Data. Learning. Integration. Veteran-led.

Senior data engineers and instructional designers, from GEICO, Wells Fargo, Capital Group, and Blue Cross Blue Shield, building governed data platforms, standards-based system integration, and training that ships. Federal-ready from day one.

Value Proposition

An engineering firm that builds.

Edgent is an engineering firm. We design, engineer, and ship production platforms and governed data systems, and we prove it with VForce, our own governed data & AI platform. We specialize in the data substrate, the governed, infrastructure-agnostic foundation every data platform needs. You get outcomes and owned software from senior engineers and master's-level designers.

We specialize in the data substrate

Our engineering focus is the substrate for data, the governed foundation your platform stands on. Swap the warehouse, key store, storage, broker, or cloud by configuration; your data, governance, and workloads stay portable and vendor-neutral.

agnostic · portable · governed

End-to-end delivery

Product engineers who ship systems end to end, architecture, build, deploy, operate. VForce is the proof: we built a governed lakehouse, orchestration, and AI platform, and we deliver client solutions on it.

A senior bench with real depth

Distinguished-Engineer-caliber talent from GEICO, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Capital Group, and Wells Fargo, alongside master's-level instructional designers. People who set the standard, not just meet it.

10 professionals

Governed & compliant by design

FERPA and HIPAA, encryption, PII/PHI protection, and a tamper-evident audit are built in, not bolted on. Regulated missions are our default, not an exception.

FERPA · HIPAA · secure-by-default

You own the outcome

You own the software and the data. Open formats, open standards, and deployment on any cloud or your own infrastructure, no lock-in, no rip-and-replace.

Engineering + instructional design

Two disciplines under one roof, we build the system and the training that makes it stick. Not one or the other.

Excellence, by design

Stability, Scalability, Security, Speed, Simplicity, Supportability, the six S's are how we engineer, and how we ask to be judged.

The Platform We're Building

VForce, a governed data & AI platform for regulated missions

Beyond services, Edgent is building VForce: a governed lakehouse, orchestration, and AI platform where security, privacy, and compliance are enforced by policy, on the infrastructure you choose.

Governed access & privacy

Relationship, role, and attribute-based access control with dynamic data masking and small-group suppression, each user sees only the PII/PHI their role and purpose permit.

ReBAC · RBAC · ABAC · masking

FERPA & HIPAA by design

A configurable compliance profile per tenant, de-identification, minimum-necessary access, retention, and breach workflow, with a tamper-evident audit of every access and change.

FERPA · HIPAA · NY §2-d

Encryption end to end

Encryption at rest and in transit, plus field-level encryption for the most sensitive PII and PHI. Bring your own key, rotate without downtime, and crypto-shred on demand.

at rest · in transit · field-level · BYOK

Healthcare & education interoperability

FHIR for healthcare data exchange, Ed-Fi and OneRoster for education, plus API and SFTP connectors, standards-based integration with the systems you already run.

FHIR · Ed-Fi · OneRoster

Run on any cloud, or your own

Deploy on AWS, Azure, GCP, a FedRAMP-class environment, or your self-managed Kubernetes. Bring your own infrastructure; swap the key store, storage, or database by configuration.

Open & portable

Built on permissive open source and open table formats. Your data stays in open formats and exports anytime, no vendor lock-in.
