is AI-screened and human-reviewed for technical depth and clearance readiness.
Federal-aware intake
You speak with a recruiter who knows the DC market — clearance levels, agency workflows, prime-sub dynamics, and facility access. We scope the role around the real constraints, not just the job description.
CyberForce HQ + clearance check
Our AI platform scores technical depth. For cleared roles, we verify clearance status, polygraph eligibility, and CI/FS investigation currency in parallel. Two checks, one process.
Government fit review
A senior recruiter evaluates government delivery experience, communication style, and contract fit. We reject candidates who have enterprise experience but no understanding of government workflows.
Qualified shortlist — 48 to 72 hours
You receive 3 to 5 candidates with technical scores, clearance verification, and government experience notes. Ready for your interview — not another screening call.
