Senior DoW Financial Data Architecture and Integration SME (173-257)

Senior DoW Financial Data Architecture and Integration SME

Tracking Code 173-257 Job Description

RM Advisory Services LLC (RMAS), a licensed CPA firm and Federal small-business contractor, is seeking a Senior DoW Financial Data Architecture and Integration Subject Matter Expert for an anticipated DoW financial-management engagement.

This is a specialized financial-data position - not a general IT architecture role. The successful candidate will have recent, hands-on experience with the Defense Agencies Initiative (DAI), DoD financial data, feeder-system interfaces, fiscal-code alignment, data crosswalks, and financial enterprise architecture. The individual will help the DoW establish traceability between source-system transactions, DAI, financial reports, dashboards, accounting requirements, and audit evidence.

Required Skills

• Support strategic planning, oversight, and implementation of financial data-management and enterprise-architecture initiatives.

• Document how financial information moves from feeder systems through DAI and into general-ledger reports, dashboards, certifications, and audit evidence.

• Reconcile DAI transactions and data populations to supporting feeder systems to identify missing, rejected, duplicated, miscoded, or improperly transformed information.

• Develop and maintain source-to-target mappings, fiscal-code crosswalks, interface mappings, data definitions, business rules, and data-lineage documentation.

• Evaluate proposed fiscal-code, interface, configuration, and system changes to determine their effect on related business processes, financial reports, and downstream systems.

• Support the development and maintenance of authoritative fiscal-code documentation.

• Apply SFIS, USSGL, DoD financial-management, and applicable DON and Marine Corps requirements to financial data and system analyses.

• Identify root causes of data-quality and reconciliation issues involving source systems, interfaces, business rules, transformations, system configurations, or internal controls.

• Establish validation rules and repeatable quality checks for dashboards, financial reports, performance measures, and analytical outputs.

• Develop policies, directives, procedures, governance standards, and implementation guidance supporting consistent financial-data management.

• Represent the organization in fiscal-code, data-governance, financial-system, and enterprise-architecture working groups.

• Advise Marine Corps personnel and external stakeholders on financial-data requirements, architecture decisions, system impacts, and recommended corrective actions.

• Prepare written analyses explaining identified conditions, governing requirements, root causes, financial and system impacts, alternatives, and recommended solutions.

• Coordinate with financial managers, accountants, system owners, data engineers, auditors, and senior Government leaders.

Required Experience

• Active Secret security clearance.

• Bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, information systems, data analytics, business, or a closely related field.

• At least seven years of DoW financial-management, financial-systems, financial-data, or enterprise-architecture experience.

• Recent hands-on DAI experience, preferably within the past three years.

• Demonstrated experience reconciling DAI information to feeder-system or source-system data.

• Experience developing financial data crosswalks, source-to-target mappings, data definitions, business rules, or data-lineage documentation.

• Working knowledge of DoW financial data standards and accounting requirements, including SFIS, USSGL, and the DoD Financial Management Regulation.

• Experience evaluating financial-system interfaces, fiscal-code alignments, data transformations, or configuration changes.

• Ability to translate technical data and system issues into clear financial, accounting, operational, and audit impacts.

• Experience preparing formal analyses, recommendations, procedures, policies, or senior-leadership briefings.

• Ability to participate in occasional onsite meetings at the Pentagon or another National Capital Region location.
