About The Position

Savantage Solutions is seeking a Federal Financial Management System Analyst to join our onsite federal support team. This is a growth-track role built for an early-career accounting professional ready to move beyond traditional financial operations into AI-assisted research, self-service data analysis, and citizen development. You will operate at the intersection of federal financial accounting and modern low-code/AI tooling, independently building reports and queries, validating financial data, and supporting agency stakeholders without routing every request through senior technical staff. The role is structured around three capability tiers that define both your day-one responsibilities and your 18-month growth trajectory. High performers will advance into senior functional analyst and program support roles.

Requirements

• 2–4 years of federal accounting or federal financial management experience
• Demonstrated understanding of federal appropriations accounting: budget authority, obligations, expenditures, and USSGL account structures
• Working knowledge of Treasury Financial Manual (TFM) guidance and federal financial reconciliation practices
• Ability to interpret financial data and identify discrepancies without requiring technical staff support
• Strong written and verbal communication skills; comfortable presenting findings directly to government stakeholders
• Intellectual curiosity and demonstrated willingness to learn new tools—AI, low-code platforms, and data analysis environments
• U.S. citizenship and ability to obtain and maintain a federal security clearance (Public Trust minimum)

Nice To Haves

• Direct exposure to IPAC (Intra-Governmental Payment and Collection), GTAS, or CARS/GWA transaction processing
• Familiarity with G-Invoicing reimbursable agreement lifecycle (GT&C → Order → Performance → Settlement)
• Knowledge of OMB Circular A-123 internal controls or A-136 financial reporting requirements
• Experience with payroll, bankcard, or reimbursable activity accounting in a federal agency environment
• CPA, CGFM (Certified Government Financial Manager), or CDFM (Certified Defense Financial Manager) certification or active pursuit.
• Using AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, or similar) to assist with data analysis, query generation, or research tasks
• Exposure to Oracle APEX, Oracle ERP, or similar enterprise financial platforms
• Basic familiarity with SQL concepts — ability to read a query and understand what it is retrieving
• Experience writing business requirements, functional specs, or structured user stories in a federal IT context
• Familiarity with CMMI or ISO 9001 quality management processes and structured SDLC workflows

Responsibilities

• Interpret query results against federal accounting logic — USSGL account structures, appropriations lifecycle, fund balance with the Treasury
• Identify when an AI-generated report answer is financially incorrect, incomplete, or misaligned with agency business rules
• Reconcile financial data across general ledger, sub-ledger, and Treasury reporting systems
• Support IPAC, GTAS, and CARS/GWA transaction validation and exception research
• Communicate findings clearly to federal agency stakeholders without senior staff intermediation
• Use AI-assisted query tools to independently build ad-hoc financial reports against the agency ERP database
• Compose and refine natural language prompts to retrieve accurate financial data; validate outputs before delivery
• Package and present AI-generated findings in formats suitable for agency financial managers and auditors
• Identify data anomalies, reconciliation gaps, and trend deviations through self-service analysis
• Maintain a personal library of validated, reusable prompt templates for common financial research scenarios
• Document research methodology to support audit trail and repeatability requirements
• Configure and modify basic Oracle APEX reports and dashboards using low-code tools and AI assistance
• Write and validate simple SQL queries with AI-assisted generation; understand output well enough to catch errors
• Participate in SIT and UAT cycles with sufficient technical literacy to write reproducible defect reports
• Support requirements documentation and SCR intake for system enhancements
• Execute basic configuration changes under developer review and approval workflow

Benefits

• Competitive compensation
• Growth-track role
• Opportunity to advance into senior functional analyst and program support roles
• Commitment to providing competitive compensation
• Diversity is an asset to any industry or organization
• Innovation is only nurtured in an environment that embraces creativity and open minds
• Thrive on the ideas and perspectives generated by a diverse workforce
