## Job description

This position is contingent upon contract award. Leidos is seeking a Data Engineer to support the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Summit Advanced Tooling, Lakehouse, and Artificial Intelligence Services (ATLAS) program. The engineer will work with VA customers, data owners, analysts, and platform teams to onboard data sources and deliver reliable, analytics-ready data products using approved Summit engineering and governance patterns.

Remote work within CONUS is subject to VA security and system-access requirements. Must support Eastern Time collaboration and applicable production coverage. Occasional after-hours or weekend support may be required for critical outages or planned maintenance.

Perform source-to-target reconciliation, freshness checks, data quality validation, and defect remediation; document evidence for customer acceptance. Implement approved access, metadata, lineage, and security requirements in coordination with governance and security teams. Monitor pipeline health and performance, troubleshoot failed loads and data discrepancies, and support production incidents and corrective actions.

Document pipeline configurations, dependencies, runbooks, and handoffs; contribute improvements to reusable templates and automation. Coordinate customer onboarding and technical handover with Summit platform and customer enablement teams.

Demonstrated ability to independently implement data pipelines using established design and deployment patterns. Ability to obtain and maintain the required VA Public Trust suitability determination (Tier 2/Moderate Risk).

### Preferred Qualifications

Highly Preferred: Direct, hands-on experience supporting the VA Summit Data Platform is highly preferred; experience with other VA enterprise data and analytics environments is also valuable. Experience working directly with customer teams to translate data requirements into accepted, production-ready datasets. Hands-on Microsoft Azure data engineering experience, including Azure Data Factory, Azure Data Lake Storage, Azure Databricks, Spark, or comparable services.

Familiarity with Delta Lake/lakehouse architectures, data catalogs and lineage, and governance tools such as Collibra, Immuta, or Starburst.
