At NTT DATA, proposals aren’t just responses—they are how we explain complex technology, build trust with government clients, and win work that matters. We’re looking for a Federal Proposal Writer who can turn sophisticated IT solutions, program management models, and company capabilities into clear, persuasive narratives for government customers. This role is ideal for someone who is equally comfortable discussing modern IT architectures and shaping a compelling written story — someone who understands that winning proposals balance technical accuracy, strategic messaging, and reader clarity. The Federal Proposal Writer works closely with a dynamic team of solution architects, capture leads, subject matter experts, and program management professionals to develop high-quality, compliant, and persuasive proposals to federal government agencies. We are looking for more than strong writing skills. We seek someone who understands federal government evaluators and is capable of creating written materials to support top-notch proposals - in a fast-paced, deadline-oriented environment.
