For hiring leaders

Direct-hire recruiting for data and technology teams.

NextAlign helps mid-sized Minneapolis–St. Paul and Upper Midwest companies hire data engineers, BI developers, and other technology professionals.

Data and BI are the specialty.

We recruit people who have built production pipelines, governed reporting environments, and made data useful across the business.

Specialists who can navigate reporting, risk, and compliance without losing sight of delivery.

Hands-on data hires who can work across the warehouse, reporting layer, and ERP ecosystem.

People who can turn product or member data into dependable systems and decisions.
