Federal IT services focused on cloud modernization and cybersecurity
Akumen is a 51–200 person federal contractor built on Azure, AWS, and Java/Python, now actively replacing Angular and C# codebases while scaling automated testing and secure CI/CD pipelines. The hiring surge is heavily tilted toward senior engineers (7 of 10 roles) in engineering and data, signaling both a modernization lift and a shift toward analytics-driven federal programs rather than pure infrastructure work.
Akumen delivers IT services to federal government agencies, with a focus on cloud migration, data analytics, and cybersecurity. Founded in 1989 and headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the company operates a Microsoft Azure and AWS technology footprint, supported by engineering teams building modern data platforms, automated testing frameworks, and secure deployment pipelines. Their active portfolio spans legacy application upgrades, federal compliance and monitoring, and cloud automation for mission-critical systems.
Akumen runs primarily on Azure (Azure DevOps, Functions, App Service, Logic Apps) and AWS, with Java, Python, Spring Boot, React, and PostgreSQL. Jenkins and Ansible handle CI/CD and infrastructure automation. ServiceNow is their primary enterprise platform.
Primary projects include upgrading legacy Angular, C#, and Java applications; implementing secure CI/CD pipelines; building scalable data pipelines and modern data platforms; and deploying automated test frameworks across Azure and ServiceNow environments for federal programs.
