Original job description

The Capabilities, Analysis and Development (CAD) division of Applied Research Associates, Inc. (ARA) has an outstanding opportunity for a Junior Program Evaluation Specialist to support a multi-disciplinary team providing data analysis, business intelligence, operations research, and decision support across the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) mission space. As a Junior Program Evaluation Specialist, you will support evidence-building, program assessment, and data-driven decision-making for DHS Science & Technology (S&T) research and innovation portfolios and other DHS components. This position assists senior evaluators and program managers in developing logic models, collecting data, and conducting basic analyses that inform S&T’s applied research, technology transition, and operational capability development. This role is ideal for early-career individuals passionate about solving real operational problems.

Key Responsibilities:

Assist in developing evaluation plans aligned with the Foundations for Evidence-Based Policymaking Act (Evidence Act), DHS evaluation policies, and S&T strategic priorities.
Support creation of logic models, theories of change, and performance metrics for RDT&E programs.
Conduct foundational data collection and validation activities (interviews, surveys, literature reviews, document analysis, data analysis).
Perform entry-level qualitative and quantitative analyses under supervision.
Prepare draft summaries, visualizations, and findings for internal review.
Help track evaluation tasks, timelines, and documentation across multiple projects.
Ensure compliance with DHS data governance, privacy, and information security standards.
Participate in learning agenda activities and assist with compiling evidence inventories.

Required Qualifications:

Foundational knowledge of program evaluation, social science research, or performance measurement.
Must be a US citizen.
Bachelors degree with 2-4 years of experience OR masters degree with 0-2 years of experience.
Ability to collect and organize data reliably.
Interest in homeland security, science and technology, or applied research environments.
Ability to work with multidisciplinary teams.
Flexibility to know when other methods may be appropriate.

Preferred Qualifications:

Experience (internships, coursework, or projects) in evaluation, data analysis, or program assessment.
Familiarity with Evidence Act principles, DHS mission areas, or federal RDT&E processes.

Working Conditions:

Work will be remote with occasional travel to client site and potential evaluation sites. Client offices are at DHS’ St. Elizabeth campus in Washington, D.C.

Compensation & Benefits: Pay Ranges: From $87,000.00 - $116,000.00 per year based on years of experience, degree and any special skills and knowledge that you may bring to the position. We mostly reserve the upper half of our compensation bands for internal growth. During all call with one of our recruiters or hiring managers, they can further clarify the salary range and total compensation.
