About UZURV
At UZURV, we believe that everyone has the right to get to the places they need and want to go, including work, school, shopping, connecting with friends and family, attending worship services, or just a night out. Many people are able to drive, take public transit, or use a rideshare or taxicab, but about 25% of Americans (and especially older adults and people with disabilities) need assistance for getting out and about. We call it assisted mobility, and that’s what UZURV exists to deliver.
UZURV is a high-growth company that utilizes a technology platform to connect drivers, operating their own vehicles and providers operating wheelchair-accessible vehicles, with older adults and people with disabilities who need assisted mobility in order to get out and about within their communities. Since our founding in Richmond, VA, in 2017, we have grown into a leading national assisted mobility provider by partnering with public transit agencies. Today, we are operating in more than thirty communities across eighteen states and the District of Columbia, and in half of the twenty largest transit agencies in the country. Better still, we are helping meet the transportation needs of millions of riders each year. And it’s not by accident. UZURV has grown, because of the quality of our service. Riders, drivers, and employees give us high marks for our organizational culture, and for the quality and timeliness of our service. Additionally, our state-of-the-art technology enables us to provide an exceptional product at a cost significantly lower than the costs that our clients typically pay for the types of transportation services that we provide.

IT Engineer Jobs in Virginia: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a it engineer in Virginia?
Virginia does not require a state-issued license specifically for IT engineers, so entry depends on education and certifications rather than a licensing board. Most employers expect a bachelor's degree in information technology, computer science, or systems engineering, combined with certifications such as CompTIA Security+, Cisco CCNA, or Microsoft credentials. Candidates pursuing federal contractor roles in Virginia should begin the security clearance process early, as it is a primary differentiator in this market.
Which companies hire it engineers in Virginia?
Employers hiring it engineers in Virginia right now include ID.me, Velos Team, and CACI International, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Virginia's dense concentration of defense contractors and federal agency support firms means hiring is especially active in the Northern Virginia corridor, where proximity to government clients drives steady IT workforce demand.
Which Virginia cities have the most it engineer jobs?
Chantilly, McLean, and Richmond have the most it engineer openings in Virginia. Northern Virginia cities like Arlington and Tysons dominate because of their concentration of federal agencies, intelligence community contractors, and technology headquarters, while Richmond draws IT demand from state government operations and financial services firms, and Hampton Roads benefits from large Navy and defense installation support contracts.
Are there remote it engineer jobs in Virginia?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 41% of it engineer openings tied to Virginia are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting how much of the work involves managing systems, cloud environments, and networks that don't require a fixed physical presence. Roles focused on cybersecurity monitoring, cloud administration, and help desk tier-two support tend to offer the most remote flexibility, while on-site data center and hardware-dependent positions remain largely in-person.
How can I get hired as a it engineer in Virginia with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path in Virginia is through a help desk or IT support associate role, which large employers such as Leidos, Peraton, and SAIC regularly staff as a pipeline into engineering positions. Community colleges like Northern Virginia Community College offer IT certifications and associate degrees that Virginia contractors recognize. Earning a CompTIA A+ or Network+ certification before applying signals readiness, and candidates who begin the security clearance process through an employer sponsoring them gain a significant competitive edge for the federal market.
Where can I find and apply to it engineer jobs in Virginia?
You can find and apply to it engineer jobs in Virginia on Migrate Mate, which lists current Virginia openings from employers actively hiring. Search the listings for roles that match your experience level and specialty, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
