Sunlight — Federal Recompete Radar

GovCon BD and capture teams need to know which contracts are coming up for recompete, how strong the incumbent is, and whether the market is winnable. That category of intelligence is typically sold by commercial platforms at $20K+ per seat per year. Sunlight rebuilds it from free public USASpending data — with transparent, SQL-based scoring that decomposes every number into the award-level evidence behind it.

Current MVP scope: DHS IT services (NAICS 541511 / 541512), FY2020–2025 — 191 candidate contracts and $1.25B in at-stake obligated value, ranked by recompete likelihood, incumbent strength, and market concentration.

1 · Ingest
Python + GitHub Actions
2 · Warehouse
Postgres (Neon)
3 · Model & score
dbt-core, tested SQL
4 · API
FastAPI
5 · Product
Next.js 14

Why it matters if you're hiring: this is the full shape of analytics-engineering work — ingestion through product — built solo with production discipline (orchestration, tested models, explainable scoring). It's the same work a Data or Analytics Engineer does inside a team.
